Couples therapy
For partners who keep having the same argument, who feel distant, or who are preparing for marriage and want to start well.
Couple & family therapy · Aramoun & online
A calmer way back to each other.
I'm Alaa Shameseddine. I help couples, families and women understand what is happening between them, and find a gentler way to talk, repair and stay close.
Every request is answered by me personally, within 1 Hour.
تذكّري
Emotion is not weakness. It is a compass.
About Alaa
A room where every voice gets heard.
I'm a couple and family therapist, and much of my work is with women. I look at what happens between people rather than at who is to blame: the patterns a couple or a family keeps repeating, and what each person is trying to say underneath them.
Outside the therapy room I write in Arabic about women's psychology, emotion and relationships, so that more people can name what they feel before it becomes a crisis.
How I help
Three ways we can work together.
Family therapy
For families living through a change or a conflict that touches everyone: parents, children, and the space between them.
Sessions for women
A space of your own to understand your emotions, your relationships, and what you need from them.

Questions
What people ask before the first session.
Do we both need to come to couples therapy?
It works best when both partners come, but you can start alone. We decide together when and how to invite your partner.
Is what I say confidential?
Yes. What you share stays in the session, within the professional and legal limits I explain when we first meet.
Do online sessions work for couples and families?
For most, yes. You need a private place and a stable connection, and it helps when partners sit together on one screen.
How long is a session, and what does it cost?
Couples therapy: 60 mins, $50. Family therapy: 60 mins, $60. Session for women: 45 mins, $30.
What if I need to cancel or move my appointment?
