Neurodivergent Adults
Neuro-affirming care that focuses on transforming shame into self-acceptance through curiosity, openness, and psychoeducation. Here we focus on celebrating the authentic you and work towards strategies that actually help rather than enforcing neurotypical standards.
How My Practice Supports Neurodivergent Adults
You’ve spent your whole life being critiqued, told what to do, and how to do it. You’ve faced stigmas, stereotypes, and external voices that likely attempted to silence your own. At my practice, I value your voice and let that guide me in creating a plan tailored to your unique self. I provide adapted coping strategies designed for neurodivergent individuals that take into account sensory needs, overstimulation, and differences in executive functioning. I name the stigmas and narratives that have led to masking, shame, and feelings of inadequacy, and we work to restore autonomy, power, and self-love. Here’s what you can expect in the therapy room:
Naming and exploring the impact of stigmas and stereotypes.
Psychoeducation on neurodivergent brains and how your differences are a reflection of natural, biological variation.
Strengths-identification and identity work.
Understanding the complexities of masking, how it can protect, how it can hurt, and how you can learn to navigate it in a way that feels most authentic to you.
Learning how to communicate your needs from a space of self-acceptance and confidence.
More effective identification of obstacles impacting your daily living and strategies for finding neuro-affirming solutions that lend to confidence rather than shame.
