“First responders, couple, premarital, adolescence, individual”
“I work with adolescents and adults 13 years or older. For in person sessions, I see children, teens, and adults over 11 years old. I see people for a variety of issues including depression, anxiety, ADHD, emotional disturbances/anger issues, and family conflict. I work with individuals and couples. Depending on circumstance, I may also see families. A majority of my clients have been impacted by the criminal justice system in some way (i.e. have been in prison, family members or friends of people in or previously in prison, etc.).”
“As a trauma-informed therapist, I specialize in helping clients navigate and heal from PTSD/complex trauma, including survivors of sexual assault, relational abuse, and domestic violence. I am also BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ affirming, and actively honor unique lived experiences, understanding how cultural and relational nuances affect emotional well-being and the importance of culturally responsive care.”
“I serve individuals (14+) and couples navigating challenges such as trauma, ADHD, depression, anxiety, childhood trauma, relationship difficulties, and general feelings of dissatisfaction. In my work with couples, I recognize that communication is often a major barrier to connection. Many partners are also managing their own mental health needs, which can complicate interactions and contribute to misunderstandings. I provide a safe, supportive environment where both individuals can openly express their thoughts and emotions. Together, we explore the underlying dynamics affecting connection and work collaboratively on strategies to enhance mutual understanding and empathy. With individuals, I focus on self-discovery and skill-building. I support clients in developing personalized coping strategies that align with their unique experiences and mental health needs.”
“Medium to High Functioning Wellness Warriors, Anxiety, Cancer and Chronic illness, Grief & Loss, Life Transitions, Abrupt changes to the Family System, mobilizing and reregulating human beings when life's uncertainties have offset their rhythm or formerly regulated coping strategies.”
“You've done the work. Read the books. Tried the breathing. Sat in years of therapy. And still — something feels stuck. I work with people just like you. High-achievers who look fine on paper but feel exhausted underneath. Entrepreneurs carrying invisible weight. Parents running on empty. Veterans and first responders running from memories they can't outrun. Couples caught in the same fight for the tenth year. You're not broken. You're burned out, traumatized, or stuck in patterns that won't budge — and traditional approaches haven't touched the root. If you've been told you're "too much" or "not enough," I see you. If you're ready for something deeper than talk — EMDR, KAP, somatic work — let's talk.”
“I work with parents, partners, or adult children who have a loved one struggling with addiction or other significant family/relationship dysfunction and want to determine whether to remain connected to them or end the relationship. Loving someone who is struggling with unhealthy behaviors can leave us with extremely mixed and overwhelming emotions. I help people learn to set boundaries, overcome trauma, and heal - regardless of whether their loved one is ready to heal or not. I help people regain confidence and feel deserving of their own needs and limits after years of putting themselves last. I help them learn to feel comfortable pulling back from over-functioning which often keeps us in inauthentic interactions with our loved ones. This can be difficult but not impossible. Many of my clients felt other therapies still left them stuck in guilt and uncertainty.”
“My clients often feel like they have been experiencing the same arguments, feeling misunderstood, or wondering if things will ever change. Whether you’re coming in as a couple or an individual, I work best with people who want more than just a place to vent. My style is pragmatic, collaborative, and focused on what actually works for you - helping you understand patterns, practice new skills, and create real change you can feel in your day-to-day life. In couples counseling, I help partners cut through stuck dynamics and get to the heart of what's really going on. Together we will build connection tools that go beyond “talking it out” so you can repair trust, reduce conflict, and reconnect in ways that last. In individual therapy, I work with people who want to better understand themselves, break out of old cycles, and feel more grounded in their choices and relationships.”
“I work primarily with high-achieving Black and Brown professionals in NYC who are navigating anxiety, imposter syndrome, leadership pressure, and relationship strain. Many are executives, entrepreneurs, attorneys, healthcare professionals, creatives, or first-generation leaders carrying visible success and invisible stress. I also specialize in supporting LGBTQ+ professionals of color exploring identity, visibility, and belonging. My clients are ready to move beyond survival mode, release perfectionism, and build emotional clarity, stronger relationships, and sustainable ambition.”
“I work with amalgam of different clients as my formative experience has afforded me versatile opportunities to serve the community as well as staying current with clinically evidence-based practices and continuing education to refine my specialties. Some of these include: Anxiety & Depression ADHD Anger Management Substance Use Recovery Bipolar Disorders Insomnia Trauma-Informed Care Obsessive Compulsive Disorder Panic Disorder Life Transitions Career/Business Development Grief & Loss Relationship Issues Family Conflict Certified Prepare and Enrich Assessment Pre-marital Counseling Program Marital Conflict Divorce Co-parenting Leave of Absence with Family Medical Leave Act Disability Assessments ADA Accommodations Emotional Support Animal Cultural Challenges Immigration Hardship Guest/Keynote Speaker Retreat/Program Design Employee Training”
“Individual, adolescent, family, couples”
“I am accepting new clients! I work with individuals navigating the challenges of major life transitions. In our early sessions, we will explore what feels overwhelming and identify the patterns holding you back. Together we will create a practical, compassionate plan to help you regain balance and move forward with greater clarity. I specialize in working with pregnant and postpartum women experiencing anxiety, depression, and adjustment challenges, with a special focus on ADHD and executive functioning difficulties.”
Online couples therapy, sometimes called couples counseling, gives partners a structured space to work with a licensed therapist through secure video sessions. It can support communication, recurring conflict, trust, intimacy, decision-making, relationship transitions, affair recovery, separation conversations, or rebuilding connection over time.
Therapy Expanded helps you compare online couples therapists by state, relationship concerns, therapy approach, insurance, language, and availability. If one partner is seeking private support, individual therapy may be a better starting point. If the concern involves children, parenting roles, or several family members, you may also want to browse family therapy or parenting therapy.
Online couples therapy is relationship counseling delivered remotely through secure telehealth platforms, usually by video and sometimes by phone. It gives partners a structured space to work with a licensed mental health professional on communication, conflict, trust, intimacy, life transitions, and other relationship concerns without needing to meet in person.
For many couples, online therapy makes getting support feel more realistic. It can be easier to coordinate around work schedules, parenting responsibilities, travel, or living in different locations. It may also open up access to providers outside your immediate area, which can be especially helpful if you are looking for a therapist with experience in a specific issue, identity, culture, or relationship dynamic.
Online couples therapy can support people in all kinds of relationships, whether they are dating, engaged, married, long-term partners, or navigating separation. Some couples start therapy because they feel stuck in recurring arguments. Others want to rebuild closeness, recover from a breach of trust, improve communication, or make important decisions together. Therapy does not have to be a last resort. Many couples use it proactively to strengthen their relationship before problems grow.
That said, online couples therapy is not the right fit for every situation. If there are serious safety concerns, ongoing abuse, coercive control, or one partner cannot speak freely, a different level or type of support may be more appropriate. The right provider can help you understand whether telehealth couples therapy is a good starting point for your needs.
Online couples counseling usually starts with finding a provider who offers telehealth and works with couples. Many directory profiles list the therapist’s specialties, relationship approaches, fees, and scheduling details so you can compare options before reaching out. Some providers also offer a consultation to answer questions and help you decide whether the fit feels right.
After booking, you will typically complete intake paperwork and receive instructions for joining your session online. Most couples therapy sessions take place with both partners attending together from the same location or from separate locations, depending on the provider’s policies and your circumstances. A strong internet connection, a private setting, and a space where both partners can speak openly can make sessions more productive.
In the first few sessions, the therapist will usually learn about your relationship history, current concerns, and what each partner hopes to get from therapy. You may talk about communication patterns, recurring disagreements, emotional disconnection, parenting stress, intimacy, trust, or major life changes affecting the relationship. The therapist’s role is not to “pick a side,” but to help both people feel heard while identifying patterns and creating healthier ways to respond.
As therapy continues, sessions may focus on building communication skills, managing conflict more effectively, increasing emotional understanding, repairing trust, or clarifying shared goals. Some therapists use a structured approach with exercises and tools to practice between sessions, while others focus more on insight and deeper relational patterns. Like in-person therapy, online couples therapy works best when both partners are willing to participate honestly and consistently.
Finding the right online provider for couples therapy starts with practical fit. Make sure the provider offers telehealth, works with couples, and is licensed to see clients where each partner will be located during sessions. If you and your partner live in different states, that is especially important to confirm early.
Next, look for clinical fit. Couples therapists may specialize in communication issues, conflict repair, premarital counseling, infidelity recovery, intimacy concerns, parenting stress, blended families, LGBTQ+ relationships, intercultural relationships, or separation and discernment work. A provider whose experience matches your goals is more likely to understand the dynamics you are bringing into the room.
It also helps to pay attention to the therapist’s style. Some couples therapists are more structured and skills-based, offering exercises and practical tools. Others are more reflective, focusing on emotional patterns, attachment, and deeper relationship dynamics. Reading provider bios can give you a sense of whether their approach feels aligned with what you and your partner want.
Cost, scheduling, and logistics matter too. Look at session fees, insurance information, cancellation policies, session length, and whether the therapist allows partners to join from different locations. Because couples therapy requires buy-in from two people, convenience can make a big difference in whether the process feels sustainable.
When available, a consultation can be a helpful next step. Ask what online couples therapy with them usually looks like, what relationship concerns they most often work with, and how they approach conflict, communication, or trust issues. The right provider should feel balanced, experienced, and able to create a space where both partners feel respected. A good directory makes that search easier by helping you compare providers and connect with someone who fits both your needs and your relationship goals.

Online couples therapy is relationship counseling delivered remotely through telehealth. Sessions are usually held by video and involve both partners meeting with a licensed mental health professional to work on relationship concerns in a structured, supportive setting.
The main difference is the format. Instead of meeting in an office, you join sessions remotely from home or another private space. The goals are often the same: improving communication, understanding patterns, addressing conflict, and building a healthier relationship.
Research suggests that online couples therapy can be as effective as in-person therapy for many couples, although the evidence is still developing and is more nuanced than the research on individual teletherapy. In a randomized study comparing videoconferencing couples therapy with face-to-face treatment, couples showed similar improvements in relationship satisfaction, mental health, and therapeutic alliance, with no significant differences between formats.
Online couples therapy may help with communication problems, recurring arguments, emotional distance, trust issues, intimacy concerns, parenting stress, life transitions, premarital questions, and relationship decision-making. Some couples also use therapy to strengthen an already stable relationship.
In many cases, yes, but it depends on the provider’s approach. Some couples therapists primarily meet with both partners together, while others may occasionally schedule individual sessions as part of the work. It is best to ask how the therapist structures online couples therapy before getting started.
Often, yes. Many providers can work with couples joining from separate homes, offices, or even different cities. However, licensing rules can still apply based on where each partner is physically located during the session, so it is important to confirm this with the provider ahead of time. For help finding a provider licensed in multiple states, see our guide on finding a therapist licensed in multiple states.
Yes, many couples do. A strong therapeutic connection comes from feeling heard, understood, and supported, not just from being in the same room. Online therapy can still feel personal, collaborative, and emotionally engaging. The therapist’s style, your comfort with the format, and the overall fit all play a role in how connected the experience feels.
The cost of online couples therapy varies by provider, location, session length, and specialty. Some therapists offer private-pay rates only, while others may provide sliding-scale options. Provider profiles often list fees or make it easy to ask about pricing before booking.
Sometimes, but it depends on the provider and your insurance plan. Coverage for couples therapy can vary more than coverage for individual therapy. It is a good idea to ask both the provider and your insurance company what services are covered and what your out-of-pocket costs may be.
Online couples therapy may not be the best fit when there are immediate safety concerns, ongoing abuse, coercive control, severe escalation, or situations where one partner cannot speak openly. In those cases, individual support, in-person care, or local crisis resources may be more appropriate. If anyone is in immediate danger, contact local emergency services or call the National Suicide and Crisis Lifeline at 9-8-8 right away.
Yes. Online couples therapy is not just for married partners—it can help people who are dating, engaged, living together, co-parenting, or in any committed relationship. Many unmarried couples use therapy to improve communication, work through conflict, rebuild trust, navigate major life decisions, or decide what they want for the future. What matters most is not your marital status, but whether both partners are willing to show up, participate honestly, and work on the relationship together.
