Restoring Trust in Your Relationship
Many couples in addiction recovery understand the behavioral recovery needed, but struggle to do the emotional accountability also needed to help heal relationship trauma. LifeStar of St. George has a brief but excellent podcast to help couples understand the need for emotional safety, emotional presence and emotional accountability if couples want to be a strong and secure base for each other.
Check out this audio and learn how emotional accountability helps restore trust and repair the wounds in the relationship whether there’s been addiction, infidelity or any painful betrayal that can occur in a marriage.
This podcast has had a transforming effect on many of my clients. It really helps them to stay focused on working on their own stuff and to grasp the gravity of their spouse’s experience. They are better able to empathize more fully with where their spouse is and have compassion for them instead of blaming them.
