Katelynn Jones
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, ASDCS, CCTP, CTMH, Certified Brain Coach, SSP and RRP Provider, Registered Clinical Supervisor
If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with Autism or is experiencing symptoms similar to autism, please consider therapy. Often individuals on the Spectrum struggle with anxiety, depression, communication, and have low self esteem/self worth. I help individuals understand the reasons they are struggling and to stop blaming themselves. It is possible to understand how you are interpreting information, successfully manage distressing situations, and develop a way to communicate effectively with those around you.

Levana Slabodnick
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LISW-S, LCSW
Whether or not you've been diagnosed with Autism, you've probably felt different your entire life. Struggling to fit in and regulate your emotions means that you've developed a mask to cover your true self. Being Autistic means that you are extra sensitive in every sense of the word, in a world that feels like the volume is turned all the way up. I offer Neurodivergent therapy aimed at helping you learn to take off your mask and becoming your authentic self. This involves learning about your strengths and challenges and how to navigate tricky situations without compromising your needs for the comfort of others.
