Why should Americans chose an international relationship therapy agency?
In addition to favorable exchange rates. Here are some reasons...
Work with Relationship Specialists
Agencies like Betterhelp and Regain pay low rates to their therapists. Which means they often attract newer therapists without specialist training. Relate's team include some of their countries top experts, many with decades of marriage and relationship experience. Each team member has training in at least two models of specialist relationship counseling.
Access to Global Expertise
Relationship dynamics vary across cultures, and an international agency brings diverse perspectives from experienced counselors worldwide. This can provide fresh insights and more effective strategies than those rooted in just one cultural framework.
More Personalized Attention
Large U.S.-based platforms often rely on automated matching and overbooked therapists. A smaller international agency offers personalized responses, direct communication, and a tailored approach—ensuring you’re not just another client in a system.
Flexible Scheduling Across Time Zones
With therapists across different time zones, an international agency can offer more flexible appointment times—perfect for busy professionals, night owls, or couples in different locations.
Many of Relate's team members are based in New Zealand and Australia. This means that our team has open appointments on Sundays and evenings.
A Judgment-Free Perspective
Some American therapists operate within a culturally specific lens that may not align with your relationship values. An international agency provides a broader, more inclusive approach, making it easier for non-traditional couples or those with multicultural backgrounds to find understanding support.
Privacy & Confidentiality
If you’re worried about seeing a local therapist in your area, an international agency allows for greater anonymity—giving you the freedom to be open and honest without concern for local social circles.
No Geographical Limitations
The Relate team's licensure and credentials allows them to work internationally without geographical boundaries.
Insurance
The use of insurance can often create artificial and unhelpful prescriptions on the therapy process and length. Relate will provide a receipt so that you claim your insurance, we do not involve ourselves in that process. Our sole focus is supporting your relationship.
