Autism and Asperger's
Elana Blumenthal
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I work with many neurodivergent clients of all ages and many with autism and Asperger traits. I am aware of the social and "fitting in" difficulties and how the school system may or may not work with these clients at times. Self-esteem can often be a huge aspect of having a form of autism and it's very important as a therapist to understand what a client is trying to convey and what one is feeling in their own subjective way.

Autism and Asperger's
Stephanie Miodus
Psychologist, PhD, NCSP
I have extensive expertise working with children, adolescents, and adults diagnosed with autism. My approach includes comprehensive autism evaluations using evidence-based tools like the ADOS-2, while also incorporating assessment tools designed to address the unique diagnostic needs of girls, women, and adults. I have specialized training in the Early Start Denver Model (ESDM)—a developmental, play-based behavioral therapy for young children with autism—and hold PEERS® certification from the UCLA PEERS® Clinic, focusing on social skills training. In addition to diagnostic assessments, I provide personalized therapy to address co-occurring mental health challenges commonly experienced by autistic individuals. I collaborate closely with parents to build strategies for improving skills and addressing challenges at home. My expertise in autism-focused therapy and the mental health needs of autistic individuals has been recognized at national platforms, including presentations at the American Psychological Association Convention and Kennedy Krieger Institute.

Autism and Asperger's
Dr. L A McCrae
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCADC, FOT, CCTP, CCTSA
My approach to Autism is deeply personal and neuro-affirming, focusing on the reclamation of self after a lifetime of masking. We create a sensory-safe environment where your unique cognitive geography is celebrated rather than pathologized. Together, we navigate the "unmasking" process to ensure your social and professional lives align with your authentic needs.

Autism and Asperger's
Damon Dodge
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Many adults discover autism later in life, often after years of feeling different without understanding why. Autism affects sensory processing, social communication, and executive function in ways that can be exhausting to mask. I work with autistic adults to develop strategies that honor their neurological differences rather than forcing adaptation to neurotypical expectations. We focus on self-advocacy, sensory accommodation, and building authentic relationships while reducing the emotional toll of constant performance.
