Autism therapists in North Vancouver, British Columbia BC, Canada CA

Autism and Asperger's can be helped through the use of non-invasive Neurofeedback that helps other forms of therapeutic modalities be more effective.  

Neurodivergent people often have unique needs in counselling because of messages throughout their lives saying that they don't fit within their environments. Counselling can support these folks to find community, experience a more consistent sense of self-worth, and build a life that fits for them.  

I work hands on with Autistic and Asperger's in a high school setting. I understand this disorder well, and can help you with your teen or your self as an adult seeking better relationships, better work and more.  

I define myself as a “neurodiversity affirming therapist” and feel absolutely honoured to work with neurodiverse individuals and couples. This means I understand and work with autism, ADHD and other neurodiverse groups through the lens of neuroscience. Autism is associated with differences in the brain which result in a divergence from neurotypical standards, in terms of how brains filter and make sense of information. I endeavour to help clients shed misplaced humiliation and a sense of failure by becoming conscious of and removing the notion that ‘typical’ traits are superior. It is the neurodiverse individuals in our society that move humanity along.  

At MindFit, we tailor mental health programs for anxiety, OCD, low mood, tics, emotion regulation etc. to individuals with autism. We also provide education about what is means to be neurodivergent, what it looks like, and how it can present differently in males and females. We are passionate about educating others about how being neurodivergent allies can benefit us all.
