Kyana Dyaji
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, ADHD-CCSP
There is no 'one size fits all' treatment for individuals with Autism, everyone is unique in their own way. I am a Neurodiversity Aware therapist, and support individuals with autism and/or their families to learn effective strategies to manage the symptoms that interfere with their functioning, intending to improve their overall functioning in otherwise difficult situations.

Harness of Joy Psychotherapy Services
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RCSW EMDRIA Approved Consultant & Credit Provider
Step into a space where you can finally drop the exhausting weight of masking and be fully understood. Navigating a world designed for neurotypical expectations often results in sensory overload, social exhaustion, and deep-seated self-doubt. In alignment with our core values of integrity and growth, we treat neurodivergence as a unique way of processing—never a defect to correct. We work alongside you to process sensory stress, establish healthy boundaries, and honor your natural communication style, empowering you to build a lifestyle that supports your energy and true self.
