Question: 

Hi Wayne. As a trauma expert could you please give some advice or tips on how best to deal with the trauma that comes from infidelity. In particular the impact of body shaming and the thoughts that now go through my wife's head of not being good enough and comparing herself etc.. This is not all linked into infidelity, although that has certainly exacerbated the impact. We are 16 months post D-Day, have done EMSO, I have completed H4H and continue to meet with my group and my wife is currently in HH. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
