Multiple Affairs: The Counselors

The Perspective of Two Counselors

Two of our Affair Healing coaches, who are also licensed counselors, discuss what it means when one partner has had more than one affair. Compared to single infidelities, what’s the same? What’s different? What unique considerations need to be made?


When infidelity happens more than once, recovery gets even harder. Therapists Tim Tedder and Jennifer Gingras unpack the challenges of multiple affairs—the unique characteristics and considerations for each partner. Honest, compassionate conversations for partners, strayers, and the professionals who support them.

Whether you’re a partner trying to understand or the one who strayed, this podcast offers insight, guidance, and hope for navigating this difficult terrain of relational repair.
