Dr. Crystal Hollenbeck & Kristin discuss anger after sexual betrayal -- what it actually is, why it shows up the way it does, and what both partners can do with it.
In this episode we cover:
A clear definition of betrayal trauma anger and why it is immediate and ongoing, not a one-time reaction
Survey findings on self-blame, anger at God, and the physical toll unprocessed anger takes on the body
How Ephesians 4:26 -- 'be angry and do not sin' -- reframes anger as something to process, not eliminate
Concrete ways a betrayer can sit with a partner's anger instead of reacting to it
The difference between reactive abuse and abuse, and why that distinction matters
Why suppressing anger is just as harmful as exploding with it
Crystal is a psychotherapist specializing in relationships, sex therapy, and trauma recovery, and the author of Betrayal Trauma Anger: You're Not Crazy, You're Angry, and You Should Be.
