17. Full Therapeutic Disclosure & Polygraph: Why We Did It
In this raw and informative episode, we take you inside one of the most pivotal (and most controversial) moments in our healing journey after infidelity: Full Therapeutic Disclosure (FTD) and the use of a polygraph.
We talk about why we chose to go through this difficult, costly, and emotionally intense process, despite skepticism from well-meaning friends and family. You'll hear:
- What Full Therapeutic Disclosure really is (and isn’t)
- Why a polygraph can be a powerful tool for rebuilding trust
- How we prepared for our 3-day intensive with Comfort Christian Counseling
- The role humility, honesty, and faith played in our process
- What Scripture says about truth and why it matters in recovery
If you're navigating betrayal trauma, sexual addiction recovery, or just beginning to seek truth in your relationship, this episode offers hope, practical insight, and spiritual grounding. Truth-telling is painful—but it’s also holy. And with the right support, it can be the beginning of freedom.
