Health information disclaimer: This directory is informational only and not medical advice. Rankings reflect publicly available Google ratings and review volume, not clinical outcomes. Verify any practitioner’s credentials and registration with the relevant medical board before booking.

How we score

Rating is the live Google average for each clinic or practitioner. Review volume measures how many patients have actually left a review, ranked against the others on this page. Confidence blends rating with volume, so a perfect score built on a smaller number of reviews counts for less than a strong score built on thousands. No business can pay to change these numbers.

How much does marriage counselling cost in Abu Dhabi? (2026)

None of these practices publish session pricing online, and cost typically depends on whether the clinic accepts your insurance and whether sessions are individual or joint, so confirm pricing and coverage directly before booking.

Serving all of Abu Dhabi

These practices cluster around Al Manhal, Al Khalidiyah and Al Muntazah, all within a short drive across central Abu Dhabi, so a marriage counsellor near me in Abu Dhabi is likely one of these clinics depending on your neighborhood.

What to ask before you book a marriage counsellor

  • Do you accept my health insurance, and what is my expected out-of-pocket cost?
  • Do you offer joint sessions, individual sessions, or both?
  • What is your typical approach or framework for couples therapy?
  • How many sessions does a typical course of counselling involve?
  • Do you offer evening or weekend appointments?

Frequently asked questions

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from public Google data. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner (badge + top placement), but that never changes another business’s score or position.

How often is this updated?

This page was last verified in August 2026 and is refreshed periodically as ratings and reviews change.

Is marriage counselling covered by insurance in Abu Dhabi?

Coverage depends on your specific insurance plan and the clinic; confirm directly with the practice before booking.

Do these clinics offer sessions for individuals, not just couples?

Yes, most of the practices on this list, including Dr. Hussein Omar and Dr. Mohamed Al Garhy, also see individual patients alongside couples.

The bottom line

For a broad range of specialists in one place, American Center for Psychiatry and Neurology is the safe starting point. If you’re looking for one clinician for a sustained, trust-based relationship, Dr. Hussein Omar’s perfect rating stands out.
