I’ve seen SO’s post here as well.
Two things from my perspective, and I told my counselor this, if I were to direct my SO here to find people to talk to she may feel like I was sending her to a place that she might perceive as automatically being “on my side”. In fact, that is a reason why I did not take my counselors offer to have group sessions with my wife and I. I completely trust that she would be objective but again, I would not want my wife to ever consider she may not be.
With that said, recommend your wife find an counselor (therapist), whatever term you want to use, that she picks and feels most comfortable with. It may take more than one try. It did for me.
In doing so she can find someone whom she will trust, and not have the extra worrying of bringing this “embarrassing situation” up to a friend or family member.
I hope this helps you in some way. My wife had not found a counselor of yet, I’ve suggested she do so several times. She just has to decide it’s a priority for her to do so.
Love and Hugs,
Becka!
