Autism and Asperger's
Alyxx S Berg
Licensed Professional Counselor, LMHC, CDP, MHP
Neurodivergence is very misunderstood. There is nothing WRONG with having a brain that works differently from "other people." Social awkwardness, hyperfixation, melt downs....these are part of the experience that we (yup, I'm on the spectrum...) have to learn to work with or around. I know that people have pushed you aside or not given you the tools you need. Let's work on that. I also have a great deal of respect for people who do the best they can in a world that seems so foreign to them. Come, fellow traveler...let's see where this can go!

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.

I embrace the unique world of individuals with Autism and Asperger's with profound empathy and respect. My approach is rooted in understanding the distinct experiences and perspectives that come with these conditions. Through a blend of specialized therapies and compassionate support, I strive to connect deeply with each person, helping them to navigate their social and emotional landscapes. It's a journey of celebrating their unique strengths, fostering self-acceptance, and empowering them to find their own voice in a world that often overlooks the beauty in difference. Together, we uncover pathways to meaningful connections, self-discovery, and a sense of belonging.
