Autism
Cindy Sholes
Therapist, Ph.D. Neuroscience, Medical Hypnotherapy
I've completed specialized training through CAMFT on supporting autistic clients. I work with autistic teens and adults who already have a diagnosis or who identify as autistic. I don't provide diagnostic assessments, and I'm happy to refer you to a qualified professional if you're seeking one. My approach is neurodiversity-affirming: the goal isn't to change who you are. rREST can help ease the anxiety, overwhelm and stress responses that often come from living in a world not designed for your nervous system, so you can feel more at ease being yourself. 🦋

Jennifer Canu
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Living in a neuro-typical world as a neuro-divergent individual contributes to unique challenges, such as masking, increased risk for exploitation and increased mental health symptoms such as anxiety and depression. I support neuro-divergent clients recognize, access and embrace their strengths, empowering one to self-advocate and find success in various life areas.

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.
