Job Description:

Are you a passionate couples therapist eager to make a meaningful impact? Do you aspire to join a team that is redefining how people experience and strengthen their romantic relationships?

At OurRitual, we are on a mission to empower modern individuals to nurture healthier, more meaningful relationships through continuous hybrid care that blends expert guidance with technology. We are committed to making high-quality relational support accessible to everyone — and we believe the heart of that mission lies in our Expert community.

What sets OurRitual apart is our innovative integration of digital tools with deeply human therapeutic connection. We empower Experts to enhance their work through original audio and video psycho-educational content, personalized member journeys, and a platform designed to support insight, growth, and transformation.

We are now seeking experienced therapists to join our relationally skilled, warm, and values-driven team of OurRitual Experts, working directly with members through Zoom sessions and our digital platform.

As a Relationship Expert with OurRitual, you will:

• Conduct 1:1 sessions with members to assess their relationship goals and collaboratively choose the most fitting educational pathways.

• Review member questionnaires, emotional check-ins, and journal prompts to personalize care and deepen relational insight.

• Facilitate individual and couple sessions that integrate therapeutic materials with real-time relational shifts.

• Engage with our dynamic expert community, sharing reflections, participating in peer learning, and contributing to the culture of relational excellence that defines OurRitual.

What It means to be an OurRitual Expert

Our Experts embody four core values that shape how we support members and one another:

Continuous Growth

You are committed to learning — integrating platform tools, staying current with research, and refining your craft through feedback, training, and peer exchange.

Trust Builder

You create safe, warm, authentic spaces where members feel seen and valued, practicing transparency, presence, and empathy.

Impact Shaper

You show up with preparation, attunement, and follow-through, using both digital and relational tools to cultivate meaningful change.

Care Collective Member

You engage respectfully and supportively with colleagues in Slack, townhalls, and peer supervision as part of a community grounded in shared care.

To support your growth in these areas, OurRitual offers an Insight Panel that helps Experts track engagement, usage patterns, and evolving areas of impact — empowering you to see your progress and celebrate development over time.

Qualifications:

• Certified and licensed psychologist, social worker, or counselor with a graduate degree in mental health from a recognized university.

• At least 4 years of experience working with couples and individuals on relationship-related concerns and distress.

• Open to integrating digital tools (video, audio, and text) into your practice.

• Fluent English speaker with the ability to quickly establish trust with clients.

• Able to commit to at least 12 hours weekly.

• Preferably skilled in EFT, CBT, IFS, DBT, Gottman, or Differentiation approaches.

• Committed to ongoing professional development.

• Curious, creative, and comfortable in a fast-paced, agile environment.

• Intuitive and capable of improvising in tense situations.
