What couples therapy involves

Couples therapy brings both partners into the room, or the video call, together with a therapist trained to work with two people rather than one. Many couples therapists use structured, evidence-based models such as the Gottman Method or Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), which look at the pattern underneath a recurring argument rather than just the argument itself, to help partners rebuild trust, communicate more clearly, and navigate conflict in a way that actually holds up at home.

You don't need to be in crisis to start: some couples come in ahead of a known friction point, to prepare for marriage, or simply to build stronger habits together. Sessions are typically weekly at first and taper off as things improve. The providers below work specifically with couples and can help you find the right fit for where you are.

Frequently asked questions

Does insurance cover couples therapy in Miami?
Often only partially. Because couples therapy doesn't always map to an individual diagnosis, many plans don't reimburse it the way they do individual therapy, and some providers bill it as individual treatment for one partner instead. Check each provider's profile below for how they handle insurance for couples sessions.
How many sessions does couples therapy usually take?
It varies widely by what you're working on. Some couples see meaningful change in 8–12 sessions; others work with a therapist for months, especially after a significant breach of trust. Ask a provider directly about their typical timeline during a first consultation.
Can we do couples therapy online in Miami?
Yes. Many couples therapists offer secure video sessions, which can make it easier to find a consistent time that works for both partners. Look for telehealth availability on individual profiles below.
Which couples therapists in Miami accept insurance?
8 of the 11 couples therapists on this page accept insurance, most commonly AvMed, BCBS and Optum. Check each provider's profile below for the exact plans they take.
