Deanna is not currently accepting new clients through Atlanta Therapeutic Collective.
Have important people in your life treated you like you were broken, too needy, or not enough? Have you crafted masks to hide your "brokenness" and lost your sense of self in these masks? Have you overworked yourself trying to suppress your needs to the point of burnout and felt unable to physically move? For a population known for our rigidity, I have observed us neurodivergent folk to be some of the most adaptable people I've met, often to our own detriment. This needs to change.
As an autistic, ADHD, and neurodiversity-affirming therapist who specializes in DBT, I am here to help you balance the opposing forces in your life. Yes, we did not create the systemic issues that disable us, AND we are the ones who must work towards change. I help my clients identify and honor their needs as much as they would honor anyone else's.
I know what it's like for your needs to be treated like a burden, and I will believe, understand, and respect your needs. Instead of suppressing what your body is telling you, you will learn to recognize and respect your needs and boundaries and build community with those who respect you. Schedule a session when you're ready to build the life you want.
