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.

Maria Jose Rendon
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I work with autistic adults, including many who were diagnosed later in life after years of masking traits well enough to go unnoticed, often at real cost to their energy and sense of self. My approach is neurodiversity-affirming: autism is a difference to understand and work with, not a deficit to correct. I'm a neurotypical clinician, which I mention deliberately, since I bring structured clinical training rather than shared lived experience, an approach some clients specifically prefer. Many of my autistic clients are also professionals or scientists managing workplace demands, or first-generation Latinx adults navigating autism alongside cultural identity. Sessions are goal-oriented so you always know what we're working on together.

Jessica Anderson, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD
Navigating social situations, communication, and sensory experiences can sometimes feel overwhelming or confusing. Many teens and young adults also feel pressure to “fit in” while trying to stay true to themselves.

Together, we focus on helping you feel more confident, comfortable, and authentic in your daily life.

Manchester is New Hampshire's largest city and a former textile mill hub on the Merrimack River that has been significantly shaped by one of the most severe opioid crises of any city in the northeast—Manchester has repeatedly ranked among the US cities hardest hit by fentanyl and opioid overdoses, and substance use treatment, harm reduction, and recovery support are central to the local mental health landscape. The city has a significant immigrant and refugee population, including large communities from Africa and Central America, creating demand for multilingual and culturally competent mental health services. Catholic Medical Center and Elliot Health System provide behavioral health services, and Southern New Hampshire University has its main campus in the city. Common therapy concerns include substance use and recovery, opioid-related grief and family trauma, immigration and refugee stress, and the economic and community pressures of a post-industrial city navigating a sustained public health crisis.
