✦ Synopsis

Abstract

Psychotherapy with same‐sex couples does not differ markedly from standard couple therapies; this is also true for treating couples facing infidelity. However, same‐sex couples often design their relationships differently, without tradition and formal marital contracts to prescribe behavior. Based on clinical experience and the empirical research, this article addresses the differing norms involved in affirmatively treating infidelity in gay and lesbian couples within the framework of integrative behavioral couple therapy (IBCT). Two cases illustrate the process and outcome of IBCT with same‐sex couples. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Clin Psychol/In Session 61: 1429–1438, 2005.
