“During my husband’s last deployment, we started using OurRitual to stay connected. The weekly sessions helped us communicate better, and the exercises brought us closer when there wasn’t time to call. It took a lot of stress off our family and made the distance feel easier.”

I've been seeing Jimena for about a year now for both individual therapy and couples therapy. My sessions with Jimena have helped me immensely over this past year and I credit these sessions for my relationship surviving and growing stronger. It's honestly been a game changer to have these regular check ins and I plan to keep going for the foreseeable future. Also, I've tried other therapy apps over the years and they were nowhere near as good as this one.

If you want change, start here.
OurRitual has made being in a relationship so much easier! Our therapist Gastón is an amazing neutral third party who is kind, patient, understanding, can help us understand each other, help us get inside each other's head, help us be more patient and loving, and help us bridge language and cultural differences. Before we started couples therapy, there was tension at home and we were not happy. Gastón, facilitated by OurRitual, has helped us become happier and kinder and more connected than ever. The company help us when we requested a bilingual English and Spanish speaker. To be honest, the price can be a little bit steep if you don't, or can't, pay a few months upfront for the discount, but I would say it has been worth it to be able to message whenever we need to, flexible scheduling, and the connection and healing we've been able to achieve together. We started seeing results in our relationship within a month. Highly recommended!

My husband and I have been on Our Ritual for over a year now and we have made immense progress in our relationship thanks to our wonderful therapist Jimena Burunat. Our sessions with her are intellectual, funny, philosophical and inspiring. She has been instrumental to the well-being of our relationship with each other and ourselves.

Do You Have Any Questions?

Can OurRitual really help couples in the military?

Yes. OurRitual is designed for military couples navigating deployments, transitions, and the constant changes of service life. We provide practical, science-based tools and guided support to help you strengthen communication, rebuild connection, and stay close, whether one or both of you serve.

Is this couples therapy?

OurRitual is not traditional couples therapy. We provide subclinical support, guided by relationship Experts and rooted in science-based practices.

Our Experts include clinical psychologists, marriage and family therapists, and social workers. Each Expert undergoes a meticulous vetting process and completes specialized training that extends beyond their professional background, ensuring they can provide practical and effective support tailored to couples’ needs.

Can we use OurRitual if one of us is deployed?

Yes. OurRitual is built specifically for couples managing distance. You can access your sessions and tools from anywhere with an internet connection — whether you’re at home, on base, or deployed overseas.

Do both partners need to participate?

No. OurRitual works even if one partner takes the lead. Whether you’re deployed, in training, or managing home life, our tools are designed for both individuals and couples, so progress can begin from wherever you are.

How flexible is scheduling?

Very. Our sessions are short (around 40 minutes), flexible, and available 24/7, making it easy to connect when time zones or schedules don’t align. Plus, our self-guided practices are available anytime, so you can continue at your own pace between sessions.

How do we get started?

It’s simple: answer a few quick questions, get matched with a Relationship Expert, and schedule your first session. Most couples begin within 24 hours.

Stay Close, No Matter the Distance.

Begin your OurRitual plan today and take the first step toward more understanding, closeness, and calm in your relationship, at home or away.
