Behavior:
Client expressed pain and emotional distress due to a betrayal by a close friend, stating, "I don’t know if I can ever trust them again." Client reported that the betrayal has caused doubt in other friendships and difficulty in letting go of the hurt. Client appeared conflicted and overwhelmed while discussing the emotional impact of the situation.
Intervention:
Therapist explored the emotional impact of betrayal, discussing its connection to grief and insecurity in relationships. Therapist reassured the client that conflicted feelings about repairing or ending the friendship are normal. Therapist introduced the concept of setting healthy boundaries and suggested the client reflect on their needs for healing before making decisions.
Response:
Client acknowledged the importance of processing their emotions before taking action and agreed to write down their feelings about the friendship over the next week. Client appeared slightly overwhelmed but engaged in the discussion and receptive to the suggestions provided.
Plan:
Client will write down their feelings about the friendship over the next week and revisit the decision in the future. The next session will include evaluating how the client is feeling and continuing to explore strategies for emotional processing and boundary setting.
Today’s 50-minute session focused on the pain the client is feeling after a close friend betrayed their trust. They said, "I don’t know if I can ever trust them again," explaining the deep emotional impact the situation has had on them. The client discussed how the betrayal has created doubt in other friendships and how it’s difficult for them to let go of the hurt. We talked about how betrayal can lead to feelings of grief and a sense of insecurity in relationships. I reassured the client that it’s normal to feel conflicted about whether to repair the friendship or let it go.
We explored the idea of setting healthy boundaries with the friend if they choose to continue the relationship. I suggested taking time to reflect on what they need in order to heal before making any decisions. Client seemed a little overwhelmed but acknowledged the need to process their emotions before taking any action. They agreed to write down how they feel about the friendship over the next week and revisit the decision once they feel more clear. We’ll check in next session to evaluate how they’re feeling.
