Kim Salinger
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, MBA, MSN, PMHNP, FNP, AHN
Many adults go through life feeling different without fully understanding why. I provide thoughtful, respectful assessments for autism spectrum traits in adults, including those historically described as Asperger’s, with a focus on clarity, self-understanding, and validation. Care is integrative and individualized, with attention to mental health, medical contributors, sensory processing, and nervous system regulation. Ongoing visits focus on support, education, and guidance to help individuals better understand their needs, strengths, and challenges while building a life that feels more sustainable and aligned.

Alyssa Habschmidt
Therapist, AMFT
I specialize in supporting children and teens on the autism spectrum. I understand that they experience and navigate the world in unique ways and are often misunderstood by others. I help them build confidence, strengthen relationships, and better understand their identity. I also work closely with parents to help them connect with and support their children, fostering deeper and more meaningful relationships.
