Stephanie Brumfield
Therapist, LCSW
I work with a lot of autistic and AuDHD adults, many of them diagnosed later in life. I’m late-diagnosed AuDHD myself. For most of my clients, understanding they’re autistic changes how they see themselves and their whole life, and it often feels a lot like a spiritual awakening. There’s grief for the years spent masking and wondering what was wrong with you. Slowly, you start to understand who you are and unmask.
I’m not a coping-skills therapist, and I don’t do assessments. Our work is depth work. We look at the parts of you that learned to mask, the burnout that comes from years of over-functioning, and the sensitivity and intensity that were called “too much.” Astrology often helps people see their wiring in a new way. For many of my clients, their own diagnosis, or their child’s, is what opens the door to this work.

Dan Safavi
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC-22108
I work with autistic and neurodivergent adults who want support with stress, relationships, emotional overwhelm, identity, masking, and navigating a world that may not always fit the way they think or experience things. My approach is respectful, collaborative, and focused on understanding your needs rather than trying to make you more "normal."
