Red flags and telling-offs: Married at First Sight counselling 'nothing like the real thing'

Summary

Nutrition label

68% Informative

Married at First Sight is a bold social experiment, where single people marry total strangers.

The show has three matchmaking experts - Paul Brunson , Mel Schilling and Charlene Douglas .

To what extent is what we see on TV similar to the therapy that happens in a real counselling room? Counsellor Emma Loker says the format of the show is "somewhat like group therapy".

Mel 's intervention with Caspar seems to have helped the couple, but Dr Lee cautions that the advice the experts dish out is often too short-term for it to have a lasting impact.

Dr Lee says it's important to remember that the primary focus of the show is to entertain and what the experts say "shouldn't be considered sound therapeutic advice".
