38: Transparency After Betrayal

In this episode of the Helping Couples Heal podcast, Marnie
and Duane discuss the importance of full
transparency in a relationship traumatized by
betrayal. Often we hear from hopeless partners who are in so
much pain because after the discovery of
betrayal, there remains a lack of integrity, specifically
when it comes to full transparency.  


Full transparency allows a partner to move from a
place of trauma and despair to a place of security, trust, and
healing. To those who have betrayed their partner, helping your
partner and your relationship heal from betrayal trauma requires
full transparency and the willingness to consistently provide
evidence of fidelity and honesty when
requested. Recognizing that a partner is seeking safety
after discovery and taking action to provide full transparency
without resistance, defensiveness, or anger is essential to
relational healing.
