Autism
Molly Toomey
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I work with autistic and AuDHD folks to help them navigate daily functioning (from sensory issues to social and cognitive difficulties), relationships, identity questions, emotional and practical needs, and more. I'm neurodivergent myself, and I personally understand the realities of navigating life with ADHD—the impact it can have on your self-esteem, confidence, relationships, family, work, school, and so much more. I use my decade of experience supporting autistic and AuDHD folks as a clinician and social worker, my professional training, and my personal lived experiences to help you move from surviving to thriving as an autistic adult.

Autism
Dr. Amanda Malak
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist
I offer psychological assessment to clarify diagnoses for autism or autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and I specialize in providing support to adolescents and adults. Part of this work is done through a contract at Axis for Autism who accepts Medicaid in Arizona. I can complete completely virtual assessments to people around the country, however. Therapeutically, my approach involves helping people unmask as much as possible when it is safe to reduce long-term negative health impacts of masking. Otherwise, life skills training can support people in learning the unspoken rule of social communication in the neurotypical world to develop and maintain relationships personally and professionally when masking is less safe. I work closely with individuals, families, and other professionals to create strategies that foster independence, social skills, emotional regulation, and overall well-being. Through evidence-based therapies and a compassionate, individualized approach, I help people with autism navigate their unique experiences and reach their full potential.

Autism
David Houston Murphy
Psychologist, PhD, LP, PSYPACT
I have extensive experience working with clients who are autistic. I work with autistic clients through individual therapy, couples therapy, group therapy, and psychological evaluations. I help clients address adjusting to a neurodivergent diagnosis later in life, unmasking, as well as address autistic burnout, all from a neurodiversity-affirming lens. As an autistic psychologist, I can often share my own experiences and personally relate with my clients. With my PSYPACT license, I am able to provide online psychological evaluations for autism.

Autism
Jonathan Schmalz
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P
Many autistic adults struggle to have connections with others in ways they would like. Moreover, social situations may feel downright confusing and anxiety-provoking and intimate relationships may seem impossible. In the professional sphere, you may struggle to keep steady employment, often finding that your ways of communicating with co-workers and bosses make it hard to feel you belong or that your talents are appreciated. I take an affirming, autism-informed approach in helping autistic adults to better appreciate themselves and thrive in their relationships and life pursuits.
