RELATIONSHIP CONCERNS

What Couples Therapy Can Help With

From changing expectations in relationships to social media, boundaries, intimacy and attachment, couples today often face problems that are not limited to traditional relationship conflict.

Trust, Cheating & Modern Infidelity

+

Physical or sexual infidelity, emotional affairs, secret chats, dating apps, hidden online connections, sexting, pornography concerns, deleting messages and uncertainty about what counts as cheating. When betrayal is the main concern, you can also explore focused support after infidelity.

Social Media, Attention & Digital Boundaries

+

Excessive attention seeking online, following or messaging others, comparing the relationship with social media couples, checking phones, privacy disagreements, online flirting and different expectations around digital boundaries.

Attachment, Jealousy & Unhealthy Relationship Patterns

+

Fear of abandonment, clinginess, emotional withdrawal, reassurance seeking, possessiveness, controlling behaviour, silent treatment, repeated breakups, chasing and distancing, or difficulty feeling secure with each other. Broader concerns around these patterns can also be explored through relationship counselling.

Communication, Anger & Emotional Disconnection

+

Repeated arguments, defensiveness, criticism, shutting down, feeling unheard, resentment, unequal emotional effort, difficulty apologising and gradually feeling more like roommates than partners. Married couples looking for support focused specifically on their marriage can also explore our marriage counselling support.

Sex, Intimacy & Different Relationship Needs

+

Different levels of desire, sexual rejection, loss of attraction, pornography expectations, difficulty initiating intimacy, affection differences, sexual communication and feeling wanted, respected or emotionally connected.

Boundaries, Independence & Future Decisions

+

Friendships, ex-partners, work relationships, personal space, money, careers, living together, family involvement, marriage expectations, children, relocation and deciding whether the relationship still fits both people's future. If you are preparing for marriage, our premarital counselling can help you discuss these decisions before the wedding.

COUPLES THERAPY APPROACHES

How We Approach Couples Therapy

The approach depends on the relationship, the concerns involved and the therapist’s professional training. Couples are not placed into one fixed method.

01

Gottman Method

For conflict patterns, communication, trust, friendship and rebuilding connection.

02

Emotion-Focused Therapy

For emotional disconnection, attachment needs and recurring pursue-withdraw cycles.

03

Attachment-Informed Work

For insecurity, fear of abandonment, reassurance seeking, withdrawal and closeness.

04

CBT & Behavioural Approaches

For thoughts, reactions and behaviours that repeatedly affect the relationship.

05

Couple & Family Therapy

For boundaries, family influence, roles, expectations and wider relationship systems.

06

Trauma-Informed Therapy

When past experiences or trauma responses are affecting the present relationship.

No One-Size-Fits-All Method Therapists may combine approaches depending on the couple and how therapy develops.
CLIENT EXPERIENCES

What Couples Say After Starting Therapy

REPEATED CONFLICT

“We stopped treating every disagreement as a separate problem and started recognising the pattern we kept falling into.”

TRUST & INFIDELITY

“After trust was broken, we could barely discuss it without another fight. Therapy gave those conversations some structure.”

EMOTIONAL DISTANCE

“We were functioning normally but did not feel close anymore. Sessions helped us understand how that distance had slowly developed.”

LONG-DISTANCE

“Distance had made small communication problems much bigger. We became clearer about reassurance, expectations and what each of us needed.”

FAMILY PRESSURE

“There were too many opinions around our relationship. Therapy helped us separate family expectations from decisions we needed to make together.”

RELATIONSHIP DECISION

“We came in unsure whether to continue. The therapist did not push either outcome, but helped us understand what was actually keeping us stuck.”

Couples also join us online from Noida, Chandigarh, Ahmedabad, Kochi, Indore, Lucknow, Bhopal, Surat, Bhubaneswar and Guwahati, along with other locations across India.

PRACTICAL QUESTIONS

Online Couples Therapy India FAQs

How much does online couples therapy cost in India?

+

Online couples therapy at LeapHope costs ₹3,700 for a 60-minute session and ₹4,500 for a 90-minute session. You can choose the session length when booking.

How long is an online couples therapy session?

+

Couples can choose between 60-minute and 90-minute sessions. A longer session may be useful when both partners need more time to discuss complex or emotionally difficult concerns.

How many couples therapy sessions are usually needed?

+

The number of sessions depends on what you are working on and how established the problem is. Your therapist can review progress after the first few sessions rather than prescribing a fixed number in advance.

How often should couples attend therapy?

+

Couples often begin with regular sessions, but frequency depends on the concern and the therapist's assessment. Sessions may become less frequent as the work progresses.

Can I start couples therapy if my partner does not want to come?

+

Yes. One partner can begin individually when the other is not ready. Therapy can explore your relationship concerns and what you can work on, while recognising that some couples work requires both partners.

Can a couples therapist meet us separately?

+

Yes, a couples therapist may sometimes meet partners separately as part of the work. The therapist should first explain how confidentiality, private disclosures and information from individual meetings will be handled.

Can we join couples therapy from different locations?

+

Yes. Partners can join the same online session from separate devices and different locations. This can be useful for long-distance couples, NRIs and partners temporarily living in different countries.

Is couples therapy covered by insurance in India?

+

Insurance coverage for couples therapy varies by insurer and individual policy. If you plan to claim reimbursement, check directly with your insurance provider before booking.

Is online couples therapy private and confidential?

+

Yes. Online couples therapy is private and handled confidentially within professional and legal limits. LeapHope sessions are not recorded. Your therapist should also explain how confidentiality applies when either partner speaks with them separately.

Can parents or family members join a couples therapy session?

+

Parents or family members are not normally part of couples therapy. Their involvement may sometimes be considered when it is therapeutically useful and both partners agree, particularly when family dynamics are central to the concern.
