Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
As we increasingly better understand the range of the autism spectrum, including the various ways that ASD can manifest and be masked, work with ASD clients will work on goals that clients self-determine and at a pace that is affirming and encouraging. Neurodiversity is affirmed in my practice with ASD clients and therapeutic goals will always be collaborative and self-paced.

Sara Gillooly
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LPCC
As a queer and AuDHD therapist myself, I have lived experience in learning how to live a life that feels more authentic and grounded. I specialize in working with queer, highly sensitive, and neurodivergent adults struggling with the impacts of trauma as well as feelings of overwhelm, anxiety, depression, burnout, relationship challenges, difficult family relationships, and identity exploration. Ultimately, I'm not interested in "treating" your neurodivergence but I will support you wholeheartedly in navigating the complexities that come with it.

Stephanie Miodus
Psychologist, PhD, NCSP
I have extensive expertise working with children, adolescents, and adults diagnosed with autism. My approach includes comprehensive autism evaluations using evidence-based tools like the ADOS-2, while also incorporating assessment tools designed to address the unique diagnostic needs of girls, women, and adults. I have specialized training in the Early Start Denver Model (ESDM)—a developmental, play-based behavioral therapy for young children with autism—and hold PEERS® certification from the UCLA PEERS® Clinic, focusing on social skills training. In addition to diagnostic assessments, I provide personalized therapy to address co-occurring mental health challenges commonly experienced by autistic individuals. I collaborate closely with parents to build strategies for improving skills and addressing challenges at home. My expertise in autism-focused therapy and the mental health needs of autistic individuals has been recognized at national platforms, including presentations at the American Psychological Association Convention and Kennedy Krieger Institute.
