Autism and Asperger's
Sydney Fowler
Counselor/Therapist, MT-BC, LPC
I work with individuals on the autism spectrum, including those previously diagnosed with Asperger’s, who may experience challenges with social interaction, sensory sensitivities, and emotional regulation. Autism presents differently for each person, and I tailor therapy to meet individual communication styles, strengths, and needs. Treatment focuses on building coping strategies, increasing self-understanding, and supporting emotional well-being in daily life. I provide a structured and supportive environment where clients can develop skills and feel more confident navigating their experiences.

Autism and Asperger's
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.

Autism and Asperger's
Brian Jones
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MEd, LMHC, LPC
If you have autism or think you might have autism, you may find that communication is hard with neurotypical people, including previous therapists. While I don't have autism (that I know of), I have worked with many clients with autism, and have received training in applying Internal Family Systems therapy for working with neurodivergent clients. I offer a therapeutic approach that is client-led and course-correcting, in case we ever have any miscommunication. Usually the work I do with autistic clients revolves around processing the ways their neurodivergence has affected their lives and relationships, and to notice the masks they put on to get by. Ultimately, what I care most about is you developing a more positive and trusting relationship with yourself.

Autism and Asperger's
Beth Janis
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I enjoy working with neurodivergent individuals (e.g., ADHD, Autism, SPD) and their families to better understand themselves, the strengths and uniqueness of their differently-wired brains, and the areas in which they feel stuck. I utilize a neurodiversity-affirming lens that emphasizes seeing the whole person and that integrates their preferences related to sensory processing, communication and relationships, and special interests. I value collaborating with other service providers and joining with the individual and family at any stage of the diagnostic and self-discovery process.

I am especially passionate about working with women (or AFAB individuals) who received (or suspect) autism diagnoses in adulthood. I am a neurodivergent-affirming therapist.

Brownsville is one of the southernmost cities in the United States and sits directly on the US-Mexico border — sharing the border with Matamoros, Tamaulipas — with a population that is over 90% Hispanic and where Spanish is the dominant language of daily life, making bilingual, bicultural therapy not a specialty but the baseline expectation for meaningful access to care. The city's poverty rate is among the highest in the United States, and therapists here frequently address the compounding effects of economic stress, immigration-related family separation, and the chronic anxiety of border community life. Valley Baptist Medical Center and the UT Health RGV system provide institutional mental health resources for the Rio Grande Valley region. The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley's psychology and counseling programs supply clinical training to a region that remains significantly underserved relative to its mental health needs.
