Psychologist, PsyD
Navigating social situations, communication, and sensory experiences can sometimes feel overwhelming or confusing. Many teens and young adults also feel pressure to “fit in” while trying to stay true to themselves. I provide a supportive space to better understand your experiences, build social and coping skills, and strengthen self-acceptance. Together, we focus on helping you feel more confident, comfortable, and authentic in your daily life.

Practical Psychology, Inc.
Psychologist, Ph.D.
You may have felt out of sync with the crowd—too quiet, too intense, too different. But here, being “different” is not a barrier—it’s your gift. At Dr. Shoup’s practice, you’ll find a place of acceptance, insight, and purpose. We understand how your mind’s unique rhythms, perceptions, and sensitivities shape your life and interactions. Rather than trying to make you fit a mold, we help you lean into your strengths, build bridges in relationships, and discover how being “outside” can be the vantage point from which you lead, connect, and thrive.

Melanie Collins
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPC, LCMHC, Coach
I work with autistic adults, including those who were diagnosed later in life or who have come to recognize autistic traits in themselves without a formal diagnosis. Therapy can provide space to explore masking, relationships, sensory and emotional needs, identity, burnout, communication, and the experience of moving through a world often designed around neurotypical expectations. My approach is neurodiversity-affirming and focused on understanding how your brain works, identifying what genuinely supports you, and building a life that fits you rather than teaching you to appear more neurotypical.

Maria Jose Rendon
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I work with autistic adults, including many who were diagnosed later in life after years of masking traits well enough to go unnoticed, often at real cost to their energy and sense of self. My approach is neurodiversity-affirming: autism is a difference to understand and work with, not a deficit to correct. I'm a neurotypical clinician, which I mention deliberately, since I bring structured clinical training rather than shared lived experience, an approach some clients specifically prefer. Many of my autistic clients are also professionals or scientists managing workplace demands, or first-generation Latinx adults navigating autism alongside cultural identity. Sessions are goal-oriented so you always know what we're working on together.
