Audrey Stempel, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
Many children who are neurodiverse struggle with socialization, organization, and emotional regulation. They see the world differently and find it difficult to navigate the neurotypical world. These problems adversely affect their self esteem. They need to learn how to cope with their emotions and how to accept themselves as unique and special individuals while paying attention to their "growing edges."

Jonathan Schmalz
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P
Many autistic adults struggle to have connections with others in ways they would like. Moreover, social situations may feel downright confusing and anxiety-provoking and intimate relationships may seem impossible. In the professional sphere, you may struggle to keep steady employment, often finding that your ways of communicating with co-workers and bosses make it hard to feel you belong or that your talents are appreciated. I take an affirming, autism-informed approach in helping autistic adults to better appreciate themselves and thrive in their relationships and life pursuits.

Couples Counseling Center
Counselor/Therapist, Ph.D., LPC
When one or both partners are neurodiverse, building relationship connection requires different skills than traditional couples therapy. I help couples bridge communication gaps, navigate sensory and emotional differences, and create relationship agreements that support each partners’ needs. When you honor who each of you authentically are, you'll create a relationship that uniquely fits you.
