Counselors & Therapists Specializing in Neuro-Affirming Approaches
Your abilities, perspectives, and passions shape how you experience the world. Our therapists respect your strengths and take the time to understand your communication preferences, sensory needs, learning styles, and goals. Our office can be adjusted to meet your sensory needs so you feel comfortable and supported.
Your differences in learning and thinking are natural variations, not deficits. Embracing this neuro-affirming perspective, we work to reduce stigma around autism, ADHD, and other neurodivergent identities while highlighting your interesting and wonderful brain.
With so many ways to take in, store, and retrieve information, differences are not only expected, they are part of what makes you who you are.
Who We Work With
Our clients include high school students, college students, transition-age young adults, and adults.
Whether you’ve just received an autism or autism spectrum diagnosis, suspect you may be autistic, or have known for years, counseling can help you build confidence, understand your strengths, and move forward with support.
