One of the few documentary projects where the viewer truly learns to understand relationships rather than just observing others' scandals.
SHOWTIME launched the documentary series Family Therapy on September 6, 2019. Clinical psychologist and psychoanalyst Orna Guralnik conducts real therapeutic sessions with couples from New York facing relationship crises. Cameras are hidden behind a one-way mirror, allowing for an authentic process to be captured without staging. The tone is intimate, unsettling, yet healing: the viewer witnesses genuine work on relationships rather than a reality drama. The format consists of 9 episodes per season. If you enjoy In Therapy, The Therapy Documentary, or projects in the spirit of Running from Chris, Family Therapy offers a rare glimpse into human vulnerability.
