Couples therapy — online or in-person in Gurgaon
Most couples don't come to therapy at the first sign of trouble. They come after years of trying to work it out themselves — and when they finally reach out, there's often a mix of exhaustion and hope in the same breath. Whatever brought you here, there's no situation too early or too far gone to have this conversation.
If you've never done couples therapy, it can feel like a black box. Here's what it actually looks like with Ruchi.
Both partners speak. The sessions aren't one person presenting their case while Ruchi decides who's right. You'll each have space to say what you actually experience — and often, hearing it said in a structured setting changes something.
Ruchi's job is not to arbitrate. It's to help you understand each other — often for the first time. That means staying neutral, asking questions that open things up, and naming patterns that are hard to see from inside them.
Sessions are 60–75 minutes — longer than individual sessions because you're doing more in the room. Most couples work through a specific issue in 8–12 sessions. Some choose to do longer work; some come back at transitions. There's no pressure either way.
Ruchi works with couples at all stages — newly together, long-married, thinking about separation, or somewhere in between.
One partner being willing to engage is enough to start. Individual therapy focused on your relationship can shift dynamics significantly — even when your partner isn't in the room. You can work on how you communicate, what you're bringing from your history, what you actually want, and how to create conditions that might eventually make your partner more open. Ruchi will never pressure anyone, and she won't make the unwilling partner into a villain. If your partner changes their mind, the door is open to move to joint sessions. The right first step is the one you're actually willing to take.
Couples sessions are 60–75 minutes to allow both partners adequate time. No hidden fees, no intake charges.
Sliding scale fees available. Contact us if cost is a barrier — no one who genuinely needs support should be turned away.
For couples therapy, both partners attending together is the default format and usually the most effective. That said, Ruchi sometimes recommends individual sessions alongside the joint ones — particularly if one partner needs a private space to process something before bringing it into the room together. She'll discuss session structure with you once she understands your situation.
Yes, absolutely. Individual therapy focused on your relationship can create real change even when only one partner is willing to engage. You can work on how you show up, how you communicate, what you're bringing from your own history, and what you actually want. Relationship dynamics rarely require both people in the room to shift. If your partner changes their mind later, you can transition to joint sessions.
Most couples working on a specific issue — recurring arguments, communication breakdown, rebuilding after a breach of trust — tend to find meaningful resolution in 8–12 sessions. Some couples do longer-term work, particularly where there are individual histories that feed into the relationship patterns. Some come for a shorter check-in at a transition point (moving in together, having a child, deciding whether to stay). Ruchi will give you her honest read early on.
Yes. Research supports online couples therapy as equally effective as in-person, and many couples find it more practical — especially if one or both partners travel frequently, live in different cities, or simply can't coordinate getting to a clinic at the same time. Sessions are on video, both partners present on screen. It works well.
Absolutely. Couples therapy is for any committed relationship — married or not, same-sex or otherwise, long-distance, newly together, years in. There's no relationship structure required. What matters is that there's a relationship you care about and want to work on.
