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.

Kayzim Suárez-Reyes
Psychologist, PhD
My practice holds a significant, neurodiversity-affirming specialization in supporting individuals on the Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). I understand that autism is a difference in how the brain processes information, not a deficit. I help clients navigate the unique challenges of sensory processing, social communication, and intense special interests, moving beyond masking and toward authentic self-expression. Whether you are seeking a late-in-life diagnosis, or need support managing overwhelm and building meaningful connections, I offer a compassionate, evidence-based approach that respects your unique strengths and needs. I also have close loved ones with high functioning autism!

Jennifer Canu
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Living in a neuro-typical world as a neuro-divergent individual contributes to unique challenges, such as masking, increased risk for exploitation and increased mental health symptoms such as anxiety and depression. I support neuro-divergent clients recognize, access and embrace their strengths, empowering one to self-advocate and find success in various life areas.

Phillip McCulley
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, CSAT
I work with autistic adults and neurodivergent clients who want support navigating relationships, communication, intimacy, and sexuality in ways that feel authentic and sustainable. Many autistic people experience relationships and desire differently than what is often portrayed as typical, and therapy can be a place to explore these differences without pressure to change who you are.
In our work together, we focus on understanding your unique communication style, sensory needs, emotional experiences, and relationship expectations. This may include support around dating, long term partnerships, consent, boundaries, sexual desire, or navigating mismatched needs within a relationship. I help clients develop clearer communication strategies and greater self understanding so relationships feel less confusing and more rewarding.
I also provide a supportive space to explore sexuality and identity without judgment. This can include working through shame, anxiety, or uncertainty related to sexual expression, orientation, or gender, as well as understanding how sensory sensitivity, routine, or emotional regulation can impact intimacy. The goal is not to force a specific outcome, but to help you build relationships and a sex life that align with your values, comfort, and needs.

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.

TREATMENT AND TOOLS FOR TRAUMA
Licensed Psychoanalyst, PH.D., IN PSYCHOANALYSIS AND NEUROSCIENCE, CERTIFIED PSYCHOANALYST, PSY.A, & LICENSED PSYCHOANALYST
My practice will diagnose and treat the 5 variations of autism including Asperger's Syndrome, Rett Syndrome, Childhood Disintegrative Disorder, Kanner's Syndrome, and Pervasive Developmental Disorder. I believe these problems are primarily a result of problems in the brain. The brain is not working normally, and hence neither is the mind. My treatment involves mind/brain approaches.

Beth Janis
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I enjoy working with neurodivergent individuals (e.g., ADHD, Autism, SPD) and their families to better understand themselves, the strengths and uniqueness of their differently-wired brains, and the areas in which they feel stuck. I utilize a neurodiversity-affirming lens that emphasizes seeing the whole person and that integrates their preferences related to sensory processing, communication and relationships, and special interests. I value collaborating with other service providers and joining with the individual and family at any stage of the diagnostic and self-discovery process.
