Autism
Catherine Bitney
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
I have a passion for helping neurodivergent folks, helping them unmask and manage their social world and relationships - so that they can live more fulfilling, authentic, and happy lives. Early research on autism did not account for neurodivergence in those assigned female at birth, as well as racial and ethnic minorities. Many of my clients went undiagnosed until adulthood and are finally starting to understand some of the upsetting social interactions they've experienced, the rejection from peers, and the consistent messaging from society that something is inherently wrong with them.

Annie Harton Kassell
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
For a lot of autistic adults, the diagnosis is the first time life makes sense from the inside. The cost of masking all day. The social rules everyone else seemed handed at birth. The tiredness that never had an obvious reason. I work with late-diagnosed adults on letting the mask down, understanding how you are genuinely wired, and making peace with the years spent performing a version of yourself that was never going to last.

Levana Slabodnick
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LISW-S, LCSW
Whether or not you've been diagnosed with Autism, you've probably felt different your entire life. Struggling to fit in and regulate your emotions means that you've developed a mask to cover your true self. Being Autistic means that you are extra sensitive in every sense of the word, in a world that feels like the volume is turned all the way up. I offer Neurodivergent therapy aimed at helping you learn to take off your mask and becoming your authentic self. This involves learning about your strengths and challenges and how to navigate tricky situations without compromising your needs for the comfort of others.

Dorothy Brown
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I have seen people on the spectrum for 30 years. I've run a group for parents of people on the spectrum. Each person on the spectrum has different needs. Some people want to be more social and some do not. I respect what ever their goals are and work toward positive change that brings their life more fullfilling.
