Neurodiverse-affirming care for ADHD, autistic, and auadhd couples and parents
Supporting neurodiverse couples and parents with compassionate, practical tools that honor how your brain works.
Neurodiversity can shape how we parent, partner, and connect.
At Paloma Psychology, we help parents and couples understand how their unique characteristics show up in daily life and discover tools that bring steadiness, empathy, and connection back to the forefront.
Neurodiverse-affirming therapy
Dr. Sarah Arango’s passion for working with neurodiverse couples and parents stems from her own lived experience and being part of a neurodivergent family.
Couples
Neurodiversity can impact our communication styles, executive functioning, emotional expression, daily routines, intimacy, and much more. Whether you are a mixed neurotype couple or are both neurodiverse, we are here to help.
Parents
Parenting is demanding—and parenting as a neurodiverse adult can add layers of complexity that often go unseen. Neurodiverse parents may navigate sensory overload, emotional intensity, executive functioning challenges, or differences in communication, all while trying to show up fully for their children.
We work with neurodiverse parents to create realistic, compassionate strategies that honor how your brain works—not how parenting is “supposed” to look. Therapy is a space to reduce shame, build self-understanding, and develop tools for regulation, connection, and sustainable parenting. Together, we focus on supporting both you and your child, helping you parent in a way that feels more grounded, authentic, and aligned with your values.
