๐ŸŒฟ CSAT & APSAT Services at Embrace New Life

Hope, healing, and truth-based recovery for partners and families impacted by sexual betrayal.

At Embrace New Life Counseling & Wellness, our trauma-informed clinicians provide specialized care for individuals, couples, and families navigating the complex aftermath of sexual betrayal, compulsive sexual behaviors, and relational trauma. Our team includes CSAT (Certified Sex Addiction Therapist) and APSAT (Association of Partners of Sex Addicts Trauma Specialists) trained providers who understand that betrayal is not a โ€œrelationship issueโ€โ€”it is a traumatic wound with emotional, neurological, and spiritual impact.

We support:

  • Betrayed partners experiencing shock, trauma symptoms, or attachment injury

  • Individuals struggling with compulsive sexual behaviors or pornography use

  • Couples attempting structured healing and restoration after disclosure

  • Families affected by secrecy, shame, or broken trust

  • Faith-based clients seeking a compassionate, biblically grounded path to restoration

Our approach combines:

  • Trauma-informed CSAT/APSAT protocols

  • Attachment and nervous-system stabilization

  • Safety and boundary building

  • Guided disclosure and truth-based repair work

  • Relational healing through IMAGO, EFT, and Gottman methods

  • Support for faith, identity, and meaning reconstruction

  • Highly confidential, private, non-insurance-involved care

Healing after betrayal is possible when it happens in a safe, structured, and professionally guided environment. You are not aloneโ€”and you are not to blame for someone elseโ€™s choices.

We help you rebuild safety, reclaim clarity, and restore your sense of self.


Why Credentials Matter

Not all therapy is created equal.
When it comes to betrayal trauma or sexual compulsivity, working with a generalist often delays healingโ€”or even causes harm. Our CSAT and APSATS professionals hold nationally recognized certifications that require:
โœ”๏ธ Hundreds of hours of focused clinical training
โœ”๏ธ Rigorous supervision by field leaders
โœ”๏ธ Mastery of trauma-informed, attachment-based, and systemic care
โœ”๏ธ Ongoing education to stay current with best practices

These are not weekend certifications. They are elite, clinical designationsโ€”trusted by treatment centers, legal professionals, and clients worldwide.


For Betrayed Partners

Youโ€™re not “overreacting.” Youโ€™re not “just insecure.”
Youโ€™re likely experiencing relational PTSD. APSATS-trained therapists understand that betrayal trauma is real trauma. We offer:

  • Grounding tools to stabilize emotions

  • Boundaries work to rebuild safety

  • Narrative repair to reclaim your voice


For the Partner in Recovery

If youโ€™ve struggled with pornography, infidelity, or compulsive sexual behaviors, a CSAT provides a path to freedom.

This is not shame-based therapy. Itโ€™s accountability with compassion.

  • Specialized assessments

  • Personalized treatment plans

  • Whole-self recovery: sexual, emotional, relational, and spiritual


For Couples: Regular & Conjoint Sessions

Healing the relationship takes more than good intentions. It takes skillful guidance.

In additional to traditional couples sessions, we offer conjoint sessions (both partners, both therapists) that are designed to:

  • Reduce chaos and emotional overwhelm

  • Support empathy, honesty, and truth-telling

  • Rebuild emotional and physical safetyโ€”step by step

Couple Options: 30-min, 60-min, or 90-min | with one or both clinicians
