Neurodivergent refers to individuals whose neurological development and functioning differ from what is considered typical or neurotypical. This term is often used in discussions about conditions such as ADHD, dyslexia, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and other neurological variations. Neurodivergent individuals may have unique ways of thinking, processing information, and experiencing the world.
Neurodivergent Therapy
Neurodivergent Individual Therapy
When working with a neurodivergent clients, I aim to provide a safe and validating space where they can explore their identities, build self-esteem, and develop practical skills to navigate both personal and interpersonal aspects of their lives.
Neurodivergent counseling emphasizes acceptance, understanding and the celebration of neurodiversity as an integral part of human experience.
I work collaboratively with neurodivergent clients to explore and understand their specific cognitive, sensory, and social processing styles. The focus is on:
- Developing coping strategies
- Enhancing communication skills
- Addressing challenges related to emotional regulation
- Managing social interactions
Neurodiverse Couples Therapy
This specialized form of counseling recognizes and addresses the unique dynamics present in relationships where one or both partners are neurodivergent. By acknowledging and embracing neurodiversity within the relationship, this therapy approach aims to help couples:
- Navigate their differences
- Build connection
- Cultivate a more harmonious and fulfilling partnership
Intimate relationships can be hard, but they are especially challenging when partners have different perspectives, communication techniques, approaches, and skill sets.

As a certified neurodiverse couple’s therapist, I’ve discovered each couple is unique, so helping each couple is unique. Options include working with the couple together or meeting individually with each partner and then coming together as a couple. There are times when the neurotypical partner is the only person in the couple that I meet with.
