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.

Iris Bowen

My practice primarily serve neurodivergent folks with Autism, ADHD, or AuDHD and I am also a neurodivergent clinician. While I am not able to provide formal diagnostic assessment for autism, I have experience supporting diagnosed and undiagnosed autistic folks with deepening their self-knowledge, improving communication, improving emotional identification + understanding (alexithymia), and finding routines to support self-care. Whether you’re looking for psychoeducation, general emotional processing, or functional strategies to support healthy routines, I would be both happy and honored to support you.

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.

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.

Alanna Preylo
Therapist, LMSW
It's a unique feeling. The deep deep confusion. You feel like your needs are always "too much". Your needs feel "too specific". The pull to follow rules is hard when you also want to feel free to be yourself. Even when you know what to do, it's when, and how??? These are just a few ways Autism impacts us. It's hard to manage when different aspects of ourselves are in conflict. I can help you find YOUR between masking and being Authentic.

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.
