Autism and Asperger's
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.

Maria Maddalo
Psychologist, Psy.D., BCBA
I am passionate about the appropriate diagnosis and interventions for individuals with Autism. I provide therapy and evaluations for these individuals across the lifespan. Individuals with Autism are often mistaken for not experiencing emotions, which is unfortunate. These individuals experience anger, frustration, fear, sadness, and loneliness as the rest of us do. It may be expressed differently, or not at all. This can lead to feelings of isolation and often, suicidal ideation or attempts. We can work together to uncover you or your child's unique abilities and focus on them through therapy and/or diagnostic evaluation.
