Karin Baer

Karin has a big heart for women going through partner betrayal trauma. She gets it.

She had to walk through her own healing and recovery. And now, it is her deep desire to help women heal as a whole person. She leads the DFR Partner Recovery Group for women who are facing their husband’s or partner’s sexual addiction and co-leads an Art Therapy Group for partners. We are delighted to have Karin join the DFR team.
