Are neurological differences creating tension or misunderstandings?
You may love each other deeply and still feel frustrated, disconnected, or misunderstood.
Conversations might miss the mark, sensory needs may clash, or everyday planning and organization can become a source of conflict.
When partners process the world differently, it’s easy for both people to feel blamed, unseen, or exhausted by repeating the same struggles.
How counseling for neurodivergent couples can help
Neurodivergent couples counseling focuses on understanding differences rather than trying to change them.
Using neurodiversity-affirming approaches, we help couples make sense of how each partner experiences communication, emotion, and daily life.
This work creates space for empathy, clarity, and practical strategies that support connection instead of conflict.
