Talk with a Licensed Marriage Counselor Online Today

Yes. Research on video marriage counseling finds outcomes comparable to meeting in person, and it is the same counseling with the same kind of licensed marriage counselor: licensed by a state board, keeping clinical records, working from a plan. The only difference is where you sit.

You keep the weekly session, by video instead of across a desk, and the practice in between. What you skip is the commute and the waiting room. If you want to compare, start with a 1-week trial.

One live session with your counselor, by video, at a standing time that is yours. Then one short piece of practice they picked for you to try in real life: ten minutes, not an evening.

In between, message your counselor anytime, as often as you like, so a hard week does not have to wait for the next session.

You answer a short questionnaire, a matching specialist reads it and matches you with a licensed marriage counselor from clinicians they know personally, and you have your first session in your first week, by video.

From there you have a standing weekly time, one short piece of practice to try before the next session, and a counselor you can message in between.

Yes. You can write to your counselor any time, day or night, as often as you like, and it is included in your plan.

Your live session is a weekly video call at a standing time you choose, so you always know when you will next talk.

Yes, and plenty of people do. Working on the marriage by yourself still changes what happens in it. The plan and the price are the same either way, and if your spouse joins later you move to sessions together without starting over.

Yes. Sessions can be together, on your own, or a mix of both, on the same plan at the same price. Some weeks you both want the session; other weeks one of you needs it alone.

Every counselor is licensed by a state board, keeps clinical records and issues superbills. Licensed clinicians, not coaches.

A matching specialist reviews your answers and your state, then matches you with a counselor who fits what you want to change, from clinicians they know personally. If the fit turns out wrong, you switch free.

Yes. You tell us your state in the questionnaire, and your match holds a license from that state's board, the same as a counselor in an office across town. Sessions happen wherever you are in your state, at home or on the road.

Your counselor tells you after the first one, so you are not signing up for something open-ended. Most people meet weekly for a few months, then taper off or stop once the pattern has shifted. You are never locked in: cancel anytime in your account.

Yes, at no cost. If the fit turns out wrong, tell us and we move you to another licensed marriage counselor. Your plan and your standing time stay the same.

Start with a 1-week trial: a session and messaging with your counselor. If it is not for you, cancel in your account before the trial ends, and nothing more is charged. If the problem is the fit, you can switch counselors free instead.

After the trial, your plan is billed every 4 weeks until you cancel, and you can cancel anytime in your account: future charges stop and the weeks you already paid for run to the end.

Usually not, and that is true of marriage counseling almost everywhere, in an office or online. Health insurance pays to treat a diagnosed condition in one person, and a marriage is not a diagnosis, so to bill insurance a counselor has to diagnose one of you, and that stays on their medical record.

So most couples pay for counseling themselves, which keeps a diagnosis off anyone's record and no insurer deciding how many sessions you get. Every counselor issues superbills you can submit for possible out-of-network reimbursement, and HSA and FSA cards work at checkout.
