Couples Therapy at

The Relationship Gym 

Fostering warm and secure relationships

Welcome to The Relationship Gym - a psychological practice offering couples therapy right in the heart of Stockholm! My name is Jan-Paul Ratajczak and I am the founder of The Relationship Gym (in Swedish: "Relationsgymmet"). I am a passionate and experienced couples therapist as well as a qualified psychologist working in Stockholm. My mission is to help couples overcome relationship ruptures, improve communication skills, increase intimacy and connection, and build more joy and happiness in their relationships. 


I provide couples therapy in-person at my office located at Markvardsgatan 5, 113 57 Stockholm. Alternatively, you can arrange an online session and be seen from the comfort of your own home. Couples therapy sessions are available in English, Swedish and Polish. I also offer family counseling and individual relationship therapy here in Stockholm.


New Comprehensive Clinical Assessment for Couples

I now offer a comprehensive and thoghroug clinical assessment of your relationship. The assessment map your strengths/challenges, recurring patterns and needs for intervention.  (Read more here).


Research shows that for both physical and mental health, the quality of relationships especially intimate partner relationships is crucial. The longitudinal Harvard Study of Adult Development, which has followed people for decades, clearly confirms this.

Couples Therapy in Stockholm, sessions are available now!

Currently I have availability to take on new referrals and offer a free 20-30 minute consultation over the phone to gauge if we would be a good fit in working together in couples therapy. This allows you to experience a "mini" couples therapy session and gives you the opportunity to ask any questions. If you are interested, please reach out and send me an email at: info@relationsgymmet.se

There are a number of issues and topics we can focus on within couples therapy. Here are some examples of what I can offer:

  • Improving communication skills
  • Repairing and healing relationship ruptures (e.g., due to conflict or an affair)
  • Strengthening intimacy and connection
  • Exploring the role of early childhood traumas and how trauma may be impacting the relationship
  • Building fondness and admiration
  • A safe space to explore a difficult dilemma affecting the relationship (e.g., whether to have children)
  • Improving work-life balance as a way of improving the quality of your relationship
  • Incorporating fun and romance back into your relationship!

Our goal is to help you learn, grow, and thrive in your relationships.
