Rosemarie Manfredi
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I am a neuropsychologist with extensive expertise in the evaluation and diagnosis of autism spectrum disorders throughout the lifespan. In my practice, I am able to do diagnostic evaluations for ages 2.5 and up, including into adulthood. I offer a range of evaluation types depending on age and needs, from a diagnostic evaluation designed to determine whether someone has an ASD to a very comprehensive evaluation that assesses the impact of ASD (and any other comorbid difficulties) on learning, development, and behavioral functioning. By providing an in-depth understanding of the person with an ASD, I can make specific and individualized recommendations for educational, career, and treatment settings. I also offer career assessments and guidance for individuals with ASDs in order to help identify careers that match their interests, skills, and abilities.

Autism
Centers for Counseling and Wellness, Int'l
Psychologist, PhD
Living with autism or Asperger's means experiencing the world in a way that others do not always understand. The sensory overload, the social exhaustion, the feeling of constantly trying to translate yourself for a world that was not quite built with you in mind. It can be isolating. And it can be exhausting in ways that are hard to put into words.
At CCW International, we see you. We understand that neurodivergent clients need more than a one-size-fits-all approach. They need a therapist who is curious, patient, and genuinely interested in understanding how your mind works, not trying to fit you into a mold.
We work with autistic adults and those with Asperger's profiles to navigate relationships, communication, sensory challenges, anxiety, and the emotional weight that often comes with feeling different. Our goal is never to change who you are. It is to help you thrive as exactly who you are, with the right tools, the right support, and a space where you never have to mask.
You belong here.

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.
