Couples Counseling Center
Counselor/Therapist, Ph.D., LPC
When one or both partners are neurodiverse, building relationship connection requires different skills than traditional couples therapy. I help couples bridge communication gaps, navigate sensory and emotional differences, and create relationship agreements that support each partners’ needs. When you honor who each of you authentically are, you'll create a relationship that uniquely fits you.

Autism and Asperger's
Pamela Angel
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
I am passionate about moving beyond a "disorder" framework to focus on neurodiversity-affirming care—helping clients navigate a world not built for them, manage anxiety, reduce burnout from masking, and build self-advocacy skills. My goal is to provide tailored, affirming support that empowers autistic children and adults to embrace their strengths and live authentically.
