Back in the 1990's polygraph testing coupled with professional counseling on convicted sex offenders began as a means of supervising their release from formal custody, back into society. Many states in the United States have enacted laws making such supervision of these offenders mandatory. It is very successful in maintaining these individuals by monitoring their behavior and hopefully placing them on a road to recovery. As in any other type of treatment the subject of the treatment has to be willing and make quite some effort to recover. Of course there are always those who really have no desire to recover and are quickly discovered and are eliminated from the program.
I have conducted polygraph examinations on thousands of people where their fidelity in their relationship has been questioned. I have seen them from one end of the spectrum to the other. There are those who come for the test, fully knowing they are guilty, but hoping that they can pass the test anyway. I've seen those who were prolific violators of the sanctity of their relationship and they would think they could possibly admit a few things and make it through. Also I have those who were just merely falsely accused.
During the past couple of years I have begun using the techniques I was taught for the post conviction testing of sexual offenders, in relationship testing. So far it has worked well, especially if they are willing to use it in conjunction with professional counseling. The first step in my testing process is to have the person come in for the full disclosure polygraph examination. The only way that they can complete this portion of the process is to be completely forth coming in each and every indiscretion they have committed. I in now way go into their relationship with the person in which they are involved with in the relationship, however their extra-relationship activities must be exposed during this portion. This way they begin their recovery process with a clean slate.
After this test is completed a report will be written and if they are working with a counselor, with their permission, a copy will given to the counselor. After six months the sexual addict will come back in for a periodic examination regarding whether or not they have committed any sexual acts with anyone outside the relationship. This will continue as long as the professional counselor deems is necessary in placing the individual on the road to recovery.
Many times an effective way to repair a broken relationship is by clearing the air of sexual indiscretions. The best way to do this is using a professional Polygraph Examiner to test your wayward spouse or significant other. This way you will have proof in a tangible way that the slate is wiped clean and you can begin anew. Many times the spouse or significant other may be completely innocent. However, if you have nothing to give you any relief as to whether they are guilty or innocent you will have no peace.
