Betrayal Trauma in Dating Relationships: Is It a Thing? With Kaylee Dunn [71]

Breaking the Silence

You’ve probably heard about betrayal trauma in marriage, but this time we’re talking about how it shows up in dating relationships and what to do about it. Therapist Kaylee Dunn wants people to know they aren’t alone, they aren’t crazy, it’s normal to be in distress, and there is a way through with therapy with a qualified professional, education, and group support.

In this episode:

• Flashbacks, difficult moods, avoidance, and hyper-vigilance are normal responses to broken trust in a close relationship.
• Whether someone stays in the relationship or not, they will need support to heal the attachment wounds.
• Why it’s important for partners to disclose their challenges with pornography even though it will cause pain.
• How someone can support a girlfriend/boyfriend who has experienced betrayal trauma in the past.
