why we are different

More than traditional couples therapy

OurRitual offers flexible sessions based on your schedule with or without your partner. These are supported by exercises and educational content you can do on your own time with specific pathways designed to fit your needs and goals.

Solo or together –
we're here for you

We offer individual plans (in addition to couples plans) that don't even require a partner to join every session. It only takes one person to start making a difference.

The interface demonstrates how users can engage with the platform individually, supporting the message that the service works for both solo and coupled users.

Short, effective, and to the point

Take control over your progress with short 20 to 40-minute sessions that are paired with additional content you can complete on your own time. Convenient, effective, and built for you.

Hundreds of 5-star reviews

I got a new job in another state, when we tried getting professional help it turned out to be super complicated with schedules and regulation. Ritual’s model definitely simplified things for us.

Rachel, 35

For years we’ve had this recurring fight. Tonight when it came up, we took a step back and rewatched the video together. It changed EVERYTHING! Turned an old argument into a good conversation.

Veronica, 35

I thought he’d be a different kind of father and the disappointment really affected our connection. Ritual helped me see his side of the story without turning my back on myself.

Taylor, 40

Everyone kept telling me I should leave, It felt so lonely. Our expert Naomi helped us realize what the infidelity meant for us with zero judgment. Thank you!

Michelle, 45

We needed some help getting important messages across but we really didn’t want to feel judged for our lifestyle. Finding something as private as this has been a true blessing.

Maria, 27

The pain and shame I’d feel each time I got jealous was too intense to talk about with my girlfriend. Having the option to do relationship work on my own changed everything.

Jessie, 27

My husband would never have gone to a traditional therapist. With Ritual, he feels comfortable, he can do things on his own terms.

Nia, 32

The shame I felt for what happened made me act in ways that only made the distance worse. I didn’t believe an online program could make a difference, but it did.

River, 28

We had a tough time reconnecting physically after what had happened. I felt frustrated and lonely. The videos helped me with practical tips to open up and stay calm.

We like our counselor, Victoria, which I think is very beneficial, in that we feel comfortable speaking with her. We also like the flexibility of switching to another counselor if need be. We like the flexibility of scheduling meetings with our schedules.

Our expert, Naomi, was the biggest factor. She was insightful, professional, and gave us the feeling she had a dedicated interest in helping us grow as a couple and improve our interactions. I also particularly enjoyed and appreciated the reflection/journaling component after the lessons which allowed me to shift my perspective.

Do you have
Any questions?

What is OurRitual?

OurRitual is a service that helps you overcome relationship struggles so your bond with each other remains fulfilling, passionate and healthy.

We wanted as many people as possible to have access to fantastic relationship support. The kind that fits their lifestyle, circumstance and schedule. So we created flexible programs using proven interventions, where you can be seen and understood, break the negative cycles and reignite that special thing in the core of your connection.

How Does It Work?

During our program you’ll work with
a trained professional therapist who can offer a wide variety of evidence-based therapeutic interventions. In between your sessions, you’ll receive weekly in-app videos and exercises that target your specific needs and goals. In between your sessions, you’ll receive weekly videos with tried-and-tested knowledge and exercises focused on your specific needs and goals.
The sessions with your dedicated Expert will help you integrate what you learned into everyday life.

Is this Couples Therapy?

Great question! OurRitual is not considered to be classic couples therapy. Our program uses elements of couples therapy, such as face-to-face meetings with trained professional therapists from various states, who can offer a wide variety of evidence-based therapeutic interventions. Differences between couples therapy and OurRitual include the possibility of individual, relationship-focused work, shorter sessions (twenty vs. fifty minutes), and an emphasis on relationship education and skill acquisition. Our app also offers a host of tools for growth in-between sessions. We do offer deeper work and support for severely distressed couples who need it.

How Long Does the Program Take?

That’s up to you. We believe in a clear end game, so we divided our content into units we call Pathways, and we match you with the Pathway that suits your goals and needs. Most members take about 1-2 months with each Pathway, and they usually move on to at least one more once they are done.
