Julien Moe
Hypnotherapist, Diploma in Clinical and Applied Hypnosis, Diploma in Life Coaching
Autism and Aspergers can be treated by my Dicit hypnotherapy. Patients with this disorder are getting resilient in no time in my care. While autism cannot be "cured" or "treated" in the sense of making it go away, hypnotherapy is increasingly recognized as a valuable supplemental tool for managing specific symptoms and challenges associated with the condition.

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.

Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
As we increasingly better understand the range of the autism spectrum, including the various ways that ASD can manifest and be masked, work with ASD clients will work on goals that clients self-determine and at a pace that is affirming and encouraging. Neurodiversity is affirmed in my practice with ASD clients and therapeutic goals will always be collaborative and self-paced.

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.

Shawna Stillwell
Marriage and Family Therapist, IMFT-S
I offer a low-pressure, compassionate, therapy experience that many autistic clients find refreshing compared to more directive or fast-paced approaches. My work centers on you understanding yourself more deeply, building self-compassion, and navigating a world that doesn't always accommodate the way your mind works.

Liberation Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
I am autistic and I work with many autistic and AuDHD clients. In our work together, I focus on helping you understand your nervous system, sensory needs, communication style, burnout, masking, and relationships. Many autistic people have spent their lives feeling misunderstood or like they are “too much” or “not enough” at the same time. Therapy with me is a space where you don’t have to mask or pretend to be someone you’re not. Together we work on building a life that actually works for your brain and your body, not one that forces you to constantly push past your limits.
