Dr. Orna Guralnik guides couples through honest confrontation with each other and themselves. Revealing conflicts and breakthoughs.
In the first part of season four, Dr. Guralnik uncovers the past secrets and blowups of four new couples. First, is the polyamorous trio as they struggle with power dynamics and hidden resentments. Next, a newlywed couple grapples with religion and sex after severing ties with a disapproving mother. Then, she tries to help a couple who can’t stop fighting for the sake of their child. Finally, Dr. Guralnik decides to prolong treatments for a man with a complicated case. Struggling with dissociations into multiple identities, he can’t remember fights with his partner.
