[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op again. Upon research I have seen people and other therapists say that just working on a positive relationship helps more than unpacking the hurt of infidelity, so just thought this is what the therapist was doing. I still don't know how I feel about the tactic and wanted to see what other options are out there.

It's not like we can't work on the relationship. Having fun together or talking about joy does strengthen it, but it seems very superficial and doesn't alleviate the fears that another horrible betrayal will happen the next time any sort of strain arises in the marriage. It doesn't seem to build strength. At some point soon I still feel like we need to revisit this very hurtful action to the marriage and see if we can get through it to make the marriage stronger.[/quote]

Ask that therapist what is planned approach is, what milestones he's looking to achieve, in what order and when. If he doesn't have on- on to the next! Don't waste your time or money with someone that wants to beat around a bush and you're not interested. Therapists are as varied (and inept) as the general population, so not finding someone to be a good match isn't unusual.[/quote]
