Frequently Asked Questions About Couples Therapy in Riga

Answers to common questions about our couple therapy services, approach, and what to expect from sessions at Win-Win Therapy

About Our Approach

What makes Win-Win Therapy different from other couples therapists?

We specialize in cross-cultural relationships and offer extended 2-hour sessions that allow for deeper work than traditional 50-minute sessions. Our approach combines psychotherapy expertise with practical coaching, and we work with couples both in-person in Riga and online worldwide.

What is your experience with cross-cultural couples?

Cross-cultural relationships are our specialty. Eva and Peter themselves are a Latvian-British couple, so we deeply understand the unique challenges of navigating different cultural backgrounds, communication styles, and expectations in relationships.

What issues do you help couples with?

We help couples with communication problems, cultural differences, conflict resolution, intimacy issues, trust and betrayal, life transitions, parenting disagreements, and general relationship dissatisfaction. We're especially experienced with challenges unique to international and cross-cultural relationships.

Is couples therapy confidential?

Absolutely. Everything discussed in therapy sessions is completely confidential. We follow strict professional ethics and privacy standards to ensure you feel safe sharing openly.

Practical Information

How long are therapy sessions?

Our sessions are 2 hours long. This extended format allows us to go deeper into issues and achieve meaningful progress in each session, rather than just scratching the surface.

Do you offer online therapy sessions?

Yes! We offer secure online therapy sessions for couples anywhere in the world. Our online sessions are just as effective as in-person sessions and follow the same 2-hour format.

What languages do you offer therapy in?

We conduct therapy sessions in English. Eva also speaks Latvian and Russian, and Peter is a native English speaker, which helps us work effectively with international and cross-cultural couples.

Where is your office located in Riga?

Our therapy space is located at Čaka iela 83/85 in central Riga, Latvia. This location is easily accessible by public transport and offers convenient parking options.

Getting Started

How many sessions will we need?

Every couple is unique, but most couples see significant improvement within 6-10 sessions. Some couples achieve their goals faster, while others choose to continue for ongoing support. We'll discuss your specific needs and create a plan together.

Do both partners need to attend every session?

Yes, couples therapy works best when both partners attend all sessions. The work we do requires both of you to be present, engaged, and committed to the process.

What if one partner is hesitant about therapy?

It's common for one partner to be more hesitant than the other. We recommend having an initial consultation where we can address concerns and explain how therapy works. Often, hesitant partners become enthusiastic once they experience the supportive, non-judgmental environment we create.

How do we book our first session?

You can book your initial consultation by contacting us through our contact form, by email at info@winwintherapy.com, or by phone at +371 26 385 599. We'll arrange a time that works for both of you, and provide all the details you need before your first session.

What should we expect in the first session?

In your first session, we'll get to know you as a couple, understand your relationship history, identify your current challenges, and discuss your goals for therapy. We'll also explain our approach and answer any questions you have. By the end, you'll have a clear sense of how we can help.
