We Bridge the Gap Between Outpatient Therapy and Intensive Healing

As a CSAT or APSATS-trained professional, you guide clients and couples through some of the most painful seasons of their lives—navigating addiction, betrayal trauma, disclosure, and the long road to rebuilding trust.

But sometimes, your clients need more support than outpatient therapy can provide. Whether it’s a man in crisis after discovery or a partner experiencing betrayal trauma and PTSD, Valiant Living offers the structure, safety, and time they need to stabilize and begin deep healing.

Our goal is to come alongside you—not to replace your work, but to reinforce it.

Therapist-Owned. Family-Focused. Partner-Driven.

Founded and owned by Michael Dinneen, LCSW, CSAT, Valiant Living was built by clinicians who understand the complexity of intimacy disorders and relational trauma.

We collaborate closely with CSATs, APSATS professionals, and the IITAP community to create continuity of care through every phase of recovery. Whether the client needs stabilization, disclosure preparation, or post-treatment reintegration, our team functions as a trusted extension of yours.
