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.
