Know What Real Safety Looks Like

When you’ve been betrayed, your first responsibility is to your own safety and healing. But if you’re open to the possibility of rebuilding the relationship, it’s important to know what real safety and genuine change look like in your partner.

This free checklist from Geoff Steurer, LMFT, CCPS, outlines early indicators that your partner is beginning to show the consistency, humility, and accountability required for real trust-building. You’ll also find reflection prompts to help you stay grounded in your own healing while discerning relational safety at your own pace.

You don’t have to guess what safety looks like.
