Dr. Ylenia Martinez
Counselor/Therapist, PsyD
Autism is not something to “fix”; it is a different way of processing the world that deserves respect, not pathologizing. Drawing on my background as a special education teacher and therapist, I offer a neurodiversity‑affirming space where your sensory needs, communication style, and routines are understood rather than judged. Together, we can work on burnout, masking, and relationship stress while also honoring your strengths, stims, interests, and need for predictability and clear communication.

Julien Moe
Hypnotherapist, Diploma in Clinical and Applied Hypnosis, Diploma in Life Coaching
Autism and Aspergers can be treated by my Dicit hypnotherapy. Patients with this disorder are getting resilient in no time in my care. While autism cannot be "cured" or "treated" in the sense of making it go away, hypnotherapy is increasingly recognized as a valuable supplemental tool for managing specific symptoms and challenges associated with the condition.

John Perry
Counselor/Therapist, Resident in Counseling, MA, NCC
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) can be effectively applied in therapy sessions for individuals with autism to address cognitive and behavioral challenges. I often focus on identifying and modifying maladaptive thought patterns, fostering emotional regulation, and improving social skills. By emphasizing cognitive restructuring and behavioral interventions, CBT offers a structured and goal-oriented approach to help individuals with autism navigate social interactions and manage stressors more effectively.
