Will I Ever Feel Normal Again?

As angry, hurt and traumatized as you... the partner... or the spouse may be feeling, there is the promise of a meaningful and fulfilling life after sex addiction. This promise begins with intensive work on understanding the impact sex addiction has had on you and that healing and recovery is available to you as an individual and as a couple. This part of the journey includes gaining insights, tools and understanding of sexual addiction and how to create healthy boundaries and changes in your behavior that enabled the addict in your life to perpetuate a secret life of compulsivity and recklessness. This is an opportunity for you and your coupleship to move from powerlessness and crisis to creating an intentional, loving and connected relationship.

Not all relationships can or will survive sex addiction. At SerenityWorks™ Life Coaching we believe that our unique coaching approach can improve your ability to grow from sex addiction and move forward so that you can have the life and love you desire.

If you are suffering in silence or experiencing pain or confusion about your partner’s addiction, weekly individual coaching sessions and support groups have been developed to help you gain greater understanding of how your partner’s addiction affects your everyday life. Here are just some of the topics covered in the individual sessions and support groups:

• Coping skills to deal with the traumatic effect of your spouse’s addiction
• How did I not know this was going on?
• Who is safe to tell?
• Why you are not to blame for your partner’s addiction?
• Learn healthy boundaries; create safety for yourself and partner
• What is codependence and coaddiction, do I identify with some of these traits?
• You did not cause it, you can’t control it, you can’t cure it
• What if your partner relapses, do you stay or leave, what’s your bottom line?
• How to trust your partner again?
• Create long term strategies for successful growth and healing
