Neurodivergent Couples and Sex Therapist in Orem, UT

Courtney Ahroon, MFT

As a marriage and family therapist, I am deeply committed to understanding and addressing the intricate layers of human relationships. I work with couples and individuals whose past experiences with trauma, infidelity, sexual shame, and childhood wounds prevent them from having the romantic and sexual intimacy they long for. My work often centers on helping clients move from relational pain to personal and relational empowerment—fostering deeper honesty, emotional resilience in the face of relational distress, and respect for yourself and your partner.

A significant focus of my practice involves working with neurodivergent couples, including those where one or both partners are autistic, have ADHD, or experience other forms of neurological difference. Neurology matters in relationships, and I help clients navigate the unique relational challenges that can arise in neurodiverse partnerships—particularly when intimacy, communication, or sexual connection become strained by misattunement or masking.

I blend several therapeutic approaches to provide comprehensive and trauma-informed care. I blend ego-state therapies, such as Internal Family Systems (IFS), to help clients map and heal their internal worlds; Imago Relationship Therapy to support vulnerable, connection-driven dialogue; and Strategic Therapies to encourage momentum and developmental change. I also draw heavily from Bowen Family Systems to support emotional and sexual differentiation, Relational Life Therapy (RLT) to challenge destructive patterns and build mutual empowerment, and Polyvagal Theory to increase nervous system safety and co-regulation in relational work.

At the heart of my work is a belief that healing comes through honest self-reflection, meaningful connection, and the willingness to grow—even when it’s hard. I strive to create a space where clients feel seen, supported, and challenged to become more of who they truly are. Whether you're working through trauma, navigating neurodivergence, or untangling relational pain, my goal is to help you come back to yourself—emotionally, relationally, and sexually—and build relationships rooted in clarity, integrity, and self-respect.
