Autism therapists in San Luis Obispo, California CA
Jillian Luz
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, ATR
I have experience working with autistic children, teens, and adults. I conceptualize autism under the neurodiversity umbrella and do not view autism itself as something that needs to be "fixed", but rather understood. I strive to support my autistic clients in feeling empowered in how to best support any sensory or social-related issues they may experience. I also support clients in identifying and supporting any anxious and/or depressive symptoms that may be the result of unidentified autism in a neurotypical dominant world.

Stephen B. Lewis Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapist, CHt
My approach to clients with Autism and Asperger's is to discover what their strengths and interests are and to use those as jumping off points to create a hypnotic experience where they feel successful and engaged. I view each client as an individual and not a label, and the more I learn about their unique skills and interests the more I can tailor each session to keep them engaged.
