What is Online Marriage Counselling?
Online marriage counselling, or virtual couples therapy, is when you and your partner meet with a licensed couples therapist to acknowledge and work towards resolving challenges in your relationship via live video sessions, phone conversations, or online video chat.
What Are Some Benefits of Online Marriage Counselling?
Whether in person therapy or online, the end goals of marriage counselling are:
- Improving communication skills to better deal with conflicts in your relationship
