So many seemingly happy marriages are crumbling inside.
The couple believes in their marriage's potential. They don't want to give up on it.
But constant conflicts are chipping away at the strong foundation they want to build.
It takes courage to reach out for help.
It takes determination and humility to learn new ways of interacting.
But the biggest challenge is figuring out where to start – and how to pay for it.
Not every therapist is the right fit for every couple or issue, and advice from well-meaning mentors is often misguided.

"It will get better with time."
(Not necessarily. Neglected struggles frequently get worse.)
"Everyone wants instant results these days."
(They’re willing to invest the time and effort – as long as it’s the correct effort.)
"Just go for help, and things will work out."
(The impossible choice: go into debt paying for therapy, or live with the problem.)
As a popular chosson teacher in Yerushalayim, Rabbi Meir Sommer was seeing too many of these situations up close, and felt compelled to start Blev Echad in response.
Blev Echad's approach is three-pronged: ·Identify underlying issues
·Outline a clear plan for improvement
·Subsidize therapy costs
"We were able to gain so much more from therapy once the financial strain was eased."
Blev Echad supports Anglo couples in Eretz Yisroel throughout their therapy journey. We also follow up with the therapists (with the couple's permission) to ensure that there's a defined goal and continued progress. After all, therapy is just a means to the true goal: a thriving marriage.
Blev Echad's impact over the past decade has been tremendous. Families are being transformed as couples learn to work together, integrating their newfound skills to create happier homes. What's more, their children are absorbing these skills by osmosis, benefitting their future marriages, as well.
"…I'm a better me, a better spouse, and a better tatty."
"Our children are growing up in a different home since we started getting help from Blev Echad."
Blev Echad is inundated with requests from rabbanim and couples, but our budget has not kept pace with our ever-growing waiting list.
100% of every donation goes straight to Blev Echad's network of professional therapists and specialists.
Partner with us to help even more marriages thrive.
"I call upon all who can to help support this most worthy cause – the establishment of healthy homes that will raise future generations of K'lal Yisroel."
– Harav Hagaon R' Yitzchak Berkovits, shlita
