Joe H. says, "I sought out Lesley for help with anger issues four years ago and she has vastly improved the way that I move through life. Lesley genuinely cares about me. During our sessions, she and gently pushes me out of my comfort zone in a non-judgmental way. Deep emotional work with Lesley has resulted in me becoming more present and aware of my fears, and taught me how to feel these emotions rather than push them away (which previously lead to my anger). She gave me the tools to deal with my emotions and showed me how my past experiences shape my current reality. Though initially resistant to therapy, I evolved so that I now look forward to my sessions with Lesley. I know that I will be challenged and that I will leave each session feeling better than when I arrived. Highly Recommend!" Read more

Cristina S. says, "Sean is the kindest, most thoughtful, empathetic, intuitive and funny therapist I've ever worked with. He's also one of the best human beings I've ever come across. I have been working with Sean for over two years and couldn't recommend him more highly. He authentically cares about his clients, is an amazing active listener, and engages with clients to increase understanding - both his understanding of a client and the client's understanding of themselves through talking together. Working with Sean feels like if you're lost alone in a dark wood, and a kind, wise, and solid friend appears and reaches out to hold your hand and lead you home; but home is yourself and you get there through increasing understanding of yourself and defining yourself. If you're looking for an understanding therapist, who doesn't rattle off "solutions" to fix your "problem" or fix "you" but instead listens and speaks with you as a partner and insightful guide in your journey, on equal terms, look no further. He's also pretty funny and has a great Irish accent." Read more

One thing that sets me apart from many counselors is that my continuing education and experience, and consideration of the unique situation of each of my clients, allows me to empower and honor their own decisions and beliefs, without imposing my own on them, even for addicts and other trauma survivors. I have worked professionally as a counselor to individuals with substance use disorders since before and after completing my Addiction Treatment Specialist Certification in 2007. I have travelled the world with clients and enabled them to pursue their ambitions and responsibilities while continuing to receive consistent insight, feedback, and ...

Your couples therapy questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Thervo.

How much does couples therapy cost?

Couples therapy costs $120 to $250 per session for in-person therapy or $90 to $230 per session for a virtual session. Your location, the therapist's experience, and the number of sessions you're buying also impact the price. Subscription services for online relationship counseling cost $50 to $100 per week.

Since most couples therapy lasts for 12 to 20 sessions, consider buying multiple sessions at once, as many therapists offer a reduced rate on multi-session packages.

Is couples therapy worth it?

Yes, couples therapy is worth it in most cases. Research shows about 75% of couples agree that emotionally focused therapy had a positive impact on their relationship.

To compare, getting a divorce costs $10,000 to $15,000 on average. Besides the high monetary expense, also consider the greater emotional costs of divorce, especially when children are involved.

Is couples therapy covered by insurance?

Most insurance companies do not cover couples therapy unless you or your partner has a medically diagnosed mental illness and the doctor prescribes therapy as part of the treatment.

If you or your partner work for a company that offers employer-sponsored group insurance, some businesses have Employee Assistance Programs (EAPs) that often include individual and couples counseling.

How does couples therapy work?

In couples therapy, the therapist first assesses your personalities, needs, and triggers through conversation and often a written questionnaire. After assessing your relationship, the therapist works with you and provides you with tools to practice and improve your communication and conflict resolution skills.

The therapist may assign homework for you and your partner to work on alone or together in between sessions. The therapist may also schedule individual sessions to allow more open communication.

When should you go to couples therapy?

Any couple wanting to improve their relationship and communication could benefit from couples therapy. Emotional distance, infidelity, financial disagreements, lack of sexual intimacy, family challenges, and increased conflicts are all reasons to seek couples therapy.

How do I choose the best couples therapist near me?

When searching for couples therapy near you, be sure to:

  • Ask your primary care physician, trusted friends, or family members for recommendations.
  • Refer to the list of preferred providers if using your company’s Employee Assistance Program coverage.
  • Look for Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists (LMFTs) with 2+ years of clinical experience.
  • Confirm their credentials and qualifications.
  • Read their reviews on Thervo, Google, and other online sources.

What questions should I ask when searching for a couples therapist?

Couples therapy is very personal. Consider asking the following question to help you find the best fit for you and your partner:

  • Are you a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT)?
  • How long have you been counseling couples?
  • What types of therapy do you specialize in?
  • Have you been successful helping other couples?
  • How long are your sessions?
  • How many sessions should we plan for?
  • What should we expect at our first session?
  • Do you assign homework between sessions?
  • What is your policy for cancellations, late arrivals, and missed appointments?
  • Do you offer a payment plan or sliding scale rates?
