— why this matters
Infidelity is one of the most destabilizing experiences a couple can face — and one of the most complex to treat
Betrayal ruptures trust, distorts identity, and often reactivates old wounds — making it far more than a relationship problem. Therapists who work with infidelity need more than communication tools. They need a framework for the full psychological and sexual impact of what their clients are carrying.
This course gives you that framework — built from Dr. Westberg’s two decades of clinical experience helping couples navigate betrayal and rebuild their sexual and emotional lives.

Eight modules — from recognition to repair
— what you will learn
Skills you’ll walk away with
01
Recognize Betrayal Trauma
Identify how betrayal and sexual abuse present in clients and in the couple’s sexual relationship — before the client can name it themselves.
02
Set Appropriate Treatment Goals
Build treatment plans that account for the full complexity of betrayal — not just the relational rupture, but the sexual and identity-level damage underneath.
03
Avoid Re-Traumatization
Know which standard interventions backfire with betrayal clients — and how to adapt your approach to protect rather than destabilize.
04
Work With Identity and Worth
Address the identity-level damage that betrayal causes — and help clients rebuild a grounded, stable sense of self and sexual worth.
05
Manage Trauma Responses In-Session
Use specific interventions for clients who experience flashbacks, dissociation, or shutdown during sexual intimacy — in real time.
06
Support Genuine Healing
Move clients beyond survival and toward real recovery — using interventions that address the sexual, emotional, and relational dimensions of healing.
