Therapy for Neurodivergent Dating Fatigue, and Relationship Burnout

ADHD, Anxiety, Being Ghosted, Attachment and the Emotional Rollercoaster of Modern Dating

You find yourself constantly checking the facebook “Are We Dating the Same Guy?” daily. You’ve hyperfocused on dating apps, swiping for hours. You’ve tried to keep up with the endless back-and-forth texts—until it all felt boring, overwhelming, or just plain exhausting.

You’ve been on more first dates than you can count. You’ve played it cool. You’ve opened up, shut down, stayed hopeful, ignored red flags, gotten ghosted, and walked away feeling like you’re always too much—or not enough. The dates never lead anywhere. You start to blame yourself, your appearance, your awkwardness or your attachment style. The loneliness patterns start to feel familiar. And being the third wheel with your coupled-up friends only pushes you back to more swiping… or more isolation.

You want real connection. Maybe that means marriage, children, or a long-term partner—or maybe it doesn’t. But you know you want something that lasts. And lately, that dream feels farther and farther away.

When Dating Feels Like a Full-Time Job with No Payoff

Being Neurodivergent Makes Dating Even More Complex

Dating with ADHD, Anxiety, or Autism Isn’t Just “Hard.” It’s Emotionally Draining and Mentally Exhausting.

Dating apps can be overstimulating. Small talk feels like a performance. Trying to be emotionally available while managing executive dysfunction, sensory sensitivity, anxiety, and past heartbreak?
That’s not just hard. That’s a lot.

You may notice:

You get attached quickly—or can’t tell if you’re even interested until it’s too late
You have a hard time reading their social cues.
You second-guess everything you say, text, or feel
Rejection feels physically painful, not just emotionally disappointing
You lose track of your own needs while trying to seem “chill,” “easygoing,” or “low-maintenance”
You crave deep connection but get overwhelmed by constant messaging or unspoken expectations

Therapy That Gets It—and Gets You

I’m Victoria Prisco, a licensed therapist, Special Education Teacher and ADHD specialist who works with women and neurodivergent adults who are tired of feeling like the problem in their own love lives. My practice is inclusive of all relationship structures, identities, and orientations—whether you’re monogamous, polyamorous, queer, straight, questioning, or somewhere beautifully in between.

Together, we’ll explore:

How ADHD and anxiety are affecting your dating patterns
Why rejection hits so hard (and how to bounce back without self-blame)
How to build emotional regulation and self-trust
The difference between attachment styles and trauma responses
How to date with more clarity, less burnout, and zero self-abandonment

You don’t need to change who you are to find love. You just need support that actually understands how your brain—and your heart—work.

You are relationship material—even if dating has made you forget that. If you’re tired of endless swiping, situationships, and feeling like the problem, let’s talk.

Therapy can help you feel grounded, empowered, and aligned with the life you still want—and deeply deserve.
