I have experience with teens and adults on the autism spectrum, as well as AuDHDers (dually diagnosed with ADHD and Autism). My style is affirming and validating by nature, and I provide a space where we can explore your experiences with masking, feeling misunderstood, and the joys of being on the autism spectrum. I also offer adult ADHD/Autism assessments for those seeking a formal diagnosis or simply more clarity on their neurodivergent profile.

TREATMENT AND TOOLS FOR TRAUMA
Licensed Psychoanalyst, PH.D., IN PSYCHOANALYSIS AND NEUROSCIENCE, CERTIFIED PSYCHOANALYST, PSY.A, & LICENSED PSYCHOANALYST
My practice will diagnose and treat the 5 variations of autism including Asperger's Syndrome, Rett Syndrome, Childhood Disintegrative Disorder, Kanner's Syndrome, and Pervasive Developmental Disorder. I believe these problems are primarily a result of problems in the brain. The brain is not working normally, and hence neither is the mind. My treatment involves mind/brain approaches. You are welcome to call my office at 661-478-0667 for an evaluation.

Growth and Change Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
All mental health problems are rooted in the break down in our relationships. The biggest struggle for people on the autistic spectrum is the struggle of relational intelligence, yearning to connect and yet lacking the ability or relational intelligence to know how to connect. We partner with parents and their children to strengthen the relational bounds and support the family in becoming the reference point for your children to grow socially and emotionally.

Autism and Asperger's
Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
As we increasingly better understand the range of the autism spectrum, including the various ways that ASD can manifest and be masked, work with ASD clients will work on goals that clients self-determine and at a pace that is affirming and encouraging. Neurodiversity is affirmed in my practice with ASD clients and therapeutic goals will always be collaborative and self-paced.

Online in Huntington Beach, CA California (Online Only)
Huntington Beach — 'Surf City USA' — cultivates a strong outdoor and athletic identity that creates particular mental health dynamics around body image, performance anxiety, and the psychological costs of a lifestyle culture that prizes youth and physical capability. The city's predominantly White, affluent coastal character contrasts with pockets of economic precarity and a substance use landscape connected to its beach culture and proximity to the broader Orange County recovery community. Hoag Hospital provides institutional mental health resources alongside a well-established private therapy community serving Huntington Beach and the surrounding South Orange County coastal corridor. The city's proximity to both Los Angeles and the Orange County recovery ecosystem means therapists here frequently work at the intersection of addiction, identity, and the particular stresses of competitive coastal California life.
