Kathryn and Jennifer discuss how to work with couples’ intense guilt and shame, particularly in affair/betrayal recovery work, in this short clip. These feelings are very often triggered when there’s been a betrayal or attachment injury in a relationship, and Kathryn and Jennifer give guidance on how therapists can talk about guilt and shame from an attachment perspective as they arise in session and validate the good and important places they come from within each partner.
