Autism and Asperger's
Jocelyn Jarman
Counselor/Therapist, LMSW
There's a particular kind of tired that comes from spending your whole life adapting to a world that doesn't adapt back. At Deserts Bloom Therapy, that exhaustion is understood — and taken seriously. Autism is not a deficit to be corrected here. It's a different neurological experience that deserves support without the pressure to conform. For children, play therapy and sand tray offer gentle, natural ways to process emotion and build connection. For teens and adults, sessions center on identity, self-advocacy, and learning to trust your own needs. You don't need to earn your place by being easier to understand. Come as you are.

Autism and Asperger's
Dr. Amanda Malak
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist
I offer psychological assessment to clarify diagnoses for autism or autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and I specialize in providing support to adolescents and adults. Part of this work is done through a contract at Axis for Autism who accepts Medicaid in Arizona. I can complete completely virtual assessments to people around the country, however. Therapeutically, my approach involves helping people unmask as much as possible when it is safe to reduce long-term negative health impacts of masking. Otherwise, life skills training can support people in learning the unspoken rule of social communication in the neurotypical world to develop and maintain relationships personally and professionally when masking is less safe. I work closely with individuals, families, and other professionals to create strategies that foster independence, social skills, emotional regulation, and overall well-being. Through evidence-based therapies and a compassionate, individualized approach, I help people with autism navigate their unique experiences and reach their full potential.

Urim Recovery, LLC
Therapist, Certified Trauma Therapist, LCSW
While there are many effective ways to support families or adult autistics, it is rare that the family as a whole receives care. My approach is directed, practical and designed to help all my clients implement insights and gains attained inside the session into daily life. I draw on years of specialized and intensive training designed to restore connection and repair attachment wounds to increase closeness among all family members. Feel heard and seen and learn to work with your child to gain better clarity and confidence regarding what will work for YOUR family. If you have received a late diagnosis as a result, our work together will focus on your finding meaning and integration with your diagnosis. Autism can be experienced on so many levels--as identity, culture, with pride or also be perceived as a burden on account of misunderstandings, myths and outright discrimination and prejudice. I offer support to families and/or individuals to better understand how to wrestle with what autism means and how to integrate it into your family or personal identity notwithstanding how it might be perceived culturally, medically or otherwise.
