Ally - Bringing Effective Couples Therapy Tools to Everyone

1 in 3 couples are experiencing relationship distress, still most couples never seek help, or they wait too long. Clara and Helga, licensed psychologists and couples therapists, met couples daily at their clinic who would have benefited so much had they sought help sooner. That’s why they created Ally - a couples app designed to help couples improve their connection, communication and intimacy, or resolve relationship issues - from the comfort of your own home. Ally offers self-guided exercises from couples counseling that you can practice at your own pace, without having to talk to a stranger and at the fraction of the cost of couples therapy. For real couples, by real psychologists.
