Autism
Humanistic Therapy NW
Therapist, LCSW, LICSW, ACSW, CSWA
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). Treatment focuses on emotional regulation, sensory awareness, communication, and coping skills—tailored to neurodivergent experiences rather than forcing neurotypical norms.

Autism
Brian Jones
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MEd, LMHC, LPC
If you have autism or think you might have autism, you may find that communication is hard with neurotypical people, including previous therapists. While I don't have autism (that I know of), I have worked with many clients with autism, and have received training in applying Internal Family Systems therapy for working with neurodivergent clients. I offer a therapeutic approach that is client-led and course-correcting, in case we ever have any miscommunication. Usually the work I do with autistic clients revolves around processing the ways their neurodivergence has affected their lives and relationships, and to notice the masks they put on to get by. Ultimately, what I care most about is you developing a more positive and trusting relationship with yourself.

Dr. Danielle Goodwin
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Dr. Goodwin has worked with people who are diagnosed on the spectrum in both group and individual capacities. I am honored to help individuals diagnosed on the spectrum with finding their talent so they can find their purpose in life. Integral to working with this population is collaboration with school and/or other providers to assist with developing a plan that addresses all of their unique needs.

Matthew Wolfe
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, MHP
Autism spectrum has really gone through a renaissance recently in terms of our understanding of it beyond white, middle-class, boys. I bring lived experience and an understanding of intersectionality to explore ways to be an ally to your neurology. Being autistic isn't the problem, living in an ablest society is.

Autism
Catherine Bitney
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
I have a passion for helping neurodivergent folks, helping them unmask and manage their social world and relationships - so that they can live more fulfilling, authentic, and happy lives. Early research on autism did not account for neurodivergence in those assigned female at birth, as well as racial and ethnic minorities. Many of my clients went undiagnosed until adulthood and are finally starting to understand some of the upsetting social interactions they've experienced, the rejection from peers, and the consistent messaging from society that something is inherently wrong with them.
