Autism
Jonathan Schmalz
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P
Many autistic adults struggle to have connections with others in ways they would like. Moreover, social situations may feel downright confusing and anxiety-provoking and intimate relationships may seem impossible. In the professional sphere, you may struggle to keep steady employment, often finding that your ways of communicating with co-workers and bosses make it hard to feel you belong or that your talents are appreciated. I take an affirming, autism-informed approach in helping autistic adults to better appreciate themselves and thrive in their relationships and life pursuits.

Elemental Self Institute
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
All the clinicians at ESI are neurodivergent-affirming and some of the clinicians have lived experience of being diagnosed and navigating the world as a neurodivergent person. We particularly work with late-diagnosed adults rediscovering themselves and trying to figure out managing burnout, emotional regulation, socialization, and work options.

Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness
Psychologist, PhD, JD
Not all therapists provide evidence-based therapies, and not all therapists who claim to provide CBT are specially trained in this approach. The Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness team consists of doctoral-level clinicians who are highly trained experts in cognitive behavioral therapies.
We are also trained in tailoring your treatment to your individual needs, so you can be sure you are receiving highly individualized care while also benefiting from the techniques that are proven to work.

High Point is the self-proclaimed Furniture Capital of the World, hosting the High Point Market twice annually—the world's largest home furnishings trade show—and is part of the Piedmont Triad region alongside Greensboro and Winston-Salem, with an economy anchored by manufacturing, trade, and logistics that has undergone significant transition. The city has a large African-American population and a growing Latino community tied to manufacturing and service industries, and the mental health landscape reflects economic pressures and workforce transitions as traditional manufacturing employment has changed. High Point University's growth has added a college-town dimension to the city's character, and a private therapy sector serves both the professional and working-class communities. Common therapy concerns include economic stress from manufacturing sector change, racial identity and community belonging, anxiety, depression, and the challenges of accessing mental health care in a mid-size Piedmont city navigating deindustrialization.
