Infidelity is a frequent presenting concern in couple therapy. Although a common reason given for divorce, many couples seek treatment to heal their relationship rather than divorce as a result of an affair. This symposium will review couple therapy practices used in treating affairs and explore the treatment of infidelity using Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy. Often infidelity results in a breach of trust leading to devastating consequences. EFT conceptualizes infidelity as a type of attachment injure where a fundamental breach of trust inhibits partner’s ability to resolve an affair and potential long standing patterns of distance and distress. EFT provides a multi-step approach to resolving attachment injuries that has demonstrated empirical support resolving attachment injuries and moving couples toward healing. This workshop provides an approach to the assessment and treatment of these injuries using the EFT Attachment Injury Resolution Model (AIRM). The presentation includes original research examining the relationship of attachment security and recovery from infidelity. The symposium will include video and case demonstration illustrating key moments in the process or Attachment Injury resolution and therapist practices necessary for restoring healing and safety to a couple’s relationship. Participants will be able to: Identify characteristics of attachment injuries and their influence on couple relationships; Identify attachment strategies and their influence on patterns of couple distress; Conceptualize the treatment of attachment injuries through the Attachment Injury Resolution Model (AIRM); Identify EFT interventions and processes that enables couples to move toward healing from an affair.
