**Online Group for Clients**

The experience of being betrayed is an enormous wound for a trusting partner. It feels as if the ground upon which you stand has now been cracked wide open by what feels like an earthquake. Women* need space to recover and explore how they will choose to move forward after their husband, partner, wife or boyfriend is unfaithful. In this new online women's group Reclaiming Oneself After Partner Infidelity, Kelly will introduce ideas and concepts that can guide women to help themselves and one another in the 6-week virtual group starting in June as they forge a new future life whether with their partner/spouse or on their own.

About this Group

Kelly Gweinem LCSW Associate Coach at Sex Esteem, LLC is starting a 6-week group this June to help women heal from the pain of betrayal by learning skills to regain their power. By doing a deep dive on what they now want regarding boundaries, honesty and intimacy for healthier relationship with themselves, their current partner and/or partners in their future, this group will provide a safe space for women to explore their anger, hurt, distrust, mourning and relational ambivalence. Whether a woman has already decided to remain with their partner/spouse, are still in the decision-making process, have decided to end the relationship or have had that decision made by their partner, this group will provide tools to recover, repair and reclaim each woman's empowerment.

* this group is for all people who self-identify as women
