How to Rebuild Your Spouse's Trust After An Affair

Cheating damages loving relationships and breaks trust. After an extramarital affair has occurred, the relationship is often so strained that one or both parties may consider ending the marriage. Emotional infidelity can be just as devastating to the relationship as a physical affair, and research shows that least one or both parties in half of all couples will break their vows of sexual or emotional exclusivity during the lifetime of the relationship.

Here at Gateway Counseling, we specialize in affair recovery counseling. Let us help you resolve any issues in your marriage and restore your peace of mind. The most recent threat to marriage appears innocently at first- friendships at work or online that cross the blurred line into romantic love. For both sides- the betrayed and the partner who committed the infidelity- this can be a very traumatic and painful time.

If you participated in an affair and want to save your marriage now, please call Gateway Counseling at 561-797-0631. Your first appointment will be a free consultation where we assess your infidelity issue, inform you of how we would begin the recovery process, and discuss how comfortable you are with your therapist. Afterward, sessions are scheduled based on your need- everyone is different.

How to Break Free From Post Holiday Blues

The holidays are over, and New Year's celebrations have become last week's event. Parents and relatives have gone back home, and the greenery and ornaments have been put away until next year. For many of us, its time to go back to work after an extended week of holiday vacation. But is everyone ready to resume their normal routine?

After all the holiday parties and exchanging of gifts, it can be a little hard to find something to look forward to in the beginning of the year. This type of gloom is actually normal, but if you find that your mood is affecting your quality of work or your relationship with coworkers, family, and friends, it may be time to reach out and talk to someone.

The reason why post-holiday depression is typical is because of something called "seasonal affective disorder", or SAD. SAD is a type of depression that occurs in the winter season, when the days grow short and a lack of sunlight deprives people of their usual amount of Vitamin D. For those of us spending long days in the office, without any sun, depression can run rampant. Be sure to take time out of your work day to soak in some sun! If possible, have lunch outside, take a walk around the building or down the street. Just being outside for 30 minutes can do wonders for your mood.

If you find yourself struggling to meet deadlines or keep up with your job's demands after the holidays, you may be stuck in a post-holiday funk. Here at Gateway Counseling Center, our counselors are always here to help you.

Happy January,
