If all the world is a stage, do you feel like the only one who didn't get a copy of the script? Did you grow up feeling there was something fundamentally different or 'wrong' about you, something that you had to hide from the world? Do you feel you are often misunderstood in social situations, that you have to choose your words very carefully or people will misinterpret them? Do certain sounds, tastes, or textures bother you a lot? Have you had the thought 'either autistic people need to stop being so relatable, or I need to see a therapist'?
If you can say 'yes' to any of these questions, or even 'no, because I developed a complex system to avoid those experiences', then you might be able to benefit from working with me. My approach is based in the neurodiversity movement and the work and research of autistic self-advocates, focusing on unmasking, sensory regulation, acceptance, and education.
Many autistic people reach adulthood without a diagnosis, their struggles being hidden by masking or overlooked due to racist and/or sexist biases. Learning about and loving our autistic selves is often the first step towards building a life with less suffering, healthier relationships, and more meaning and joy. Book with me now via my website!
