Couples that consist of a neurotypical and neurodivergent partner can experience challenges in communication, connection and intimacy. Standard couples counseling can be harmful to these types of relationships because the blame can be placed upon the individual with ASD. Trauma-informed neurodivergent therapy is most beneficial to help these couples develop tools to heal traumas and better communicate, connect and improve intimacy.
