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.

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.

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.
