Heartstone Guidance Center is a group of neurodivergent therapists offering neurodiversity affirming, LGBTQIA-affirming, and culturally aware therapy services. We have autistic, ADHD, and otherwise neurodivergent therapists who offer authenticity and a space where you will be seen, heard, and respected as the authority and expert in your life. We are the alternative to the world that tells you that you need to be neurotypical or normal to fit in and be accepted. We offer therapy to help you understand and embrace your true identity, find compassion for yourself, and develop coping strategies for living in a stressful world.
As neurodivergent therapists, we can offer you lived experience and a safe space where you can enter therapy as yourself unmasked and unashamed. We have years of experience offering children, teens, adults, and families nonjudgemental support. We specialize in Neurodivergency - Autism, ADHD, OCD, LGBTQIA support, Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, etc.
We try to take the stress out of therapy. Our team will make insurance and scheduling easy as we can for you. We are offering online and in-person therapy at our downtown Grand Rapids office. Online and In-Person service availability varies by the therapist. We promise to celebrate and honor all neurotypes, genders, ethnicities, sexual orientations & sizes.
