Story Strategy & Research, Impact Documentary
Relationship
Breakthrough
Documentary revealing how late neurodivergent diagnosis transforms struggling relationships into thriving partnerships, challenging mental health systems to serve neurological diversity.
The Challenge
Traditional couples therapy often harms neurodiverse relationships by treating autism and ADHD traits as relationship problems to be fixed. Mental health professionals need training in neurological differences.
What they told me
"We want to make a documentary about neurodiverse relationships to help couples communicate better."
What I'm discovering
Through deep listening with couples, communication issues often mask the profound relief and understanding that comes with late diagnosis—couples aren't broken, they're neurologically different.
My Approach
Intimate interviews with real couples sharing their journey from decades of misunderstanding to authentic connection, combined with expert insights on neurodivergent relationship dynamics.
The deeper story: Late diagnosis brings relief, not just challenges, and often dramatically improves mental health and relationship satisfaction.
Expected Impact
Educational partnerships with organizations like Autism Self Advocacy Network (ASAN)
Training resource for American Psychological Association (APA) continuing education
Festival run at neurodiversity and mental health film festivals
Media coverage in autism advocacy publications and neurodiverse outlets
Professional education for therapists working with neurodiverse couples
Community validation for isolated couples who've felt broken by traditional systems
Why This Matters
Mental health professionals need to understand that accommodation isn't compromise—it's necessary for neurological differences. This documentary will show positive outcomes possible with proper understanding and support.
