If you are not only processing the pain of divorce but also reeling from the pain of betrayal after divorce, you might be feeling like learning to trust again after divorce and infidelity is an uphill battle. This is why I consulted with Miami-based marriage and family therapist Gilza Fort-Martinez, on her strategies for helping clients overcome trust issues after an affair.
“Betrayal is a loss. It’s a grieving process that happens from being hit with something that was very often unexpected, Gilza Fort-Martinez says. “Most of the time, people are somewhat blindsided.”
But there IS hope, Gilza shares, and she also shares her tips for how to feel hopeful again after a divorce that ended because of a betrayal, too.
A graduate of University of Miami, Gilza is the founder and CEO of Resolution Counseling Center, a private practice in Miami, Florida. Her passion for helping individuals improve their lives drives her to continuously find ways to reach the community, which is why when she’s not working directly with individuals and couples, she can be found leading a workshop or lecturing on a wide range of topics including stress management, building intimacy, improving communication effectiveness, infidelity and forgiveness, and navigating life transitions
