Supporting Neurodiverse & Neurotypical Relationships

Every relationship comes with challenges, but when partners have different neurotypes—such as one being neurodivergent (ADHD, autism, or other neurological differences) and the other neurotypical—communication, emotional connection, and daily interactions can feel even more complex.

As a licensed therapist specializing in neurodiverse relationships, I help couples navigate these differences with empathy, understanding, and evidence-based therapy. If you're looking for couples therapy in Silver Lake, I offer a supportive space tailored to your unique relationship dynamics.

How Therapy Can Help Couples with Different Neurotypes

Neurodivergent and neurotypical partners often experience challenges in:

✅ Communication Styles – Differences in processing, verbal expression, and nonverbal cues.
✅ Emotional Regulation – Navigating sensory sensitivities, impulsivity, or different ways of expressing affection.
✅ Conflict Resolution – Bridging misunderstandings due to different perspectives.
✅ Daily Routines & Executive Functioning – Managing time, responsibilities, and expectations.

Through therapy, I help couples build mutual understanding, emotional resilience, and practical strategies to strengthen their bond.
