Elissa Chazdon
Counselor/Therapist, LMSW, LSW
Raising a neurodivergent child means parenting outside the standard playbook — and it helps enormously when both parents, or both households, are working from the same neuro-affirming page. My groups take a strengths-based, neuro-affirming approach: understanding sensory and regulation needs, communicating in ways that actually land, and building routines and expectations that fit your child rather than asking your child to fit a mold that was never built for them.

I provide a compassionate and affirming environment where we can explore your experiences without judgment. Our sessions focus on fostering self-acceptance, enhancing social communication skills, managing sensory input, and developing robust coping mechanisms for stress and overwhelm.

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.

Practical Psychology, Inc.
Psychologist, Ph.D.
You may have felt out of sync with the crowd—too quiet, too intense, too different. But here, being “different” is not a barrier—it’s your gift. At Dr. Shoup’s practice, you’ll find a place of acceptance, insight, and purpose. We understand how your mind’s unique rhythms, perceptions, and sensitivities shape your life and interactions. Rather than trying to make you fit a mold, we help you lean into your strengths, build bridges in relationships, and discover how being “outside” can be the vantage point from which you lead, connect, and thrive.

Colorado Springs is one of the most militarized cities in the United States, home to Fort Carson, Peterson Space Force Base, Schriever Space Force Base, NORAD, and the United States Air Force Academy — creating exceptional demand for therapists who specialize in military trauma, PTSD, moral injury, and the challenges of military family life. The city also has a large evangelical Christian population and many conservative religious families, making faith-integrated therapy a particularly prominent offering among local practitioners. UCHealth Memorial Hospital provides institutional mental health resources alongside a private practice community serving both the military community and the city's growing civilian population. Colorado Springs' proximity to Denver means some residents access additional specialist care in the larger metro, though the local therapy community has grown substantially in recent years.
