ONLINE WORKSHOP OVER 3 DAYS

Did you know that counsellors and psychotherapists are more likely to have affairs than the general public?
Researching over 200 counsellors and psychotherapists, Juliet has discovered that the prevalence of affairs in counsellors is 51%
And 1/3 said the affair improved relationship; 2/3 said the relationship failed
Whereas the general public statistics are said to be that 34% of men and 24% of women will have an affair during their relationship.
To find out more about affairs, for your individual clients, and for those of you who work with couples, join our course, Dealing With Affairs
