Sex Addiction, Betrayal Trauma & Affair Recovery in Lindon:Greg DunfordCMHC
Greg Dunford grew up in East Millcreek in Salt Lake City, Utah. After serving an LDS mission in Santiago, Chile, he attended Dixie College. In 1987, he married the love of his life, Julie, who is from Arizona, where they have lived for the majority of their marriage. They have 6 children. His family is the joy of his life!
He completed his Bachelor’s degree at the University of Utah, with a major in Spanish and minor in Psychology, and worked for the LDS Church Seminary and Institute program (CES) for 20 years. He earned his Master’s degree in Counseling at Northern Arizona University and began counseling at LDS Family Services, and then started his private practice in 1998. He found great success using gospel principles to help clients overcome the challenges of:
• addiction: substance abuse, pornography, etc.
• depression• anxiety
• eating disorders
• marriage and family issues
• suicidal tendencies
• sexual, physical, emotional abuse
• and anger issues
In 2007, Greg took an early retirement from CES to pursue what he felt was a calling to use gospel principles to help people heal their lives in a more specific setting. He didn’t know exactly what form that was to take, but after a season of patient preparation, he and his wife became the “Ma & Pa” of the High Bar Ranch, helping young men prepare for their missions in the beautiful White Mountains of Arizona. He has also worked as a program director at a facility for struggling young women, and as a Field Director for the Arivaca Boys Ranch doing everything from Equine therapy and all kinds of outdoor activities, to teaching Arbinger (which essentially teaches a Christ-like way of being). Greg has a gift in connecting with the youth. His ability to communicate, motivate and inspire people are among his greatest strengths. The people he works with know he cares about them.
Greg has traveled extensively and lived abroad in: Europe, North, South and Central America, South Pacific, and study abroad in Puebla, Mexico & in the Middle East. When he was 17 his family lived in a kibbutz in Israel where his father was the director for the BYU study abroad program. He loves playing basketball and tennis, hiking, fishing, horseback riding, and playing with his kids. Spending time with his family is his favorite thing!
Greg and his wife Julie are passionate about teaching the principles that govern peace of mind and healthy relationships. They are both currently serving as missionaries for the LDS church’s Addiction Recovery Program (ARP). Greg leads a Men’s Pornography and Sexual Addiction Group, and Julie leads a Women’s Support Group, helping women through betrayal trauma, and helping them to support their loved ones in recovery, in healthy, and appropriate ways. They love working together, and frequently do firesides and presentations for church auxiliaries.

Infidelity is understandably devastating. But affair recovery is possible for those in Lindon. Our specialized therapists use proven methods to help you reclaim your self-esteem and begin the process toward healing. When new clients first walk through our doors, we often hear that they feel their extreme emotional reaction to betrayal is “crazy.” But in fact, these intense emotional, physical, and psychological responses are completely normal. In fact, many mental health professionals have noticed a link between these symptoms and PTSD, and now call it Post-Infidelity Stress Disorder.Betrayal trauma often results in feelings of anxiety, depression, and grief. You may find yourself unable to enjoy activities you were once passionate about. Frequent flashbacks and nightmares may lead you to avoid places, people, and behavior you associate with your partner. This trauma cycle can be devastating, and make it difficult to get back to your everyday life. Specialized therapy, paired with a strong support system and a safe space to work through the trauma, can put you back on the path toward happiness.
The Addo Recovery Process.
The journey toward affair recovery in Lindon begins with an individual assessment with an experienced therapist. By taking this time to sit down and introduce yourself, we can begin to understand the depth and breadth of your trauma. As a result, we can prescribe the best plan of action and specific therapeutic methods for each individual client. After the assessment, we match each client with a best-fit therapist, and build a custom therapy plan. We believe therapy works best when a client is uses many methods at once, which may include:
- Couples therapy
