‘Please, help me.’
As a therapist, there are moments when the weight of responsibility feels particularly heavy, especially when faced with the profound pain of betrayal experienced by a client. The revelation of betrayal by a partner can leave the client (and perhaps the therapist) grappling with uncertainty and a sense of not knowing what steps to take next. In addition to acknowledging the rawness of the situation and allowing space for the client's emotions to unfold authentically, we must begin the next steps of walking alongside clients as they navigate the complexities of their experiences, offering support, empathy, and a safe space for healing to unfold.
My courses are all about helping therapists like you feel more confident and capable in those post-session moments of uncertainty when the question arises, "What do I do now?" They're designed to provide practical insights, bridging the gap between theory and the real challenges therapists face. My goal is to empower you to guide your clients effectively, making your therapeutic journey smoother and more impactful.
Hi! I’m LaDonna!
I’ve been a psychotherapist for over 35 years.
I’ve also gone through the ugliness of betrayal and midlife divorce.
I have been through all of the emotions that being betrayed by a long-term partner brings: disbelief, confusion, self-doubt, anger, sadness, and pain.
As a psychotherapist trained in the treatment of porn/sex addiction and Partner Betrayal Trauma, I knew what I was facing as I arrived at the turning point in my 20 year marriage.
With my personal experience and my years of work in this field, I’m a strong believer that we can, and will, heal when we have the right knowledge and direction.
I have also learned over the years that clients struggle to find a therapist who is trained in treating their betrayal trauma so I decided to help change that.
The courses I offer are all based from the work that I did personally and the best practices in helping our clients heal from betrayal trauma. They’re a combination of research and practical delivery so that you, as a therapist, can feel confident in helping your clients in the most effective, ethical ways.
I’m passionate about the honor of guiding clients on their healing path and shining the light on each step toward their new life. I would be further honored to share with you the roadmap that I’ve created to help therapist feel competent, confident and courageous and walking along side our clients during their life changing journey.
As you join me, we will help our clients create the strong, courageous and authentic version of their shattered self.
