Janie Venturina
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Some of the best work I do happens with autistic teens who need nothing explained to them about the diagnosis and a great deal of help with everything around it. They are bright, usually in general education classes, and they are lonely. Friendships have gone wrong in ways nobody walked them through. They mask all day at school and come home with nothing left, and by high school that exhaustion has often turned into anxiety or low mood. I do not work on making a teen seem less autistic. We work on the isolation, the self-criticism, and the social situations they choose to take on, at a pace that respects how much energy each one costs.

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.

Dan Safavi
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC-22108
I work with autistic and neurodivergent adults who want support with stress, relationships, emotional overwhelm, identity, masking, and navigating a world that may not always fit the way they think or experience things. My approach is respectful, collaborative, and focused on understanding your needs rather than trying to make you more "normal."
