Couples Therapy Q&A – Your First Step Toward Reconnection

 

Are you asking yourselves:
"How can we get back what we once had?"
Or perhaps:
"How can we grow together without losing ourselves?"

 

Questions like these are the very beginning of the couples journey—
and by looking for answers, you’ve already taken an important first step.

This page addresses the most common questions about couples therapy,
and offers a glimpse into what your relationship can look like
when you choose to place it at the center.

1. What Is Couples Therapy and Why Is It Important?

Couples therapy isn’t just about “fixing” things—it’s about discovering how to listen, speak, and experience each other in a new way.
It’s a journey where we ask questions like:

  • What drives us?
    And how can we build a relationship where we both remain free, yet deeply connected?

  • What gets in our way?

Instead of seeing the relationship as a chore, we begin to see it as a space for shared growth.

Because like anything beautiful, a relationship needs care—not only during hard times, but always.

2. Who Is Couples Therapy For?

Couples therapy can be helpful in many situations: Are you experiencing ongoing tension or recurring conflicts? , Or maybe you simply feel like “this could be more”?

Many couples come to therapy not just because something is wrong—but because they have a dream:
To strengthen their bond, discover new depth, and feel true partnership.

Ask yourselves: Are we ready to put our relationship first—and see what that might change?

3. How Does Online Couples Therapy Work?

In one of my online sessions, a couple told me: "We’ve never talked like this — not even when we were together at home or in in-person therapy."

What makes online therapy unique is the ability to meet from a place where you feel safe and comfortable —
on your own couch, with a warm cup of tea — and connect from within your own familiar space.

We’ll use interactive tools like screen sharing, emotional exercises, and conversations tailored to your needs.
Physical distance doesn’t have to be a barrier — on the contrary, it can open the door to genuine emotional closeness.

 

 

4. How Long Is a Couples Therapy Session?

Each session lasts 90 minutes—time that is fully yours.
It’s a chance to pause the outside noise, turn inward, and give space to what truly matters.

"Why an hour and a half?" couples sometimes ask.
Because that’s the time it takes to move from the surface to the depth — the depth where real change happens.

5. How Long Does the Couples Therapy Process Take?

Is there a clear end to the journey?
On average, the process lasts around 16 sessions—but the key isn’t the number of meetings. It’s your intention.

In therapy, we don’t “count sessions.” We shape a process that fits you, and measure progress by the moments that feel different: Moments when you understand each other instead of arguing. A conversation that brings you closer, not further apart. A sense that, maybe for the first time in a long while, you’re on the same side again.

6. How Much Does Couples Therapy Cost, and How Do We Pay?

Each session costs 555 NIS and is paid in advance.
I understand that financial investment can be a factor—but think of it this way: How much do we invest in other parts of life—work, children, vacations?

And the real question is: 

How much are we willing to invest in one of the most important things—our relationship?

I’m here to make this process accessible and adapted to you, with flexible payment options (Bit, PayBox, or bank transfer).

7. What If One of Us Is Hesitant About Therapy?

When one partner is unsure about couples therapy, it’s not the end of the road —

it’s an opportunity to begin a process that fits your current reality, while staying clear and focused on your goals.
What can you do?

  • Understand the dynamic

Often, reluctance stems from fears or misconceptions about therapy—
fear of blame, judgment, or having to face difficult emotions.

Try to speak with your partner openly and gently, without pressure:

"I feel like we could really benefit from learning together how to strengthen our connection."
"It’s not about blaming—it’s about understanding each other better."

  • Respect boundaries, but keep the door open

Instead of trying to convince or push, invite your partner to reconsider therapy at their own pace.
Readiness can grow—especially when they feel respected.

  • Start with a process that’s right for you

If your partner isn’t open to couples therapy right now, you can begin with individual therapy for women.
This isn’t about “fixing” the relationship alone—it’s about reconnecting with yourself,
exploring the patterns that affect your relationships, and strengthening your sense of worth and choice.
This personal process can bring about a soft but meaningful shift in your relationship, even without your partner’s direct involvement.

  • Keep a clear boundary between individual and couples therapy

In couples therapy, the work is done with both partners together.
It starts and continues in a shared space where you grow, understand, and heal as a couple.

  • Stay patient and optimistic

Relationship change takes time.
Sometimes, when you begin your own inner work, it naturally shifts the dynamic between you.

I’m here to support you—whether through couples therapy (when both are ready),
or individual work that offers insights and tools for your life and relationships.

8. How Will We Know It’s Working?

I often ask couples: "What are you hoping will happen? How will you know things are changing?"

And the answers are always different.

One couple describes conversations that feel lighter.
Another notices a new sense of partnership in even the smallest tasks.

Success in therapy isn’t always a dramatic breakthrough — it lives in the small moments that, together, create real change.
