Autism and Asperger's
Adela Stone
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC
I specialize in supporting couples where one or both partners are on the autism spectrum. Communication differences, sensory needs, and social misunderstandings can create painful disconnection, even when love is strong. In therapy, I help partners better understand one another’s experiences, reduce conflict, and build bridges of empathy. My approach is neurodiversity-affirming—I focus on strengths while addressing the unique challenges autism can bring to intimacy, daily life, and relationships.

Autism and Asperger's
Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
As we increasingly better understand the range of the autism spectrum, including the various ways that ASD can manifest and be masked, work with ASD clients will work on goals that clients self-determine and at a pace that is affirming and encouraging. Neurodiversity is affirmed in my practice with ASD clients and therapeutic goals will always be collaborative and self-paced.

Autism and Asperger's
Stephanie Brumfield
Therapist, LCSW
In my therapeutic approach, autism is embraced as a profound spiritual journey towards awakening to one's authentic self and the process of unmasking. This perspective honors the unique way autistic individuals experience the world, focusing on the deep self-discovery that comes from navigating life with an innate depth of feeling, heightened sensitivity, and a distinct way of processing experiences. By viewing autism through this lens, we celebrate the strengths, creativity, and insights that being autistic brings, shifting away from pathologizing to understanding autism as an integral part of one's identity and spiritual path.
The core of our work together is to empower autistic individuals to live authentically, leveraging their unique gifts to lead a life of fulfillment and connection. This journey involves developing strategies to manage sensory sensitivities, enhance communication, and foster meaningful relationships, all while reducing feelings of overwhelm and self-criticism. Central to this process is the unmasking of one’s true identity, shedding societal expectations and labels to reveal the authentic self beneath.
Seeing autism as a spiritual journey of awakening and unmasking allows us to support individuals in embracing their neurodiversity as a source of healing, strength, and profound personal growth. Together, we explore the richness of the autistic experience, fostering a deep sense of belonging, self-acceptance, and joy in the journey towards self-discovery and spiritual fulfillment. This approach not only affirms the value and beauty of the autistic way of being but also highlights the importance of celebrating each individual's journey towards embracing their authentic self.
