Navigating life as a high-functioning autistic adult can be both uniquely rewarding and uniquely challenging. You may find yourself excelling in certain areas while silently struggling with others, relationships, executive functioning, social interaction, sensory overload, or masking. I specialize in supporting autistic adults who want a space where they don’t need to "pass" or explain themselves just to be understood. I understand this and most likely you did not suspect that you had autism until adulthood.
I offer ongoing counseling tailored to the specific strengths and challenges of autistic adults, including those diagnosed later in life. Whether you're managing anxiety, burnout, life transitions, or simply looking to better understand yourself, my goal is to help you move forward with clarity and confidence.
In addition to therapy, I provide comprehensive autism assessments using the ADOS-2, often in combination with interviews and clinical measures to ensure a well-rounded, accurate diagnosis. This is especially valuable for adults who may have gone undiagnosed due to being high-masking or misdiagnosed earlier in life.
