Claire Robinson-Scalzi
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LCMHCA, NCC
I welcome neurodivergence of all types! Together, I hope we can create a space where you feel safe enough to release your masks and show up just as you are. I expect this to take time as we get to know each other and learn from each other as we find ways to support you in moving through life and creating the life you want to live.

Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Autism is often misunderstood—especially in adults, and especially in people who have spent years adapting, masking, or being told they’re “too much” or “not enough” at the same time. Many of our clients come in feeling exhausted from trying to navigate social expectations, sensory overwhelm, communication differences, or environments that don’t take their needs into account. At Nour Counseling, we approach autism through a neurodiversity-affirming lens, recognizing that your brain is not the problem—the mismatch between you and your environment often is.
We offer comprehensive autism assessments that result in a detailed report with clear findings and individualized recommendations, including accommodations when appropriate. In therapy, we work with you to better understand your sensory profile, communication style, routines, and capacity—so you can build a life that actually supports you. This might include setting boundaries, reducing burnout, navigating relationships more authentically, or unlearning the pressure to constantly mask. We also name the cultural and systemic factors that shape how autism is perceived and supported, so you’re not left carrying that context alone. Our goal is to help you move through the world with more clarity, self-understanding, and permission to exist as you are.
