I run a 2 hr-long weekly group for men in early recovery/relational recovery and starting next year a 1.5hr-long weekly group for women with betrayal trauma. Fee is in New Zealand dollars for 120 minutes. Men's session's start with programme material discussion and then move to check-ins with a smaller group of 3-4 men and a facilitator.

Person-centred framework, but as there is often crisis management work sessions we often start off with grounding/meditation work (can be from a Christian perspective or neutral). I also use an adapted version of Couples Therapy for Domestic Violence for conflict management. Fee is in New Zealand dollars for 90 minutes.

New Hope Recovery is an open online recovery group, running weekly. The programme uses the New Hope For Sexual Integrity Christian recovery manual. This is a tough, but excellent programme for those looking to establish sobriety and/or deepen relational healing following sexual betrayal (including through porn use). Day and Time: 6:30-8:30pm Monday nights (New Zealand time) There is an in-take process for this group (to determine group readiness) prior to acceptance. New Hope For Sexual Integrity is a programme that’s been under development by American pastor, Darrell Brazzell for close to 20 years. On one hand it is a tough, no-nonsense programme for men ready to do the work it takes to get free of problematic sexual behaviours and heal their relationship with their spouse. On the other hand, it is a programme that encourages camaraderie, love and respect for all members. It makes good use of some of the best sex addiction recovery models available (IITAP, Omar Minwalla’s model) and some of the best Christian addiction recovery and trauma-healing models (Jim Wilder and Karl Lehmann) as well as borrowing from 12-step principles. This programme has been somewhat adapted by Lisa based on her observations (from 12 years of running groups for betrayed partners and men in recovery). For example, it will also increase the requirements for transparency with betrayed wives/girlfriends and hold men accountable to their wives and group at a higher level than most groups do.
