Autism
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.

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.
