I have not read Dooyeweerd himself, but I am familiar with his ideas.
What are some basic critiques of his sphere-sovereignty teaching?

What are some basic critiques of his sphere-sovereignty teaching? | Actually one of Dooyeweerd’s critics, and a rather informed one since he was a close colleague at the VU and brother in law, was Theodoor Vollenhoven
Good articles on their divergences
