Moving on and letting go... How do I get there?

Wow what a turbulent 4 months it's been. I separated from my partner 4 mths ago and we are currently in the mediation process to work out care for our daughters.
I'll try and keep this short, he has suffered from depression and anxiety for some time and no matter how hard I tried to help and begged him to get help he never did.
So it finally resulted in him being unfaithful with a young 19 year old. They texted, slept together, he kicked my daughters and I out and she has since moved in. All this has angered and hurt me beyond anything I have ever felt before. But recently he got the help he needed and needless to say realises what a mistake he's made and says he still loves me etc.
I can't go back the trust is gone and the hurt is so bad. But I want to so bad, I can see he's the man I fell in love with again and getting the help has changed him. He is still with her though as she knows nothing of how he still feels for me.
It's just betrayal all over again, she's living in my house with the man that fixed himself for her. I was doing ok but now I'm back at square one and completely at a loss again.
How do I get back to where I was halfway to happy again?

It will take time. I'm sorry it's a process and you will get there. Don't take this man back, if he really wanted to fix this he would have had that girl out of the house by now. What he is saying is he'd consider getting rid of her if you show some interest.
I think it's a good time to work on your self worth and confidence. That way what ever happens you can feel good about yourself.
