For autistic people, embarking on a therapeutic journey should be a unique and personalized experience. I offer a safe and understanding space for clients seeking support in navigating the complexities that may arise in daily life. Whether you’re seeking assistance with social communication, sensory sensitivities, or navigating relationships, my approach is tailored to your specific needs, providing a confidential setting where we can collaboratively explore challenges and foster personal growth.
Understanding and embracing one’s neurodiversity is a central focus of my therapeutic approach. I work with clients to develop strategies for managing stressors, enhancing communication skills, and building self-confidence. Together, we navigate the intersection of individual strengths and challenges associated with being autistic, creating a therapeutic alliance that fosters self-discovery and empowerment.
Choosing psychotherapy to address autism-related concerns reflects a commitment to personal growth and wellbeing. I specialize in creating a supportive and empathetic therapeutic relationship, focusing on the unique strengths and needs of each individual. Whether you’re seeking assistance with daily life challenges or exploring your identity within the context of autism, I am dedicated to providing a safe and collaborative space where we can work together towards a more fulfilling and authentic life.
NOTE: Autism is somewhat different from other mental health issues, like depression or anxiety, in that it is considered a neurodevelopmental condition. In some states (including Georgia), neurodevelopmental conditions such as autism or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) can only be formally diagnosed by certain medical doctors and psychologists. If a school or government entity requires a formal diagnosis in order to provide services for autism-related issues, I can assist you in getting connected with an appropriate professional whose scope includes those assessments.
