About us
Specialist online therapy for neurodivergent adults, couples and relationships across the UK.
At VIVA Therapy, we are a neurodivergent practice specialising in therapy for ADHD, autism, AuDHD, anxiety and relationships. We support individuals and couples who want to better understand themselves, improve their relationships and move away from simply surviving towards living with greater confidence, connection and self-acceptance.
Many of us have lived experience of neurodivergence ourselves, alongside specialist professional training and experience. We understand that ADHD and autism are not problems to be fixed, but that living in a world that often isn't designed for neurodivergent minds can leave people feeling overwhelmed, misunderstood, burnt out or disconnected from themselves and the people they love.
Whether you're seeking support for yourself or your relationship, our aim is to provide therapy that feels affirming, practical and collaborative, where you don't have to mask, explain yourself or fit into someone else's expectations.
Who we help
Individual therapy
We work with adults who are experiencing:
- ADHD, autism and AuDHD
- Anxiety and chronic worry
- Burnout and overwhelm
- Rejection sensitivity (RSD)
- Emotional regulation difficulties
- Low self-esteem and self-doubt
- Perfectionism and imposter syndrome
- Masking and identity
- Relationship difficulties
- People pleasing and boundaries
- Life transitions and self-discovery
Couples therapy
We specialise in couples where one or both partners are neurodivergent, helping with:
- Communication difficulties and recurring arguments
- Feeling unheard, misunderstood or emotionally disconnected
- ADHD or autism impacting the relationship
- Rejection sensitivity and emotional reactivity
- Different communication styles and emotional needs
- Trust, repair and rebuilding connection
- Navigating life, parenting and household pressures
- Intimacy and emotional closeness
- Ethical non-monogamy and polyamorous relationships
Our approach
Therapy isn't about changing who you are. It's about understanding the patterns that have developed, recognising what has shaped them, and discovering new ways of responding that feel more authentic and sustainable.
We recognise that no two people experience neurodivergence in the same way, so we tailor therapy to you rather than expecting you to fit a particular model.
Our therapists draw on a range of evidence-based approaches, always adapting our work to your individual needs, goals and strengths.
We are also proudly LGBTQ+ affirming and committed to creating a space where every client feels respected, welcomed and understood.
