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.

Jerome, 38

When our first therapist wasn’t a match we were assigned a new one who has been great. The app is fairly simple to use

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.

I enjoy doing the growth work and talking with our expert. Ritual also feels unique compared to other platforms or services. Though I have not tried it, it is also exciting to see new features being added like the check-ins.

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.

I really needed to speak to someone about my relationship issues & don't have anyone here. Belen listened, asked questions to get me thinking and looking at things from a different perspective, reassured me and allowed me to draw what I needed from out interactions.

Do you have 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.

What kind of science-backed tools does OurRitual offer?

We wanted OurRitual to meet the most rigorous standards of scientific evidence and effectiveness. Research has shown that psycho-educational content (videos) can streamline the progress people make in session by giving them the tools they need and ways to practice them (journaling, progress evaluation).

Is this couple’s 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.

How much does OurRitual cost?

• Individuals: Starting at $128/month ($32/week)
• Couples: Starting at $208/month ($52/week)
