Autism and Asperger's
Tricia Osterberger
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LCAS
I work with folks who want to understand how neurodivergence impacts their experience of the world and the grief that may be associated. We look at what it means to try to navigate a world that wasn't built for you and how you may have been misdiagnosed in the past.

Autism and Asperger's
Sarayu Meraki
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NARM Master Therapist
Autism recognition can bring relief, grief, anger, clarity, and confusion all at once, especially if it happens after you've spent decades of your life not knowing. Therapy that respects and works with autistic traits and functioning offers a place to slow down and listen differently — to your nervous system, your needs, your relational patterns, and the parts of you that learned to disappear in order to stay connected or safe. Therapy on the spectrum is not about fixing anything. It's about helping you understand the cost of masking, reconnecting with your agency, and building a more trusting relationship with yourself, including the autistic self you may have spent years misunderstanding, hiding, or trying to manage.

Autism and Asperger's
Catherine Quiring
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LMHC, LPC, LCPC
I have level 1 Autism (high masking, non-stereotypical/female presentation) and understand what it feels like to live as a neurodivergent person in a neurotypical world. I love so many things about being autistic, but it is harder to get by in this world with our limitations. I help autistic folx work with their limitations, and find ways to support yourself rather than trying to mask or change yourself. I have a host of neuroaffirming supports in addition to 1:1 therapy, such as a sensory support workbook, poetic exploration of what if feels like to be neurodivergent, assessments, and a neurosparkly hangout.
