Relationship expert (and former mistress) Sarah Symonds offers infidelity expertise to women
Sarah Symonds is returning to Canada to host another series of "Mistresses Anonymous" workshops, answering the cries for help from hundreds of desperate Canadian mistresses.
UK-based author, broadcaster, journalist, and the world’s first and only “Infidelity and Relationship Analyst”, Sarah Symonds, is in Vancouver this week to host her “Mistresses Anonymous” workshops.
An expert in her field, Sarah is in demand around the world for her insightful work on dealing with infidelity. Sarah is candid about having lived as the ‘Other Woman’ for many years, but it was when her affair with celebrity chef, Gordon Ramsay, hit the press that she finally decided to reform.
Sarah has since made it her life's mission to help other women living as mistresses do the same. After Sarah appeared on the “Oprah Winfrey Show” in 2007, the response from women was so overwhelming, she founded “Mistresses Anonymous”, a groundbreaking support group and recovery program for women living a secret life.
This latest tour of Canadian cities (which included meetings in Toronto last week and meetings this week in Vancouver) is a follow up to her visit last May, which hosted a series of successful workshops for women in relationships with committed men.
With the launch of Sarah’s new television show, dealing with relationships on the Slice Network next fall and an incredible response from Canadian mistresses, Sarah plans to make Canada the headquarters of her foundation. Her goal is to give mistresses the tools to escape from their affairs.
The timing of Sarah’s visit couldn’t be more appropriate. The holiday season is the time when mistresses most often find themselves painfully alone while their married men spend time celebrating with their wives and families. Her workshops, book and blogs offer mistresses life-changing advice based on her own personal experiences, and Sarah would like to extend an invitation to women trapped in affairs with married men to attend her confidential workshops.
Since her groundbreaking appearance on the “Oprah Winfrey Show”, Sarah has appeared regularly on the popular TV and radio shows such as “The Dr. Phil Show”, “Dr. Drew”, “Joy Behar”, “ On Air with Ryan Seacrest” plus “The View,” “Dateline NBC,” “What Would You Do?” and “Larry King Live”, as well as other ABC and CNN Primetime shows. Sarah’s hard-hitting, straight edge approach makes her hot property on the talk-show circuit and she is frequently called upon by the news media to comment when stories break about celebrity marriages being rocked by affairs and sex-scandals. Most recently, Sarah was called upon to comment and analyze Ashton and Demi’s break-up and the Herman Cain scandal. The Biography Channel featured Sarah last month on "Celebrity Mistresses".
Sarah’s first book, the controversial self-help manual “Having an Affair? A Handbook for the Other Woman”, attracted huge media attention in 2007. In addition to managing Mistresses Anonymous, Sarah has hosted her own weekly LA radio show, “Between the Sheets”. Sarah also writes an edgy relationship advice blog called “Pillow Talk”.

She is a call girl that isn't honest enough to say as much, who writes books for women who feel bad because they are with married men, who are liars.
I'm not sure who is the biggest loser in this large bunch of losers.
"who find themselves painfully alone"- hmm, let me see they are knowlingly having an affair with a married man and they think the pain is theirs? Seriously-are you kidding me with this?
I told my spouse from day 1 that if he ever felt he wanted to have an affair or start a relationship with someone else his very first responsibility was to tell me first. That way I could also have a choice-whether I would tolerate this or leave. But to show an absolute lack of respect for a spouse that one would cheat-behind their backs-is insulting, obnoxious, dangerous and completely lacking in integrity.
There is much more pain felt by the betrayed spouse than any mistresss who willingly engages in an affair with a married man will ever understand unless they find themselves in that situation. Committed relationships are built on trust. When one person betrays that trust and their partner in that betrayal knows exactly what they are doing when they engage in the affair-then I have little sympathy for them.
And given all the bizarre reality shows on TV I should not be at all surprised that someone could make a living off of exploiting exploitation-but here I am - still a little surprised and much sickened.
SS is a skank, that's all there is to it. She is not an expert in anything other than low self esteem and trying to get her own back on society for something, someone somewhere didn't love her enough...
its great that she is helping women in horrible situations. She never stated anything positive about being with a married man, only the negative. She simply owned up to what she did and is now helping others, and making money out of it is just a bonus.
I think Sarah is doing a wonderful job trying to help other women. Does anyone blame the man? It is the men that prey on the women, yes the woman does have low self esteem and they see this and play on it. Sweet talk, gifts building what they want to see and then boom, the women are sucked in. almost all the time we find out to late. Yes, it is our responsibility to ourselves to stop but some are powerless without the tools and we do need the brutal honesty of someone that has been there. Its not the women cheating its the man, no I am not saying that women dont cheat I personally know a few of them. If they or you are cheating then it is plain and simple that they are not happy in the relationship but don't have the balls to leave. no matter what.
