CBT Center
Psychologist, ABPP, A-CBT
Navigating a world that wasn't really designed with you in mind is exhausting. At The CBT Center, we work with autistic adults and teens on the things that matter most to them: managing anxiety, building social confidence, handling transitions, and just feeling a little more at ease day to day. Our approach is warm, collaborative, and adapted to how you actually think and process. No one-size-fits-all here.

Ylenia Martinez
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Autism is not something to “fix”; it is a different way of processing the world that deserves respect, not pathologizing. Drawing on my background as a special education teacher and therapist, I offer a neurodiversity‑affirming space where your sensory needs, communication style, and routines are understood rather than judged. Together, we can work on burnout, masking, and relationship stress while also honoring your strengths, stims, interests, and need for predictability and clear communication.

I also support parents and families in creating environments that foster growth and independence.
