Autism
Shay Malone
Pre-Licensed Professional, Ed.S., Resident in Counseling
Autism used to be frequently confused with intellectual disability and many adults with autism were never diagnosed because they could make eye contact, were social, and demonstrated empathy. In reality, a lot of autistic people are highly intelligent. Autism is more accurately understood as differences in communication and understanding social interactions. It may or may not involve special interests or sensory difficulties.

Katelynn Jones
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, ASDCS, CCTP, CTMH, Certified Brain Coach, SSP and RRP Provider, Registered Clinical Supervisor
If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with Autism or is experiencing symptoms similar to autism, please consider therapy. Often individuals on the Spectrum struggle with anxiety, depression, communication, and have low self esteem/self worth. I help individuals understand the reasons they are struggling and to stop blaming themselves. It is possible to understand how you are interpreting information, successfully manage distressing situations, and develop a way to communicate effectively with those around you.
