Kayzim Suárez-Reyes
Psychologist, PhD
My practice holds a significant, neurodiversity-affirming specialization in supporting individuals on the Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). I understand that autism is a difference in how the brain processes information, not a deficit. I help clients navigate the unique challenges of sensory processing, social communication, and intense special interests, moving beyond masking and toward authentic self-expression. Whether you are seeking a late-in-life diagnosis, or need support managing overwhelm and building meaningful connections, I offer a compassionate, evidence-based approach that respects your unique strengths and needs. I also have close loved ones with high functioning autism!

Brandon Guin
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT
I have been working with Autistic individuals since 2002. I have worked with children as young as 18 months old to adults beyond 65. My passion is working to help Autistic adults improve executive functioning (organizing, planning, completing tasks and goals) and relationships, while decreasing feelings of anxiety and depression.

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.
