Mia Turner
Therapist, MA, RYT, ASDCS, LMFT, NPT-C, CMNCS, CMIP
Neurodiversity-affirming Autism therapy for teens and adults and Autism evaluations for adults seeking deeper self-understanding, validation, support, and clarity. As an AuDHDer, my work is especially attuned to the experiences of high-masking, late-identified, gifted, AFAB, BIPOC, LGBTQIA2S+, creative, PDA, quirky, curious, spiritually-oriented, and otherwise frequently overlooked Autistic and AuDHD individuals whose experiences may have been misunderstood, missed, dismissed, or pathologized for years.
Support often focuses on identity, sensory experiences, monotropism, passionate interests, communication and relational styles, autistic burnout, nervous system regulation, interoception, executive functioning, self-advocacy, belonging, and the lifelong impact of adapting within environments that may not have recognized, understood, or supported autistic needs. Exploration may include the influence of culture, race, gender, disability, chronic illness, family systems, spirituality, community, trauma, and societal expectations, as well as the internalized ableism and narratives that can develop when your natural ways of being are repeatedly questioned, corrected, accommodated too little, or misunderstood.
Particular attention is given to the ways masking, overcompensation, chronic self-monitoring, perfectionism, people-pleasing, hyper-independence, and other adaptive survival strategies can emerge in response to misunderstanding, marginalization, trauma, and the pressure to appear more neurotypical. Autism is understood not simply through behaviors or traits, but through the lived experience of moving through the world in an Autistic bodymind. This includes the relationship between sensory processing, energy capacity, nervous system states, movement, rest, transitions, interests, environmental fit, authenticity, and safety.
Rather than focusing on how to appear more neurotypical, therapy centers self-understanding, self-trust, self-accommodation, and creating a life that honors your natural rhythms, sensory needs, interests, values, strengths, and ways of relating. My approach integrates EMDR, somatic therapy, mindfulness, parts work, expressive arts, executive functioning support, geek therapy, and neuropsychotherapy through a neurodiversity-affirming, nervous-system-centered, and liberation-oriented lens.
I also provide comprehensive virtual Autism evaluations utilizing a culturally conscious, sensory-informed, neurodivergent-affirming approach designed to identify presentations that are frequently overlooked in traditional assessment settings. Evaluations move beyond checklists and stereotypes to include an in-depth exploration of developmental history, lived experience, sensory patterns, masking, strengths, challenges, identity, relationships, nervous system patterns, and neurotype, resulting in a thorough affirming report with personalized recommendations, resources, and a deeper understanding of yourself through a lens that recognizes difference rather than deficit.
