Clark Thompson, PsyD, MA
Psychologist, PsyD, MA
I provide thorough virtual autism evaluations for children, adolescents, and adults throughout PSYPACT participating states, helping individuals and families gain clarity about autism spectrum disorders through comprehensive neuropsychological testing. My autism assessments examine not only the core features of autism—including social communication, repetitive behaviors, and sensory processing—but also evaluate cognitive abilities, executive functioning, and commonly co-occurring conditions to provide a complete understanding of each individual's unique neurodevelopmental profile. Drawing from years of experience with autism spectrum disorders across diverse clinical settings, I create detailed assessment reports that guide families toward appropriate interventions, educational supports, and services while celebrating the individual strengths and abilities that often accompany autism.

Melanie Collins
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPC, LCMHC, Coach
I work with autistic adults, including those who were diagnosed later in life or who have come to recognize autistic traits in themselves without a formal diagnosis. Therapy can provide space to explore masking, relationships, sensory and emotional needs, identity, burnout, communication, and the experience of moving through a world often designed around neurotypical expectations. My approach is neurodiversity-affirming and focused on understanding how your brain works, identifying what genuinely supports you, and building a life that fits you rather than teaching you to appear more neurotypical.
