The 11 Best Online Couples Therapy Services in 2025

Of all the online couples therapy options we tested, Ours stood out as the most personalized and comprehensive choice for couples seeking in-depth support. Its unique approach includes customized matching between couples and therapists, ensuring each couple works with someone aligned with their relationship needs.

All users first meet virtually with a “care advocate” from Ours, who is a licensed therapist. In the 15- to 30-minute meeting, you, your partner, and the care advocate discuss why you’re coming to therapy, what types of therapy might be helpful for you, and preferences in the demographics or schedule of a therapist. This is a standout feature of Ours, considering that other online therapy companies use automated algorithms to match clients with therapists.

I tested couples therapy on Ours with my husband. As a licensed therapist, I was truly impressed by the company’s thorough intake process. Not only did I complete questionnaires detailing my relationship history and future relationship goals, but my care advocate and my therapist continued to follow up with requests for additional details.

That said, the consultation costs $50. If you sign up for your first session, the fee is applied toward the session’s cost. Otherwise, it is nonrefundable, which may be a barrier to some couples.

Care advocates remain in touch after the consultation, continuing to highlight how Ours prioritizes a personalized approach to online therapy. I regularly received emails during treatment, ensuring I felt comfortable with my therapist and had all billing questions answered.

Additionally, the relationship tools provided for use outside of therapy sessions allowed my husband and I to continue improving our relationship without paying for additional sessions. These tools are called “Card Decks,” and they contain prompts to encourage meaningful conversations between partners. They cover a range of relevant topics and include helpful details like estimated time commitment (from 10 to 60 minutes) and a question intensity scale from 1 to 5. This intensity rating is especially useful for couples navigating sensitive topics, as it helps them gauge the depth of each prompt. The card decks were a great complement to our couples therapy.

Ours does have some limitations. It doesn’t accept insurance, which can make it a pricier option, and the website interface can be confusing at times. I struggled to find answers to my questions on the website and was surprised to discover the company offered individual therapy, because it’s not noted on its website prior to sign-up. But despite these drawbacks, Ours remains a strong recommendation because of its excellent customer service and practical additional tools that truly enhance the user experience.
