Hello! My name is Alix, and I am an AuDHD therapist practicing at Venture Counselling Therapy. My job is to help you meet your goals. I have a special interest in adults and teens who are exploring their autistic identity, or anyone identifying as neurodivergent, but I also take allistic clients. I also work with neurotypical parents or partners of neurodivergent people. I am a late-diagnosed autistic and ADHD queer cis woman. I am certified in Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, CBT for Insomnia, and Cognitive Processing Therapy.
My approach is client-centered and eclectic, using strategies from various evidence based models. I believe that each person is the expert on their own life, and my role as a therapist is to help them tap into their own strengths and resources to overcome challenges and achieve their goals.
If you think we could be a good fit contact my office at Venture Counselling Therapy! I am flexible with options for in person or virtual sessions.
Call or Alix Munro now for a free 15 minute consultation - (782) 400-5380

You may notice most of my modalities are related to person-centred therapy. This is the heart of my practice. I believe that individuals are the experts in their own lives and that I am a guide on their journey to wellness - I do not tell clients what to do. I am adamant on using research-backed methods and avoid pseudoscientific approaches. Certified in DBT, CBTi, and CPT.
