Dr. Yanet Vanegas
Psychologist, PsyD
Using evidence-based practices like Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), I collaborate with individuals across the spectrum to address core challenges and enhance adaptive skills. By breaking down complex behaviors into manageable steps, I create structured, personalized behavior plans that align with each person’s unique needs and strengths. Through positive reinforcement and systematic prompting, I help individuals acquire new skills and behaviors while effectively reducing challenging ones. My approach is both compassionate and strategic, ensuring that each person receives the support they need to thrive.

Marcy Miller
Pre-Licensed Professional, Ph.D.
I help the partners of people with high-functioning autism (formerly Asperger's syndrome) gain clarity and more satisfaction in their relationships. Neurodiversity can shape the way people experience communication, connection, and emotional expression. In relationships where one or both partners are on the autism spectrum, these differences can sometimes lead to misunderstandings, frustration, or a sense of disconnection, despite a genuine desire for closeness.
Together, we’ll work to better understand these patterns through a compassionate, non-pathologizing lens. Rather than viewing differences as problems to fix, we’ll explore them as meaningful variations in how people process and express their experiences.
This work may include clarifying communication styles, identifying unmet needs, and developing new ways of connecting that feel more accessible and supportive for both people. The goal is to foster greater mutual understanding, reduce friction, and strengthen the relationship while honoring each person’s way of being.

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!

Adela Stone
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC
I specialize in supporting couples where one or both partners are on the autism spectrum. Communication differences, sensory needs, and social misunderstandings can create painful disconnection, even when love is strong. In therapy, I help partners better understand one another’s experiences, reduce conflict, and build bridges of empathy. My approach is neurodiversity-affirming—I focus on strengths while addressing the unique challenges autism can bring to intimacy, daily life, and relationships.
