Neurodiverse Couples Therapy

“Love like everything else, exists in a spectrum.”
— Roger Housden

No Relationship Is Without Its Challenges

This is equally true for Neurodiverse couples where one or both individuals are Neurodivergent. I support Neurodivergent couples and Mixed-Neurotype couples gain clarity around the unique nuances of their relational dynamic by providing couples therapy and individual counseling support for those with Autism (ASD).

You Are Seen. You Are Heard. You Are Appreciated.

Relational struggles can leave you feeling frustrated, disengaged, and hurt, and for those in a Mixed-Neurotype relationship, the intensity of these complex emotions can be especially painful. Feelings of being judged and completely misunderstood and undervalued can leave both individuals feeling exhausted, anxious, and starved for emotional connection.

There Is Hope. There Is SO Much Hope!

For over 15 years I have been mesmerized by the resilience of love on the Spectrum! I have seen hurt become healed, confusion become clarity, and isolation become emotional re-engagement. There is always a hopeful way forward. I hope that you will give yourself and each other another chance to reconnect, repair past hurt, and grow closer together in a supportive and compassionate environment.
