Autism
Sara Gillooly
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LPCC
As a queer and AuDHD therapist myself, I have lived experience in learning how to live a life that feels more authentic and grounded. I specialize in working with queer, highly sensitive, and neurodivergent adults struggling with the impacts of trauma as well as feelings of overwhelm, anxiety, depression, burnout, relationship challenges, difficult family relationships, and identity exploration. Ultimately, I'm not interested in "treating" your neurodivergence but I will support you wholeheartedly in navigating the complexities that come with it.

Jaclyn Epstein-Calvert
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
I work with autistic individuals and families in a neurodiversity-affirming way that recognizes autism as a different way of experiencing and processing the world rather than something that needs to be “fixed.” Many autistic adults and parents seek support around sensory overwhelm, emotional regulation, relationships, burnout, and navigating environments that are not always designed with neurodivergent needs in mind.
My approach focuses on understanding each person’s nervous system, communication style, and strengths while building practical strategies that support regulation, self-advocacy, and meaningful connection. I also support parents of autistic children in better understanding their child’s developmental and sensory needs, helping families reduce stress and create environments where children can feel safe, understood, and supported to thrive.
