Description
One common reason couples seek therapy is for support in healing after an experience of infidelity, yet minimal research studies have been published on the treatment of infidelity. This study aims to explore the effectiveness of Internal Family Systems therapy (IFS) and the Intimacy From then Inside Out model (IFIO) on treating and repairing relationship rupture after an infidelity betrayal experience has occurred within a couple’s relationship. To accomplish this, a group of screened participants reporting to have experienced infidelity within the last 2 years will receive 32 IFS sessions conducted across 8 months, and complete pre and posttest assessments.
