# Relationships.plus

> A warm, inclusive guide to every kind of relationship — couples, families, business partners, friendships, poly and ENM, LGBTQ+ and your relationship with yourself — and a directory of relationship pros (therapists, coaches, mediators and more) matched to exactly what you're working on. Educational only; not therapy, legal advice or a crisis service.

Relationships.plus is an independent directory. People describe what they are looking for; the platform matches them with independent relationship pros. Content is educational only — not medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. Part of the R0cketShip network; sponsors: Somatic Experiences (https://somaticexperiences.com) and Therapists.plus (https://therapists.plus). Licensed providers: Providers.plus (https://providers.plus). In crisis: call or text 988 (US) or 911.
