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.

Dr. Danielle Goodwin
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Dr. Goodwin has worked with people who are diagnosed on the spectrum in both group and individual capacities. I am honored to help individuals diagnosed on the spectrum with finding their talent so they can find their purpose in life. Integral to working with this population is collaboration with school and/or other providers to assist with developing a plan that addresses all of their unique needs.
