Tricia Osterberger
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LCAS
I work with folks who want to understand how neurodivergence impacts their experience of the world and the grief that may be associated. We look at what it means to try to navigate a world that wasn't built for you and how you may have been misdiagnosed in the past.

Peter C. Jackson, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD
Navigating a neurotypical world when you're on the Autism Spectrum (including Asperger's Syndrome) can present unique hurdles. 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. Together, we'll strengthen your capacity for connection and empower you to leverage your distinct perspective to build a fulfilling life that honors your authentic individuality.

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.
