Autism
Shira Collings

I specialize in neurodiversity affirming care, which includes therapy that embraces ADHD, autism, and other neurotypes. I am passionate about supporting autistic folks in embracing and advocating for themselves, and in navigating a world that is often inaccessible to neurodivergent people.

We provide affirming therapy for autistic adults, including those who identify with Asperger’s, using Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (MB-CBT).

I provide support for individuals with autism spectrum disorder, including Asperger’s, through a strengths-based, skill-building approach that promotes independence, emotional regulation, and social understanding. My work focuses on helping clients develop practical life skills, improve communication and relationship abilities, and navigate daily challenges with greater confidence and self-awareness.

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.
