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.

If you or a loved one is seeking specialized care for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), South Psychology is here to support you. Our center is dedicated to understanding and addressing the unique needs of individuals with ASD. Here’s what you can expect:
Comprehensive Assessment: Our experienced psychologists conduct thorough assessments to understand your specific challenges, strengths, and developmental history. We use evidence-based tools and interviews to evaluate communication skills, social interactions, sensory sensitivities, and behavioral patterns. Early diagnosis is crucial, as it allows for timely intervention and personalized treatment planning.
Personalized Treatment Plans: At South Psychology, we believe in a holistic approach. Our interdisciplinary team collaborates to create tailored treatment plans. We work closely with educators, speech therapists, and occupational therapists to address various aspects of ASD. Individualized interventions focus on communication, social skills, behavior management, and adaptive functioning.
Support for Families: ASD affects not only the individual but also their family members. We provide guidance, education, and emotional support. Our team helps families navigate challenges, develop coping strategies, and build a supportive environment at home. We empower families to advocate for their loved ones and access community resources.
Lifelong Learning: ASD is a lifelong journey. We offer ongoing support, workshops, and educational materials to enhance understanding and skills. Whether your child is newly diagnosed or transitioning to adulthood, we’re committed to being a reliable partner.
