Practical Psychology, Inc.
Psychologist, Ph.D.
You may have felt out of sync with the crowd—too quiet, too intense, too different. But here, being “different” is not a barrier—it’s your gift. At Dr. Shoup’s practice, you’ll find a place of acceptance, insight, and purpose. We understand how your mind’s unique rhythms, perceptions, and sensitivities shape your life and interactions. Rather than trying to make you fit a mold, we help you lean into your strengths, build bridges in relationships, and discover how being “outside” can be the vantage point from which you lead, connect, and thrive.

Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
As we increasingly better understand the range of the autism spectrum, including the various ways that ASD can manifest and be masked, work with ASD clients will work on goals that clients self-determine and at a pace that is affirming and encouraging. Neurodiversity is affirmed in my practice with ASD clients and therapeutic goals will always be collaborative and self-paced.
