How do you move on from betrayal? 

You’ve been betrayed.

Maybe it just happened, and you’re reeling from it. Or maybe it was years ago, but you still haven’t gotten past it.

Why does betrayal hurt so much? Is it possible to forgive someone who betrayed you? How do you decide what to do about restoring the relationship you had with the person who betrayed you?

Dr. Bruce Chalmer’s Betrayal and Forgiveness will help you answer these questions and more.
