Couples therapy

Therapy for couples whose different ways of processing and communicating keep getting in the way of connection.

What this is

When two people process and communicate differently, the same misunderstandings can repeat until they feel inevitable. Couples therapy is a place to slow those patterns down and find what actually works for both of you.

The goal isn’t to make either partner more like the other. It’s to make the connection work for both of you.

Who this is for

  • Couples in mixed-neurotype relationships.
  • Couples caught in repeated patterns of misunderstanding, conflict, or shutdown.
  • Couples where one or both partners are ADHD, autistic, or both.

My approach

I am warm, direct, and collaborative. I help couples see the patterns beneath the conflict, how different ways of processing show up as missed signals, shutdown, or frustration, and work with both partners to change them.

I am neurodivergent-affirming. I don’t frame either partner’s way of being as the problem. We look at how the relationship can make room for both of you.
