Lit Path peer support groups
Looking for a Lit Path Peer Support Group?
Sometimes the most meaningful support comes from being surrounded by people who truly understand.
Lit Path offers facilitated peer support groups for individuals navigating compulsive sexual behavior and betrayal trauma. Our groups provide a welcoming, structured space for connection, encouragement, and healing.
Your story matters. Your healing matters.
Betrayal trauma can leave deep wounds, and healing from those experiences deserves its own care, attention, and support.
At Lit Path, we believe partners deserve more than simply being included in someone else’s recovery. They deserve a path toward healing that is entirely their own.
Through our Resilient Travelers scholarship program, we help make specialized therapy more financially accessible for individuals navigating betrayal trauma.
