Heather Champion
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, Florida Supreme Court Certified Family Court Mediator
As an undergrad I had an opportunity to take a class with and work in the lab of Dr. Ted Carr. He was one of the leading researchers in the 80's and 90's int he field of Autism and Aspergers syndrome. One of my biggest regrets is not getting the letter of recommendation he offered me. In any event, I have been well trained in the foundations of ABA therapy and how to apply it to diverse populations.

Heart Bonds Counseling
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Many adults discover later in life that they may be on the autism spectrum — often after years of feeling different, misunderstood, socially exhausted, or chronically overwhelmed. A late diagnosis (or even just exploring the possibility) can bring both relief and a lot of complex emotions. We provide a respectful, neurodiversity-affirming space to process that experience while helping you better understand your strengths, sensory needs, communication style, and energy limits. Therapy may focus on reducing burnout, improving relationships, building self-advocacy skills, and developing practical strategies that work with your brain — not against it.

Christina Duncan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Growing up with a brother with autism, I bring both professional training and lived experience to my work, with a deep understanding of the individuality, strengths, and challenges that can come with being neurodivergent. I support clients with emotional regulation, social navigation, identity development, and managing stress or overwhelm, while honoring each person’s unique communication style and needs.
