Shawna Damiani
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Maybe you just received your diagnosis. Maybe you've suspected for years and are still working up the courage to explore it. Maybe someone you trust finally said the word out loud and something in you went quiet — not because it was wrong, but because it finally felt right.
Receiving an autism diagnosis as an adult can be a lot of things at once. Relieving. Grieving. Clarifying. Disorienting. Many adults spent decades masking — carefully studying social rules, performing neurotypicality, exhausting themselves just to seem "normal" — without ever having the language for what they were doing or why it was so tiring.
At Love Let Out, we work with autistic adults who are navigating that process of understanding themselves, often for the first time. We are neurodiversity-affirming, which means we don't approach autism as something to be treated or trained away. We approach it as a different way of experiencing the world — one that comes with real strengths, real challenges, and a lifetime of experiences worth making sense of.
We can help you explore your identity, process the complicated feelings that often come with late diagnosis, work through burnout, navigate relationships and communication, and begin to unmask in spaces where it's safe to do so.
You've spent a long time adapting to everyone else. This is a place where you don't have to.

Robin Britt
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-S
Living and loving on the autism spectrum is not a problem to be fixed — but it does come with real challenges that deserve real support.
As a parent of a child on the spectrum, I bring something to this work that goes beyond clinical training: I know what it feels like to navigate a world that wasn't designed with your family in mind. I've celebrated the breakthroughs, sat with the hard days, and learned that every person on the spectrum has their own remarkable way of experiencing the world. That understanding shapes every session.
I work with individuals across the spectrum — from children and teens learning to navigate social situations and big emotions, to adults who may have gone years without answers and are finally making sense of their own story. I also work with parents who are exhausted, overwhelmed, and looking for a therapist who truly gets it.
Common areas we address include emotional regulation, anxiety (which frequently co-occurs with autism), communication and relationships, sensory challenges, and the identity questions that often come with late or recent diagnosis. Whether you're newly diagnosed, raising a child on the spectrum, or simply looking for a therapist who won't make you explain yourself from scratch — you've found a safe place here.

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.

Michael J. Salas
Counselor/Therapist, PsyD, LPC-S, LCDC, CSAT, CST
If you're autistic or exploring whether you might be, you may have spent a lot of your life feeling misunderstood, overwhelmed, or pressured to fit into environments that weren’t made for you. Whether you’ve been formally diagnosed or you’re just starting to connect the dots, I offer a space where you don’t have to mask or explain yourself.
I work with adults on the spectrum to better understand their needs, manage sensory and emotional overload, and navigate relationships in a way that feels authentic. We can also look at how past experiences—especially those shaped by being different in a world that expects sameness—may still be affecting your self-esteem or mental health.
You don’t need to change who you are. Therapy is about supporting you in building a life that actually works for your brain, your body, and your values.

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.

Clark Thompson, PsyD, MA
Psychologist, PsyD, MA
I provide thorough virtual autism evaluations for children, adolescents, and adults throughout PSYPACT participating states, helping individuals and families gain clarity about autism spectrum disorders through comprehensive neuropsychological testing. My autism assessments examine not only the core features of autism—including social communication, repetitive behaviors, and sensory processing—but also evaluate cognitive abilities, executive functioning, and commonly co-occurring conditions to provide a complete understanding of each individual's unique neurodevelopmental profile. Drawing from years of experience with autism spectrum disorders across diverse clinical settings, I create detailed assessment reports that guide families toward appropriate interventions, educational supports, and services while celebrating the individual strengths and abilities that often accompany autism.
