Beth Janis
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I enjoy working with neurodivergent individuals (e.g., ADHD, Autism, SPD) and their families to better understand themselves, the strengths and uniqueness of their differently-wired brains, and the areas in which they feel stuck. I utilize a neurodiversity-affirming lens that emphasizes seeing the whole person and that integrates their preferences related to sensory processing, communication and relationships, and special interests. I value collaborating with other service providers and joining with the individual and family at any stage of the diagnostic and self-discovery process.

Sophia Pressley
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
Austim and Aspergers are pervasive aspects of one's life journey. The journey can be a challenge, but stability is possible. I will teach skills and techniques that will make adjustments to behaviors that prevent the individual from having a productive journey.

Heather Watson-Perez
Psychologist, PhD
I work with individuals on the autism spectrum to support social understanding, emotional regulation, and daily functioning. My approach is strengths-based, focusing on building skills while respecting each person’s unique way of thinking and experiencing the world. I also support parents and families in creating environments that foster growth and independence.

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.
