Eve Palmatier
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
For folks who are on the autism spectrum to thrive, its important that they're supported in understanding and celebrating the particular ways their brains function. How someone experiences the sensory facets of our world, the ways they process and categorize information, and what experiences are soothing and fulfilling need to be respected and understood. When you are able to embrace the particular ways you engage with the world, and learn what lifestyle allows you to thrive--you may find a reduction in burnout and anxiety. It is important to me that my clients feel celebrated for who they are, and know that I'm not approaching being on the Spectrum as an inherent flaw.
