ABSTRACT
Embora o que se entenda como infidelidade varie de acordo com o contexto sociocultural e o contrato estabelecido por cada casal, seu impacto na relação costuma ser significativo e desafiador. Neste artigo, serão abordadas possibilidades de intervenção junto a casais que buscam terapia em virtude da infidelidade conjugal. É importante considerar a infidelidade como um fenômeno complexo, relacionado a questões intrapsíquicas, relacionais, situacionais e socioculturais. O terapeuta deve abordar (a) o impacto inicial da descoberta da infidelidade; (b) a história da relação, de forma a contextualizar o acontecido; e (c) o seu futuro. Nesse processo, mostram-se úteis tanto sessões individuais como conjugais. O entendimento da infidelidade requer um olhar sistêmico, que consiga abranger a história do casal e da família, suas crenças e seus padrões relacionais. O terapeuta precisa ser capaz de criar um ambiente de compreensão mútua que possibilite as mudanças desejadas pelos cônjuges.(AU)
