Introducing the digital workbook
‘Healing from Betrayal’
23 Steps to Reclaim your Self after Betrayal
By LaDonna Carey, MA
Betrayal Recovery Specialist
Hi, I’m LaDonna!
The smile on my face is genuine now.
But, l
ike you, I experienced the destruction that replaced my smile with pain and confusion.
I’ve ridden the emotional roller coaster after discoveries of deceit and infidelity by a partner.
This grief straps us in and carries us through the debris of betrayal and loss.
We loop around and upside down through shock, denial, obsession, anger, bargaining, depression, and more.
The ride often starts again just when we think we’ve hit solid ground.
We may get the message that others expect you just to step off and move on.
If only it were that easy, right?
I’m a psychotherapist trained in the treatment of addiction, abuse and Partner Betrayal Trauma.
I’m also a Betrayed Partner.
It took me a few minutes to catch my breath as I looked at the credit card statement in my hand.
Even though my emotional brain was reeling, my ‘thinking’ brain knew what I was seeing. As I looked at the credit card statement I knew the names of those websites. I knew what the charges meant. That moment was my turning point in my marriage.
I ‘ve experienced all of the emotions that being betrayed by a long-term partner brings:
disbelief, confusion, self-doubt, anger, sadness, and pain.
Because of my personal experience and my professional training,
I’m a strong believer that we can, and will, heal when we have the right knowledge and direction.
I created the pathway forward loaded with the tools I needed in my “knapsack” and I’m sharing these with you in this workbook.
I’m passionate about this honor of guiding you on your healing path and shining the light on each step toward your new life.
I am here to help you as you navigate this section of your journey.
The aftermath of betrayal can leave us without direction and with a loss of our identity.
We often find ourselves so confused and hurt that our very sense of Self may feel shattered and scattered about in the debris.
“I don’t know who I am anymore.”
What made me so easily discarded?
Didn’t I deserve better?
How was I so blind?
Now, what do I do?
