Kim Salinger
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, MBA, MSN, PMHNP, FNP, AHN
Many adults go through life feeling different without fully understanding why. I provide thoughtful, respectful assessments for autism spectrum traits in adults, including those historically described as Asperger’s, with a focus on clarity, self-understanding, and validation. Care is integrative and individualized, with attention to mental health, medical contributors, sensory processing, and nervous system regulation. Ongoing visits focus on support, education, and guidance to help individuals better understand their needs, strengths, and challenges while building a life that feels more sustainable and aligned.

Urim Recovery, LLC
Therapist, Certified Trauma Therapist, LCSW
While there are many effective ways to support families or adult autistics, it is rare that the family as a whole receives care. My approach is directed, practical and designed to help all my clients implement insights and gains attained inside the session into daily life. I draw on years of specialized and intensive training designed to restore connection and repair attachment wounds to increase closeness among all family members. Feel heard and seen and learn to work with your child to gain better clarity and confidence regarding what will work for YOUR family. If you have received a late diagnosis as a result, our work together will focus on your finding meaning and integration with your diagnosis. Autism can be experienced on so many levels--as identity, culture, with pride or also be perceived as a burden on account of misunderstandings, myths and outright discrimination and prejudice. I offer support to families and/or individuals to better understand how to wrestle with what autism means and how to integrate it into your family or personal identity notwithstanding how it might be perceived culturally, medically or otherwise.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
Many of the adults I work with are thoughtful, capable professionals and students, often in detail‑oriented or technical roles, who have spent years feeling “different” without having language for why. You may be wondering if you are autistic, have a recent diagnosis, or have known for a long time but never had support in making sense of it. From the outside, you may meet or exceed expectations and keep up with work or school. Inside, it can feel like constant effort: managing sensory overload, masking to fit in, replaying conversations, or needing significant time alone to recover from social or emotional strain.
Many adults I see describe a lifelong sense of being out of step with others, feeling misunderstood, or being told they are “too sensitive,” “too intense,” or “too much.” You may have built a life that works on paper but still feels exhausting to maintain. Masking, perfectionism, and trying to meet unspoken social rules can take a real toll on your nervous system and sense of self.
In our work, we approach autism and other forms of neurodivergence through a neurodiversity‑affirming, trauma‑informed lens. We look at how your brain and body naturally process the world, how past experiences have shaped your coping strategies, and what helps you feel more regulated and authentic. The focus is not on changing who you are, but on understanding your wiring, reducing the internal cost of masking, and creating a life that supports your nervous system rather than straining it. This is core to my practice, and it’s work I care about deeply.

Dr. Amanda Malak
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist
I offer psychological assessment to clarify diagnoses for autism or autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and I specialize in providing support to adolescents and adults. Part of this work is done through a contract at Axis for Autism who accepts Medicaid in Arizona. I can complete completely virtual assessments to people around the country, however. Therapeutically, my approach involves helping people unmask as much as possible when it is safe to reduce long-term negative health impacts of masking. Otherwise, life skills training can support people in learning the unspoken rule of social communication in the neurotypical world to develop and maintain relationships personally and professionally when masking is less safe. I work closely with individuals, families, and other professionals to create strategies that foster independence, social skills, emotional regulation, and overall well-being. Through evidence-based therapies and a compassionate, individualized approach, I help people with autism navigate their unique experiences and reach their full potential.

Philadelphia Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PsyD
We appreciate that while people on the spectrum might have some difficulties in life, having a different brain doesn't always have to mean something negative. A lot of the work we do is helping our clients see how their unique brains are contributing to dynamics in their relationships, and what that means moving forward. Sometimes a better understanding of the way one's mind works can help augment relationships in powerful ways.

Glendale is a large Phoenix suburb best known as home to State Farm Stadium and Desert Diamond Arena — a sports and entertainment venue-driven city that coexists with significant working-class and Hispanic communities in its western districts. The city has a large Latino population concentrated in areas like Catlin Court and west Glendale, creating meaningful demand for Spanish-speaking and culturally affirming therapists alongside the more affluent residential communities to the north. Banner Thunderbird Medical Center provides institutional mental health resources, with the broader Phoenix metro therapy ecosystem accessible to residents across the city. Glendale's blend of entertainment-sector workers, suburban families, and working-class communities creates diverse therapy demand that practitioners navigate across a wide range of presentations.
