This YouTube podcast excerpt (April 27, 2023) features a conversational exchange between two speakers about how partners can help a betrayed partner through emotional triggers. SPEAKER A references therapeutic techniques called "trigger-busting CPR for relational rescue" and names Dorit Reichndall and Janice Caudle; the excerpt shows practical phrases partners can use (e.g., "Are you triggered? It looks like you might be triggered.").

How do they help their partner through a trigger? They see it happen. They know what's happening. How do they help their betrayed partner get through that trigger?
Well, I ascribe in all of my books to Dorit Reichndall and Janice Caudle that did the trigger busting CPR for relational rescue. And that is really, that involves him. You know, when he sees that something's up that is supposed to go out in the garage, he come up to her and he say, hey, what's going on? And if a woman's triggered many times, she won't want to talk about it.
Yeah.
And then he can say, are you triggered? It looks like you might be triggered. And if she will at least give some acknowledgment of that, then he needs to validate it and say, well, it looks like it's a really big trigger. And I know that my past has caused that trigger.
