The COVID pandemic has affected nearly every aspect of our lives and relationships are no exception. In this special episode of Couples Therapy, we are taken through the experiences of various couples as they navigate the challenges that the pandemic has brought to their unions.

First, we meet Jenna and Alex, a couple who had been engaged for over a year before the pandemic hit. They were planning a grand wedding with all their loved ones in attendance, but as reality sank in, they had to cancel their plans. The couple shares how the disappointment of canceling their big day was further compounded by the months of social distancing that followed. They recount how they went from being excited to start their lives together to struggling to stay connected as they spent endless days isolated in their apartment.

Next, we meet Richard and Rebecca, a couple who had been together for five years before the pandemic hit. They were both working professionals, but when the lockdown went into effect, they suddenly found themselves working from home. They share how the transition to remote work was difficult, as they had to navigate competing demands on their time, including their relationship. Richard and Rebecca describe how they had to adjust their communication style and create boundaries to prevent their work from consuming their home life.

In another story, we meet Sean and Melissa, a couple that was already on the brink of a breakup before the pandemic hit. They recount how the pandemic forced them to confront the issues that their relationship had been struggling with for years. Sean shares how he had always been emotionally disconnected from Melissa, but the pandemic made him realize how much he needed her. Melissa, on the other hand, shares how the pandemic forced her to confront her codependency issues and learn to stand on her own.

We also meet Aaron and Michelle, a couple that had only been dating for a few months before the pandemic hit. They share the unique challenges they faced as they got to know each other while maintaining social distance. They describe how they had to find creative ways to stay connected despite the physical distance, including virtual dates and socially distant walks.

Finally, the show features the story of Andrea and Chris, a couple that had been together for ten years before the pandemic hit. They share how the pandemic has brought them closer together, even as they faced financial struggles and uncertainty. They recount how they were forced to slow down, reconnect, and appreciate each other more deeply.

Overall, Couples Therapy's The COVID Special is a touching and relatable portrayal of how the pandemic has affected relationships. The couples' stories offer a glimpse into the unique challenges they have faced during these uncertain times and what it means to navigate them together. The show is a reminder that even in the midst of a global crisis, love and connection can still thrive.
