Autism
Heart Bonds Counseling
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Many adults discover later in life that they may be on the autism spectrum — often after years of feeling different, misunderstood, socially exhausted, or chronically overwhelmed. A late diagnosis (or even just exploring the possibility) can bring both relief and a lot of complex emotions. We provide a respectful, neurodiversity-affirming space to process that experience while helping you better understand your strengths, sensory needs, communication style, and energy limits. Therapy may focus on reducing burnout, improving relationships, building self-advocacy skills, and developing practical strategies that work with your brain — not against it.

Couples Counseling Center
Counselor/Therapist, Ph.D., LPC
When one or both partners are neurodiverse, building relationship connection requires different skills than traditional couples therapy. I help couples bridge communication gaps, navigate sensory and emotional differences, and create relationship agreements that support each partners’ needs. When you honor who each of you authentically are, you'll create a relationship that uniquely fits you.

Sarah Wolfer
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
So much of the advice autistic people receive is about how to seem less autistic; how to make eye contact, how to mask discomfort, how to perform neurotypicality convincingly enough to get through the day. Therapy shouldn't be more of that. I'm Sarah, a neurodivergent therapist myself who works with autistic adults who are tired of contorting themselves to fit a world that rarely fits back. My approach is somatic and body-informed, which means we're not putting all the pressure on verbal processing. We work with your whole nervous system, at your pace, in a way that actually respects how you're wired. KAP can also be a powerful option for autistic clients carrying deep burnout, identity-based pain, or trauma that's been hard to reach. Telehealth in WA, ID, and FL.

Maria Jose Rendon
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I work with autistic adults, including many who were diagnosed later in life after years of masking traits well enough to go unnoticed, often at real cost to their energy and sense of self. My approach is neurodiversity-affirming: autism is a difference to understand and work with, not a deficit to correct. I'm a neurotypical clinician, which I mention deliberately, since I bring structured clinical training rather than shared lived experience, an approach some clients specifically prefer. Many of my autistic clients are also professionals or scientists managing workplace demands, or first-generation Latinx adults navigating autism alongside cultural identity. Sessions are goal-oriented so you always know what we're working on together.

Annie Harton Kassell
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
For a lot of autistic adults, the diagnosis is the first time life makes sense from the inside. The cost of masking all day. The social rules everyone else seemed handed at birth. The tiredness that never had an obvious reason. I work with late-diagnosed adults on letting the mask down, understanding how you are genuinely wired, and making peace with the years spent performing a version of yourself that was never going to last.

Tricia Osterberger
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LCAS
I work with folks who want to understand how neurodivergence impacts their experience of the world and the grief that may be associated. We look at what it means to try to navigate a world that wasn't built for you and how you may have been misdiagnosed in the past.

Levana Slabodnick
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LISW-S, LCSW
Whether or not you've been diagnosed with Autism, you've probably felt different your entire life. Struggling to fit in and regulate your emotions means that you've developed a mask to cover your true self. Being Autistic means that you are extra sensitive in every sense of the word, in a world that feels like the volume is turned all the way up. I offer Neurodivergent therapy aimed at helping you learn to take off your mask and becoming your authentic self. This involves learning about your strengths and challenges and how to navigate tricky situations without compromising your needs for the comfort of others.

Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, MDiv, PhD, LMFT-S
Autism: Navigating the Neuro-Affirming Path
For Individuals and Neuro-Distinct Couples
In a world designed for neurotypical sensory and social processing, living on the spectrum often feels like an endless exercise in translation. My practice provides a space where Autism is not viewed as a deficit to be cured, but a unique neuro-type to be understood and accommodated. Whether you are navigating your own late-diagnosed discovery or are part of a couple where one partner is neurodivergent, we work to build a life that honors your nervous system.
For the Individual: From Masking to Authenticity
Chronic "masking"—the effort to appear neurotypical—is one of the primary drivers of burnout. Together, we work to identify your unique sensory and cognitive profile so you can move from surviving to thriving.
Managing Overwhelm: We identify the specific environmental and social triggers that lead to sensory overwhelms before they escalate.
Melt Downs & Shut Downs: We develop compassionate strategies for the moments when the nervous system becomes overloaded. Whether it’s an externalized melt down or an internalized shut down, we focus on safety and recovery rather than shame.
Energy Accounting: Learning how to budget your "social and cognitive spoons" to prevent the deep exhaustion of autistic burnout.
For the Couple: Bridging the Neuro-Distinct Gap
When one partner is neurotypical and the other is autistic, the "relational system" can often fall into cycles of misunderstanding. I help couples move past the "double empathy problem" and build a shared language.
Decoding the Shut Down: Helping the neurotypical partner understand that a shut down is not a withdrawal of love, but a physiological need for regulation.
Communication Systems: Moving away from "hinting" and toward direct, explicit communication that reduces anxiety for both partners.
Shared Regulation: Creating a "sensory-safe" home environment where both partners' needs are respected without one person's comfort coming at the cost of the other's.
A Systems-Rooted Approach
Leveraging my background in Systems Theory and Attachment, I look at how the external world—workplaces, family expectations, and social constructs—impacts your neurodivergent experience. You aren't "broken"; you are a different kind of "wired," and you deserve a relationship and a life that reflects that.

Catherine Bitney
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
I have a passion for helping neurodivergent folks, helping them unmask and manage their social world and relationships - so that they can live more fulfilling, authentic, and happy lives. Early research on autism did not account for neurodivergence in those assigned female at birth, as well as racial and ethnic minorities. Many of my clients went undiagnosed until adulthood and are finally starting to understand some of the upsetting social interactions they've experienced, the rejection from peers, and the consistent messaging from society that something is inherently wrong with them.

Christina Duncan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Growing up with a brother with autism, I bring both professional training and lived experience to my work, with a deep understanding of the individuality, strengths, and challenges that can come with being neurodivergent. I support clients with emotional regulation, social navigation, identity development, and managing stress or overwhelm, while honoring each person’s unique communication style and needs. I also work with families and siblings, helping build understanding, connection, and supportive dynamics at home. My approach is flexible, respectful, and tailored to help each person feel seen, valued, and empowered.
