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.

Averill Hovey
Art Therapist, MA, MA, LPC-S, ATR-BC, EMDR
I work with autistic and neurodivergent children, teens, and adults from a strengths-based, affirming perspective. Rather than viewing autism as something that needs to be “fixed,” I focus on understanding each person’s individual experience, including sensory needs, communication and relationship patterns, emotional regulation, identity, and the challenges that can come from navigating a world that may not always fit the way they experience it.
My approach incorporates art therapy, play and experiential work, somatic awareness, mindfulness, and Gestalt-informed practices, offering alternatives to therapy that relies solely on verbal processing. Together, we can explore anxiety, overwhelm, relationships, self-understanding, life transitions, and strategies for creating a life that feels more manageable and authentic.
I also support parents and families in better understanding and connecting with their neurodivergent family members while honoring each person’s individuality, autonomy, and strengths.
