David Houston Murphy
Psychologist, PhD, LP, PSYPACT
I have extensive experience working with clients who are autistic. I work with autistic clients through individual therapy, couples therapy, group therapy, and psychological evaluations. I help clients address adjusting to a neurodivergent diagnosis later in life, unmasking, as well as address autistic burnout, all from a neurodiversity-affirming lens. As an autistic psychologist, I can often share my own experiences and personally relate with my clients. With my PSYPACT license, I am able to provide online psychological evaluations for autism.

Jillian Luz
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, ATR
I have experience working with autistic children, teens, and adults. I conceptualize autism under the neurodiversity umbrella and do not view autism itself as something that needs to be "fixed", but rather understood. I strive to support my autistic clients in feeling empowered in how to best support any sensory or social-related issues they may experience. I also support clients in identifying and supporting any anxious and/or depressive symptoms that may be the result of unidentified autism in a neurotypical dominant world.

I have been certified in evidence-based gold standard assessment tools to evaluate for a clinical diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).

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.
