Question: 

My husband and I are in week 3 of EMS Online and I completed Harboring Hope. We’ve been married 37 years. The first D-Day of a 4 year emotional and sexual affair was 7/15/20. I found evidence he could no longer deny and the 2nd D-Day was 1/23/21 of an emotional, short affair that happened 25 years ago. I suspected, he kept denying. I was seeing a therapist before D-Day. She helped me with some other trauma I experienced. He started seeing her too and then together as a couple. We then felt we needed our own therapy again. My therapist had my husband go to a new therapist that is under her in the same office. My therapist started telling me that her 1st husband cheated on her and there is no way she could stay with someone that did that to her. She keeps saying things that makes me feel like I’m foolish for even trying to make this work. My husband told me the new therapist prays with him, which is good; but she holds his hands to do so. I am afraid that he will end up creating a bond with her and as a possible sex addict, this isn’t a good idea. Am I crazy for thinking this way? Should we try to find new therapist?
