About Maring
Hi, I'm Maring! I'm an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist specializing in neurodivergent couples and individuals — and an acupuncturist with a deep belief in the body-mind connection.
In my own life, I've experienced the joys and challenges of parenting a neurodiverse child, and navigating relationships with different ways of thinking, feeling, and communicating. I know how hard it can be to love each other deeply and still feel stuck in patterns of misunderstanding.
Together, we'll slow things down, listen with compassion, and build tools that work for your unique partnership.

Neurodivergent-Affirming Care
ADHD, autism, and other neurodivergent traits are differences, not deficits. I create a space where your brain is welcomed exactly as it is.
We'll explore how neurodivergence shapes communication, emotional regulation, and attachment — and find strategies that work for your brain.
A late ADHD or autism diagnosis can reshape how you see your entire history. I help you process grief, identity shifts, and the relief of finally having answers.
Somatic techniques help neurodivergent clients regulate their nervous systems, reduce overwhelm, and reconnect to their bodies without judgment.
