Understanding Infidelity: Challenges and Breakthroughs with Dr. Monique Thompson

What a great conversation in this episode!
I speak with infidelity expert and psychotherapist Dr. Monique Thompson. With 24 years of experience and a specialization in betrayal trauma recovery, Dr. Thompson delineates her definition of cheating, focusing on non-consent within various relationship structures.
The discussion covers predictors of infidelity, such as relationship dissatisfaction and inability to self-soothe, and emphasizes the importance of authentic communication. Dr. Thompson also highlights the significance of EMDR therapy for trauma recovery in relationships. The episode aims to help listeners understand the complex dynamics of infidelity and encourage authentic living in relationships.
This is so helpful if you or anyone you know is moving through infidelity and the pain that comes with it.
