Madden’s book “Blindsided By His Betrayal” wins honorable mention at the 2017 London Book Festival. Those interested in a practical guide to surviving infidelity will find the book useful and healing.


Blindsided By His Betrayal”, published by Train of Thought Press in 2016, has received honorable mention at the 2017 London Book Festival and was a finalist at the 2017 Best Book Awards Fest.


Written by Caroline Madden, greater Los Angeles relationship therapist and author, “Blindsided By His Betrayal” explores the emotional convulsions that engulf a wife after the discovery that the husband has cheated. It breaks down the typical experience of a woman caught in the web of a partner’s lies and deception, empowering wives to see clearly what is happening and what solutions exist.


“Blindsided by His Betrayal” is deliberately written with a simple, clean and direct tone. “At a time when the toxic fog of anger, pain and bitterness obscures the obvious, women need help making rational choices,” Madden says. “The rage and hurt brought on by infidelity can cloud even the strongest woman’s judgment. This book provides direction at a time when even simple life decisions are challenging.”


The guide to surviving infidelity is written specifically for women. It provides comfort and affirmation that the experiences that accompany affair recovery are normal, assuring women that the confusion and changes are temporary and survivable. The direction provided is both flexible and yet concise, providing guidance without limiting a woman’s options for forward movement.


Madden graduated in 1993 from Cornell with a BS in Labor Relations; in 2001, Madden earned a MA in Psychology from Phillips Graduate Institute. Since opening private practice in 2001, Madden has focused couples counseling on helping people save marriages after infidelity.


In 2017, Madden earned a Doctorate in Holistic Counseling from the University of Sedona. Madden’s dissertation discussed the merits of meditation to alleviate Post Affair Trauma Symptoms in wives.


Madden is nationally known for an affair recovery practice in Burbank and books addressing the thorny topic of infidelity. Learn more about Caroline Madden’s philosophy, practice and services at Madden’s website.
