Dr. Orna Guralnik is back in session in the fifth season trailer for Couples Therapy, as the Paramount+ reality series has four new couples in crisis looking to save their relationships.
“Are you crying?” psychologist and psychoanalyst Guralnik asks a tearful woman at one point in the teaser as the latest season sees a volatile couple face stark political differences that fuel daily fights, while the discovery of secret, paid cuddling sessions has blindsided another couple.
The upcoming nine new episodes to debut May 15 on Paramount+ will also feature therapy sessions for two people about to move in together and derailed by an autism diagnosis, while teenage sweethearts discover 20 years after falling in love they’ve outgrown the relationship.
“Let’s start again, because it, notice it immediately fell apart, our conversation,” Guralnik tells one warring couple on a couch, as the pair dissolve into nervous laughter as a result. Couples Therapy, executive produced by filmmakers Josh Kriegman, Elyse Steinberg and Eli Despres, spotlights therapy sessions that in real life happen in privacy.
Matt Parker, Olivia Cuccinota and Jessica Hester are producers on the fifth season, and Kim Roberts and Yemisi Brookes direct episodes. On Paramount+ with Showtime, the first three episodes of Couples Therapy will debut back-to-back on May 17, with the remaining new episodes to air weekly.
The award-winning reality series is produced by Edgeline Films. The first three seasons are available on the Paramount+ and the fourth and fifth seasons are offered as part of the Paramount+ premium plan.
