Autism and Asperger's
Pamela Angel
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
I am passionate about moving beyond a "disorder" framework to focus on neurodiversity-affirming care—helping clients navigate a world not built for them, manage anxiety, reduce burnout from masking, and build self-advocacy skills. My goal is to provide tailored, affirming support that empowers autistic children and adults to embrace their strengths and live authentically.

Psychologist, Ph.D.
I provide a neuro-affirming space for teens and adults to explore their identity, unpack the effects of masking, manage burnout, and develop sustainable routines. Whether you are seeking a late-in-life diagnosis, support for neuro-divergent relationships, or coping strategies for sensory overload, I am here to help you live a more authentic and fulfilling life.

Autism and Asperger's
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.
8 Years Experience

Cincinnati sits at the intersection of the Midwest and Appalachia, and therapists here frequently address addiction, economic stress, and intergenerational trauma rooted in the region's opioid crisis. The city has a strong Catholic and faith community, and many therapists offer spiritually sensitive approaches alongside evidence-based care. University of Cincinnati Medical Center and Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center provide institutional mental health resources, complemented by a growing network of private practitioners across Hyde Park, Mount Lookout, and Oakley. Cincinnati's position as a bi-state metro also means therapists often serve clients from across the Kentucky border.
