Ren Lee
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I work with many neurodivergent clients, whether you are formally diagnosed, self-diagnosed, or exploring what it means to have Autism. I am here to work with you to better understand how Autism informs how you navigate the world, how to come up with tools and skills to navigate Autism, and how it impacts your relationships, career, and functioning.
I am here to support you in exploring connections to yourself, your communities, and the world around you. My approach is rooted in liberation, relational, and psychodynamic work through an anti-oppressive lens, and includes modalities such as somatics, narrative therapy, and mindfulness. I am passionate about working with intersectional identities of race, gender, sexuality, and neurodivergence and I find it incredibly fulfilling to continuously build relationships through empathy, curiosity, and compassion.

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.

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.
