Support for Couples

You're not broken.

Your relationship isn’t either.

But your relationship may need care, curiosity, and better tools.

Are you stuck in the same argument?

Does it feel like you're not on the same team?

If you're feeling stuck in looping arguments, distant even when you're together, or unsure how to meet each other’s needs, you're not alone. Whether you're navigating neurodivergence, burnout, parenting, past trauma, or just the stress of modern life, your relationship deserves support that gets you.

I understand the ups and downs of relationships. I have been in a mixed neurotype relationship for 20+ years. I do not have a perfect partnership and have learned over the years what is really important in relationships. I help couples discover what is important to them.

I'm Dre Meller (they/she), a queer, neurodivergent therapist who works with couples who are ready to stop just surviving and start connecting again. Whether you’re newly partnered or decades in, healing is possible. Together, we’ll create space for each of you to be seen, heard, and understood without shame, shutdown, or blame.

Schedule a Consultation

I help partners:

Understand and shift painful patterns of communication
Build trust and emotional safety
Navigate neurodiversity in your relationship with compassion (ADHD, autism, sensory differences, and more)
Repair from rupture and learn to fight fairer
Reignite intimacy (even if it’s been a while)

I believe relationships come in many shapes and forms,

and ALL are worthy of care, attention, and respect.

I work with couples, polycules, co-parents, and chosen family systems, affirming those who are creating connection outside of traditional, patriarchal molds. Whether you're monogamous, polyamorous, queer, neurodivergent, or forging your own path, I offer a nonjudgmental space to explore your dynamics, deepen trust, and navigate conflict with more clarity and compassion.

I draw from Emotionally Focused Therapy, somatic work, IFS, and Gottman tools, while always centering consent, equity, and a trauma-informed lens. I also bring a lived understanding of neurodivergence and queerness into the room.

This isn’t cookie-cutter couples work. We’ll co-create sessions that honor your identities, challenges, and the kind of love you want to build.

This is relational therapy for people who:

Are done with outdated gender roles and want to create something more aligned
Feel like one of you is always “too much” or “not enough”
Want to communicate without spiraling into defensiveness or shutdown
Are trying to balance parenting, careers, mental health, or burnout
Want support from someone who understands neurodivergent wiring and doesn't pathologize it

What It’s Like

Working Together

Therapy with me isn’t clinical, cold, or about checking boxes. It’s collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to who you are, not who the world expects you to be.

You don’t need to mask or explain every detail. I understand how burnout, trauma, neurodivergence, and everyday life intersect in messy, human ways.
We go at your pace. Sometimes that means deep processing, and sometimes it means sitting in silence or talking about what’s hard to name. All of it is welcome here.
