Iris Bowen
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MBA
My practice primarily serve neurodivergent folks with Autism, ADHD, or AuDHD and I am also a neurodivergent clinician. While I am not able to provide formal diagnostic assessment for autism, I have experience supporting diagnosed and undiagnosed autistic folks with deepening their self-knowledge, improving communication, improving emotional identification + understanding (alexithymia), and finding routines to support self-care. Whether you’re looking for psychoeducation, general emotional processing, or functional strategies to support healthy routines, I would be both happy and honored to support you.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
Many of the adults I work with are thoughtful, capable professionals and students, often in detail‑oriented or technical roles, who have spent years feeling “different” without having language for why. You may be wondering if you are autistic, have a recent diagnosis, or have known for a long time but never had support in making sense of it. From the outside, you may meet or exceed expectations and keep up with work or school. Inside, it can feel like constant effort: managing sensory overload, masking to fit in, replaying conversations, or needing significant time alone to recover from social or emotional strain.
Many adults I see describe a lifelong sense of being out of step with others, feeling misunderstood, or being told they are “too sensitive,” “too intense,” or “too much.” You may have built a life that works on paper but still feels exhausting to maintain. Masking, perfectionism, and trying to meet unspoken social rules can take a real toll on your nervous system and sense of self.
In our work, we approach autism and other forms of neurodivergence through a neurodiversity‑affirming, trauma‑informed lens. We look at how your brain and body naturally process the world, how past experiences have shaped your coping strategies, and what helps you feel more regulated and authentic. The focus is not on changing who you are, but on understanding your wiring, reducing the internal cost of masking, and creating a life that supports your nervous system rather than straining it. This is core to my practice, and it’s work I care about deeply.
