"Couples Therapy" is a documentary series following couples as they seek the help of psychoanalyst Dr. Orna Guralnik with their troubled relationships; coming off their previous success with the award-winning documentary "Weiner", executive producers Josh Kriegman and Elyse Steinberg are collaborating on the unscripted series that will feature real couples from New York City and its surrounding areas; the show strives to present the participants and the therapy process with empathy and not sensationalism as viewers track the couples' progress with Dr. Guralnik through each episode.

Kathryn VanArendonk New York Magazine/Vulture 04/16/2021
Except instead of intending to capture people as they hit the lowest point they can, and instead of producers goading participants into traumatic revelations, Couples Therapy sets up its magic peek-inside office and then stays silent behind the wall.

Couples Therapy is doing something so fascinating and special: hooking the audience with real people's honesty and vulnerability, making us root for them to get their trains back on track, and showing us how hard that work is to do. Go to Full Review Andy Dehnart Reality Blurred 04/18/2021

It's absolutely riveting television, but the the remarkable part is how it's also intimate without being exploitative, and observational instead of judgmental. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

04/21/2021 The kind of TV that leaves you feeling more connected to your world and a little less alone. Watching the couples' struggle and grow together throughout the pandemic is so touching. Much like Season 1 I plan on recommending this show to everyone I know. See more Read all reviews
