I don't diss therapy, I mean it won't hurt none...but isn't it beyond that point? Betrayal is forever, once you can't trust your partner that mistrust will always be in the back of your mind.

And certainly to do some healing. Even divorcing couples need healing. I had a summer's worth of couples therapy (perhaps better called "uncoupling therapy") with my spouse (soon to be ex-spouse) and it was well worth it. You can go into couples therapy not knowing if you will stay together or separate. Or you can go in already certain you will part.
