Autism and Asperger's
Aims Beardslee
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, EdS, MS
I have lived experience as a late identified/diagnosed autistic person and have done numerous trainings (facilitated by autistic people) on neurodiversity affirming therapy and assessments.
(Note: Asperger's is no longer a diagnosis, but this specialty listing only had the choice of "Autism and Asperger's".)

Autism and Asperger's
Dr. Yanet Vanegas
Psychologist, PsyD
Through evidence-based interventions such as Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), I have worked closely with individuals across the spectrum to address core deficits and enhance adaptive skills. By breaking down complex behaviors into manageable components, I implement structured and individualized behavior plans tailored to each person's specific needs and strengths. Utilizing positive reinforcement and systematic prompting, I foster the acquisition of new skills and behaviors while reducing challenging behaviors.
