What Christian-based couples therapy looks like
The core of the work is the same as any good couples therapy: understanding the patterns that keep you stuck, learning to talk and listen without escalating, and rebuilding trust and closeness. What changes is that your faith is treated as a strength rather than something to leave at the door.
Depending on what you both want, a counselor might open with prayer, draw on scripture about love and forgiveness, or help you talk about how your beliefs shape expectations around roles, money, sex or conflict. For some couples faith stays in the background; for others it is central. Read more about how faith fits into counseling.
Approaches you will come across
Most counselors combine faith with one or two research-based methods. The Gottman Method focuses on friendship, managing conflict and shared meaning. Emotionally focused therapy (EFT) helps partners understand the needs underneath arguments. Prepare/Enrich is widely used with engaged couples and in churches. Compare Gottman, EFT and Imago.
Licensed therapist or pastoral counselor?
Licensed marriage and family therapists, professional counselors, social workers and psychologists are regulated by a state board and trained in mental health. Pastoral and biblical counselors may have strong theological training but often hold no state licence. Both can help; it is worth knowing which you are choosing. See how they differ.
Weekly sessions, intensives and reading together
Most couples meet weekly or every other week, in person or by video. Some choose a two- to four-day intensive when things feel urgent or weekly sessions have stalled; see how retreats and intensives compare. Reading together between sessions can help too: here is a reading list for Christian couples. If physical intimacy is part of the struggle, sex therapy for Christian couples is talk therapy that can respect your faith.

Christian couples therapy: common questions
What is Christian couples therapy?
It is couples therapy with a counselor who welcomes your Christian faith into the work. Sessions use established methods such as the Gottman Method or emotionally focused therapy, and can include prayer, scripture or conversations about your shared beliefs if you both want that.
Is Christian couples therapy different from marriage counseling?
The two overlap a lot. Couples therapy is the broader term and also covers engaged and dating couples, while marriage counseling focuses on married partners. Many counselors offer both, so look at the issues they work with rather than the label.
Does Christian-based couples therapy work?
Research supports couples therapy in general, especially approaches like emotionally focused therapy and the Gottman Method. Studies on faith-integrated therapy suggest it works about as well for religious clients, and many couples say it helps to feel their values are understood.
Can we try it if only one of us is a Christian?
Yes. A good counselor will ask how much faith each of you wants in sessions and will not pressure either partner. Say early on that you see faith differently, so the counselor can make room for both of you.
How do we find Christian couples therapy near me?
Browse by state and city below, or filter the directory by location. If there is no one close by, many counselors offer online sessions to couples anywhere in the state where they are licensed.
Can we do Christian couples therapy online?
Many counselors offer secure video sessions. Online therapy widens your choice, but the counselor generally needs to be licensed in the state where you are when you meet.
How much does it cost, and does insurance cover it?
Fees vary by location and profession, often somewhere around $80 to $250 a session, and some practices offer a sliding scale. Insurance often covers couples work only when it is tied to a diagnosis, so ask your plan and the counselor directly.
How many sessions do couples usually need?
Many couples meet weekly for 8 to 20 sessions, though it depends on what you are working through. Your counselor should talk with you about goals and check in on progress along the way.
