Description

If you cheated in your relationship, this book could be the best gift you've ever given yourself…and your hurting partner. Infidelity doesn't have to mean the end of your relationship, if you can learn to understand why you cheated in the first place and how to keep it from happening again. Using the affair recovery strategy offered in "I Cheated", you and your partner can move from trauma to empathy, recovering the friendship and passion that brought you together in the first place.

Clinical Psychologist and Affair Recovery Specialist, Dr. Savannah Ellis looks at the myths of infidelity and the mistakes couples make post-affair, then provides exercises and templates so that you and your partner can become proactive in understanding and rebooting your relationship.

The help offered to struggling couples in this book is based on the author's two decades of experience researching infidelity and counseling thousands of couples, feedback from couples coaches she has trained, the latest scientific findings in neurobiology, and research from other leaders in the field of infidelity and affair recovery.

If you have cheated on your spouse or have thought about it, you need to read this book first.
