Hello & Welcome!

We're Kim and Mike O'Connell — married, in practice together, and building something we believe in deeply: therapy that actually understands the shape of your life.
We specialize in ADHD-affirming therapy — including late-diagnosed women and couples where one or both partners are neurodivergent — and in advanced couples therapy for the real, complicated stuff: high conflict, infidelity, disconnection around intimacy, and the slow drift that happens even in good marriages. We work with couples and families across the whole life cycle, from engaged couples preparing for marriage to couples who've been together 40+ years navigating what connection looks like now.
If any part of that sounds like you, we'd be glad to talk.
Who We Work With
If any of this sounds like you, you're in the right place.
For Couples & Families
○ Couples navigating high conflict, infidelity, or disconnection around intimacy
○ Couples where one or both partners are neurodivergent — ADHD, autism, or both
○ Couples and families adjusting to a major life transition — a new baby, empty nest, retirement, illness, or loss
○ Long-term couples — married 10, 20, or 40+ years — wanting to reconnect
○ Couples who want to learn how their patterns interact to create space for deeper communication and collaboration
○ Parents and adult children navigating closeness and differences as they age and grow into new versions of their relationship
○ Parents of young or school-age kids wanting to parent well and create real connection amid the chaos of this season
For Individuals
○ Women recognizing their ADHD for the first time in adulthood
○ Individuals working through anxiety or depression
○ People processing a recent breakup and wanting to understand patterns behind it
○ People working through family-of-origin dynamics or healing generational trauma
○ Single adults — newly divorced or never married, navigating dating and modern relationships
○ Men navigating anxiety, depression, fatherhood, or relationship struggles they've never quite had the language for
○ Men untangling complicated relationships with mothers or maternal figures and how those patterns show up in their adult relationships
Our Services!

Individual Counseling
A lot of what brings people to individual therapy is relational at its core — a recent breakup, family-of-origin patterns, generational trauma, or the disorientation of dating again after divorce or as a single adult. We also see plenty of high achievers whose success on paper doesn't match how exhausted they feel underneath it, people navigating anxiety and depression that crept in quietly and stayed, and people carrying grief that's looking for a place to be witnessed, not rushed. Wherever you're starting from, we'll help you make sense of it.

Couples Counseling
Couples work isn't a footnote for us — as Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists, we see therapy as deeply relational. We're also trained in Restoration Therapy, which looks at how ruptures in love and trust create painful cycles couples can get stuck in. Whatever your pain cycle looks like — high conflict, infidelity, intimacy disconnection, mixed-neurotype, we'll help you rebuild love and trust and find your way back to peace and connection with one another.

Family Counseling
Families adapt constantly — through transitions, divorce, illness, and grief. We help families navigating a new ADHD or neurodivergence diagnosis, a difficult medical diagnosis, or the everyday complexity of blending two families into one. Whatever's testing your family right now, we'll help you stay connected instead of just getting through it.

Prepare-Enrich
Prepare-Enrich is the gold standard in couples assessments, backed by over 45 years of research and development. It gives couples a clear, evidence-based look at their relationship's strengths and growth areas — covering communication, conflict resolution, stress management, and more. It's an excellent tool whether you're preparing for marriage or a long-married couple looking to reconnect with intention.

ADHD Affirming Care
Kim is an ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider (ADHD-CCSP) with a deep, personal understanding of what late diagnosis looks like, and Mike brings hands-on experience with mixed-neurotype couples — including his own marriage. Together, we support individuals navigating a new or late diagnosis, especially women (whose ADHD is so often missed), and couples building a shared language across two different neurotypes.
Meet the Team
Kim O'Connell, LMFT, MT-BC
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Music Therapist - Board Certified
I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist — and an adult diagnosed with ADHD later in life, which brought equal parts grief and relief: grief for the version of myself who spent years trying to fix what was never broken, and relief in finally having language for it. That shapes how I walk alongside you, your partner, or your family through life's transitions, helping you build a foundation of love, care, and kindness for yourself that ripples into the relationships that matter most.
I use a systemic, experiential model to help you recognize family patterns, feel grounded when anxious, and build trust with yourself and others — creating real relational wellness through better communication, deeper intimacy, and stronger connection.
I'm also a mother, which shapes the attentive, unhurried presence I bring into the room. Outside of session, I coach my boys' youth soccer team (a game I played through college), make up songs about everyday life, and have recently discovered a green thumb — hands-in-the-dirt therapy that needs no words at all.

Mike O'Connell, LMFT
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (Indiana & North Carolina)
AAMFT Approved Supervisor Candidate
I have a passion to journey with individuals and couples as they seek to restore love and trust in their life and relationships.
I specialize in working with couples struggling with communication, intimacy, life transitions, and conflict (including infidelity, addiction, abuse, and trauma).
I also work with men who may be experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions, paternity, and relationship struggles.
All clients (individual and couple) will come to understand their behavioral responses caused by our internal experiences of pain, what we refer to as the pain cycle. We will then map out and organize new opportunities for personal responsibility and predictability, referred to as our peace cycle. We will seek together how to practice and strengthen making decisions within our peace cycle instead of making decisions while coping with our pain cycle.
