Autism
Sarah Wolfer
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
So much of the advice autistic people receive is about how to seem less autistic; how to make eye contact, how to mask discomfort, how to perform neurotypicality convincingly enough to get through the day. Therapy shouldn't be more of that. I'm Sarah, a neurodivergent therapist myself who works with autistic adults who are tired of contorting themselves to fit a world that rarely fits back. My approach is somatic and body-informed, which means we're not putting all the pressure on verbal processing. We work with your whole nervous system, at your pace, in a way that actually respects how you're wired. KAP can also be a powerful option for autistic clients carrying deep burnout, identity-based pain, or trauma that's been hard to reach. Telehealth in WA, ID, and FL.
