Autism
Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness
Psychologist, PhD, JD
Not all therapists provide evidence-based therapies, and not all therapists who claim to provide CBT are specially trained in this approach. The Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness team consists of doctoral-level clinicians who are highly trained experts in cognitive behavioral therapies.
We are also trained in tailoring your treatment to your individual needs, so you can be sure you are receiving highly individualized care while also benefiting from the techniques that are proven to work.

Autism
Sarah Wolfer
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
So much of the advice autistic people receive is about how to seem less autistic; how to make eye contact, how to mask discomfort, how to perform neurotypicality convincingly enough to get through the day. Therapy shouldn't be more of that. I'm Sarah, a neurodivergent therapist myself who works with autistic adults who are tired of contorting themselves to fit a world that rarely fits back. My approach is somatic and body-informed, which means we're not putting all the pressure on verbal processing. We work with your whole nervous system, at your pace, in a way that actually respects how you're wired. KAP can also be a powerful option for autistic clients carrying deep burnout, identity-based pain, or trauma that's been hard to reach. Telehealth in WA, ID, and FL.

Dr. Janelle Louis
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, ND, PMHNP-BC
I support individuals on the autism spectrum with respect and practical strategies for everyday challenges. Care may include emotional regulation tools, social communication support, sensory-friendly coping skills, anxiety management, and family therapy, when necessary. My goal is to help you thrive in your own unique way.
10 Years Experience
Online in Tri-Cities, WA (Online Only)
The Tri-Cities — Kennewick, Pasco, and Richland in southeastern Washington — form a fast-growing metro shaped by the Hanford nuclear site's cleanup workforce, agricultural and food-processing industries, and a large and growing Latino community. Mental health needs range from the occupational stress of Hanford's technical workforce to farmworker family pressures and the gaps in Spanish-language care that come with rapid demographic change. Local providers and telehealth carry most of the load, as the metro sits a long drive from Washington's larger therapy markets.
