Neurodivergence
A lot of our clients come to us after years of feeling like they were doing something wrong — too sensitive, too much, not enough, always a little out of step with everyone else. Sometimes that feeling has a name: autism, ADHD, AuDHD, or another form of neurodivergence that was never identified, especially for people who were taught to mask it well.
We work with neurodivergent kids, teens, and adults — including those still exploring whether they're neurodivergent and those who've known for years but never had support that actually fit how their brain works.
Signs you might be neurodivergent and never knew it
You've spent years "performing" in social situations and feel exhausted afterward
Sensory input — noise, light, texture, crowds — feels like more than other people seem to notice
You've been called "too sensitive," "too much," or "spacey" your whole life
Things that seem to come easily to everyone else take real effort for you
You cycle through periods of pushing hard and then completely burning out
You've wondered, quietly, if there's a reason things have always felt harder than they should
If any of this sounds familiar, you're not alone — and you don't need a diagnosis in hand to start exploring it with us.
What therapy for neurodivergence looks like here
We don't approach neurodivergence as something to fix. Our work is affirming first: helping you understand your own wiring, build on your strengths, and develop tools that actually work with how your brain operates — not against it.
That can look like:
Support processing a late-in-life diagnosis (or the process of realizing you might be neurodivergent, with or without a formal label)
Referral support if you're seeking a formal autism or ADHD evaluation elsewhere
Sessions structured around what actually helps you — including sensory accommodations, non-linear conversation, and pacing that fits you
Support for the anxiety, masking fatigue, and relationship patterns that often show up alongside neurodivergence
Common questions
Can adults get diagnosed with autism or ADHD?
Yes, and we're happy to point you toward evaluation resources if you're interested in pursuing a formal diagnosis. Many of our clients are identified later in life, often after years of feeling like something didn't quite add up — with or without formal testing, that clarity can be valuable.
Do I need a diagnosis to start therapy?
No. Many clients come to us still exploring whether they're neurodivergent, without any formal diagnosis. Therapy can help you understand your patterns either way.
What's different about how autism shows up in women and girls?
Autism in women is often missed or misdiagnosed because it tends to look different than the traditional (and often male-centered) presentation — more internalized, more masked, and more likely to be mistaken for anxiety, perfectionism, or "just being sensitive."
