Phillip McCulley
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, CSAT
I work with autistic adults and neurodivergent clients who want support navigating relationships, communication, intimacy, and sexuality in ways that feel authentic and sustainable. Many autistic people experience relationships and desire differently than what is often portrayed as typical, and therapy can be a place to explore these differences without pressure to change who you are.
In our work together, we focus on understanding your unique communication style, sensory needs, emotional experiences, and relationship expectations. This may include support around dating, long term partnerships, consent, boundaries, sexual desire, or navigating mismatched needs within a relationship. I help clients develop clearer communication strategies and greater self understanding so relationships feel less confusing and more rewarding.
I also provide a supportive space to explore sexuality and identity without judgment. This can include working through shame, anxiety, or uncertainty related to sexual expression, orientation, or gender, as well as understanding how sensory sensitivity, routine, or emotional regulation can impact intimacy. The goal is not to force a specific outcome, but to help you build relationships and a sex life that align with your values, comfort, and needs.
