Shannon Gorres
Life Coach, MDiv, MA
Many of my clients who have autism appreciate my ability to communicate clearly, give options, and not take it personally if you disagree with me. I'm calm and transparent, here to appreciate and support how each person navigates their world. Many of my clients with autism appreciate my invitations to get to know their feelings- without pressure to have any certain type of experience.

Rebekah Ruth Jones, Ed.D., LPC
Licensed Professional Counselor, Ed.D., LPC
A later in life autism diagnosis often comes with wave after wave of realization of what was missed and why things are the way they are. I can help you learn to surf those waves instead of getting bludgeoned against the rocks by them.

Phillip McCulley
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, CSAT
I work with autistic adults and neurodivergent clients who want support navigating relationships, communication, intimacy, and sexuality in ways that feel authentic and sustainable. Many autistic people experience relationships and desire differently than what is often portrayed as typical, and therapy can be a place to explore these differences without pressure to change who you are.
In our work together, we focus on understanding your unique communication style, sensory needs, emotional experiences, and relationship expectations. This may include support around dating, long term partnerships, consent, boundaries, sexual desire, or navigating mismatched needs within a relationship. I help clients develop clearer communication strategies and greater self understanding so relationships feel less confusing and more rewarding.
I also provide a supportive space to explore sexuality and identity without judgment. This can include working through shame, anxiety, or uncertainty related to sexual expression, orientation, or gender, as well as understanding how sensory sensitivity, routine, or emotional regulation can impact intimacy. The goal is not to force a specific outcome, but to help you build relationships and a sex life that align with your values, comfort, and needs.

Dr. Sharese Martin
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, LPC
I use research-based techniques to help clients improve social communication and social interaction across multiple contexts. My education, work experience, and personal experiences with autism spectrum disorder qualify me to teach coping skills for restricted and repetitive patterns of behavior. Culturally-responsive and developmentally appropriate practices are utilized to help clients achieve treatment goals.

I've supported a lot of people on the spectrum with emotional regulation, and learning what they want and how to get it. I'm amazed by their creativity and honesty. My goal is to support you get unstuck, get clarity when confused, and grounded when overwhelmed.
