EMPOWERING NEURODIVERGENT MINDS

---

 Autism
For autistic individuals, therapy can be a space to embrace and celebrate strengths while addressing the challenges of living in a neurotypical world.  The effort involved in masking—attempting to fit in by adjusting language, communication, and emotional responses—is often significant. This "masking" frequently leads to distress and a sense of disconnection. 

In therapy, we work to unpack these experiences, helping you find supportive resources, a sense of community, and an understanding of your authentic self. We explore how sensory tools, focused interests, and routines can support self-regulation. Together, we identify and celebrate your unique strengths , working to create a life that genuinely aligns with your identity and aspirations.

ADHD
For individuals with ADHD, therapy focuses on harnessing the incredible strengths that come with a neurodivergent mind—such as hyperfocus, creative thinking, and problem-solving—while addressing the challenges of everyday life. ADHD can bring paradoxical experiences: an ability to think outside the box and hyperfocus yet often paired with unexplained underachievement, difficulties with organization, and a wandering mind. These traits can make planning, procrastination, and restlessness ongoing struggles.

Together, we’ll work on strategies that go beyond personal willpower by adjusting environments, building supportive routines, and emphasizing self-care. By recognizing how ADHD impacts daily life, we can use practical tools to reduce overwhelm and foster connection, creativity, and growth. Therapy can be a place to redefine success on your terms, creating a fulfilling life that embraces the unique energy and capabilities of an ADHD mind.
