Connect with Elizabeth J Justice

You’re tired of pretending. You've spent years camouflaging, people-pleasing, and overachieving to survive in a world that wasn't designed for you. You rest just enough to feel human again, only to land back in the same cycle of burnout and overwhelm. Maybe other therapists said you're “too self-aware,” but I see your insight as a strength. You're the expert on yourself. I'm here to help you reconnect with your intuition & shed others’ demands and expectations. This journey is about coming home to yourself, without the “shoulds” or the pressure to conform and finding a path forward.

As a late-diagnosed AuDHDer (autism + ADHD), I blend lived experience with clinical training to create a space where you don’t have to explain/justify your neurodivergence. My approach is deeply relational, centered on trust, attunement, and collaboration. Using your values, strengths, and even your special interests, we’ll build a plan that works for you.

Sick of deep breathing exercises and CBT worksheets that don’t help? It’s time to be seen, heard, and known, beneath the mask. You’ve carried internalized ableism, high expectations, and burnout long enough. If you’re ready to quiet all the noise and tune into who you really are, I’d be honored to walk alongside you. Are you ready to get started?

Unlearning Internalized Ableism

Hosted by

Elizabeth J Justice

The constant pressure to mask, meet impossible standards, and "prove your worth" isn’t just personal—it’s systemic. This group is here to help you unpack the internalized ableism perpetuated by our society and begin reclaiming your identity on your own terms. We’ll dig into: How ableism is woven into social and cultural norms. The toll of masking and the fight to be seen as “acceptable”. Toxic productivity and why your value isn’t tied to your output. Building confidence to advocate for your needs in a system that wasn’t built for us.
