Eric Tivers (ADHD reWired)
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, ADHD-CCSP
I started working with kids on the autism spectrum right after college and loved it so much that I went back to grad school with a focus on autism. Over time, I found my niche working with people who have high IQs and lower support needs — those who often fly under the radar but still struggle in ways others don’t see. When my son was diagnosed with autism, I shifted my professional focus entirely to ADHD for a while, but the through line has always been neurodivergence.
Early in my career, I recognized parts of myself in the people I worked with — the sensory sensitivities, challenges with transitions, and social dynamics that didn’t always make sense. At the time, I assumed those were just quirks or ADHD-related traits. It wasn’t until recently, when I started taking a closer look, that I realized I’m autistic, too. Being AuDHD has deepened my understanding of what it means to live authentically as a neurodivergent adult and has brought a new level of empathy and insight to my work with clients.

Danielle Keys at Headway
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, M.S.ED, LCPC
I work with teens and adults who are diagnosed or undiagnosed and needing assistance with coping with the challenges of what is considered "normal" and trying to build their version of success in the world. What works for the general population may not be effective for neurodivergent individuals. We work to build organizational, routine, and coping skill tools to minimize distress and accept individual differences as they are. Building skills in self-advocacy, school, work, and family boundaries is crucial.

Rosemarie Manfredi
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I am a neuropsychologist with extensive expertise in the evaluation and diagnosis of autism spectrum disorders throughout the lifespan. In my practice, I am able to do diagnostic evaluations for ages 2.5 and up, including into adulthood. I offer a range of evaluation types depending on age and needs, from a diagnostic evaluation designed to determine whether someone has an ASD to a very comprehensive evaluation that assesses the impact of ASD (and any other comorbid difficulties) on learning, development, and behavioral functioning. By providing an in-depth understanding of the person with an ASD, I can make specific and individualized recommendations for educational, career, and treatment settings. I also offer career assessments and guidance for individuals with ASDs in order to help identify careers that match their interests, skills, and abilities.

Jonathan Schmalz
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P
Many autistic adults struggle to have connections with others in ways they would like. Moreover, social situations may feel downright confusing and anxiety-provoking and intimate relationships may seem impossible. In the professional sphere, you may struggle to keep steady employment, often finding that your ways of communicating with co-workers and bosses make it hard to feel you belong or that your talents are appreciated. I take an affirming, autism-informed approach in helping autistic adults to better appreciate themselves and thrive in their relationships and life pursuits.

Catherine Quiring
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LMHC, LPC, LCPC
I have level 1 Autism (high masking, non-stereotypical/female presentation) and understand what it feels like to live as a neurodivergent person in a neurotypical world. I love so many things about being autistic, but it is harder to get by in this world with our limitations. I help autistic folx work with their limitations, and find ways to support yourself rather than trying to mask or change yourself. I have a host of neuroaffirming supports in addition to 1:1 therapy, such as a sensory support workbook, poetic exploration of what if feels like to be neurodivergent, assessments, and a neurosparkly hangout.
