Dana Wiesenfeld
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, PA-C
Feeling like the world was not built for you? Maybe it wasn’t but shouldn’t it be? Why are we supposed to acclimate to neurotypical people if we are the ones with challenges? What if we did not have to put on our normal person mask everyday? What if someone told you, being you is actually a good thing? That is what we do!

Laura DeAngelo
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW
I have an adult child on the autism spectrum who also is a transgender female and has epilepsy and ADHD (this information shared with her permission). I received intensive parent training when she was younger and after this method showed great success with improving my daughter's social and emotional regulation and quality of life, I trained in this method as well (Relationship Development Intervention (RDI)) and worked as an RDI certified consultant for a number of years before I pursued my MSW and LCSW/LICSW. The methods I learned from my RDI training are very helpful to parents of autistic children as well as to autistic adults looking to feel more comfortable with themselves and in interacting with society - in short, to improve overall quality of life for autistic individuals and families.
