Marriage shouldn’t be a survival challenge!

There are many different challenges that could obscure the beauty of a marriage.

But no matter the issue, couples in Eretz Yisrael have an address to turn to:

Rabbi Meir Sommer of B’lev Echad.

 “We’ve spoken to many rabbanim but Rabbi Sommer was the first person that fully understood the situation that we’re in.”

An Impossible Choice

Therapy can be prohibitively expensive and is almost never covered by insurance, quickly adding up in cost. For many couples, turning to parents for financial help risks damaging the delicate relationships with their parents / in-laws, making it an unviable option.

Faced with an impossible choice, couples must decide between going into debt—which can exacerbate the tension in their already fragile marriage—or living with unresolved issues, which inevitably worsen over time. As a result, what could be a relationship that fosters growth and connection turns into a painful burden.

Future Repercussions

Even worse, if the couple has children, they’re growing up in an unhealthy setting. Their concept of marriage and how to interact with a spouse is being shaped now. The future repercussions are tremendous.

Taking the Focus Off Money

At B’lev Echad, we believe that no couple should have to choose between buying groceries and their marital health. 

Our goal is to eliminate the financial barriers so that couples can focus on addressing the real issues at hand. Through your support, couples can engage fully in the therapeutic process: developing their connection, learning new tools for communication and problem-solving, and ultimately becoming the strong, united pair every couple aspires to be.

Our Mission

Our mission is crucial: Empower every couple in Klal Yisrael with the tools they need to foster a thriving marriage, a peaceful home, and future generations equipped to build their own strong, lasting marriages.
