Autism and Asperger's
Jillian Luz
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, ATR
I have experience working with autistic children, teens, and adults. I conceptualize autism under the neurodiversity umbrella and do not view autism itself as something that needs to be "fixed", but rather understood. I strive to support my autistic clients in feeling empowered in how to best support any sensory or social-related issues they may experience. I also support clients in identifying and supporting any anxious and/or depressive symptoms that may be the result of unidentified autism in a neurotypical dominant world.

Autism and Asperger's
Christine Clark, PsyD
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
For the past 10 years, I have worked as a school psychologist and have experience working with individuals on the autism spectrum. I like to take a “hands-on“ approach to problem-solving, role-playing through social situations, and building a “tool kit“ of coping skills and techniques that can be used when interacting with others and facing life’s challenges.

Autism and Asperger's
Christina Duncan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Growing up with a brother with autism, I bring both professional training and lived experience to my work, with a deep understanding of the individuality, strengths, and challenges that can come with being neurodivergent. I support clients with emotional regulation, social navigation, identity development, and managing stress or overwhelm, while honoring each person’s unique communication style and needs. I also work with families and siblings, helping build understanding, connection, and supportive dynamics at home. My approach is flexible, respectful, and tailored to help each person feel seen, valued, and empowered.
