You may be seeking help because you feel stuck, or maybe because life feels out of control. You may feel pulled between conflicting emotions and struggling to figure out how you really feel or what you really want. Therapy is where you can grow comfortable with the different parts of yourself—even those that may feel the hardest to face. Understanding those parts can help us build compassion, connection, and the strength to face life’s challenges.

Adaptation, growth, and healing can happen within the right therapeutic alliance. For some of us, pursuing therapy is just acknowledging that we are capable of more joy and more ease on this human journey. I have worked with a wide range of presenting concerns, ages, and abilities. I take pride in my creativity with customizing therapy tools to fit clients who learn best in less traditional ways.

Dr. Welterlin and her team of colleagues are pleased to provide outstanding, neurodiverse-affirming care with specialization in autistic women, girls and gender diverse individuals (but we also work with boys and men!). Our work is driven by a deep respect for inclusion and neurodiversity. We treat our clients as equal partners and equal citizens. We do not deny services or a diagnosis due to reasons such as having: neurotypical traits that aren’t “traditionally” autistic, a strong desire to socialize, been told by another professional or most in your life that you could do not have autism.

Accepting New Clients. When "Life" happens, it happens fast and sometimes in a way that throws what we had planned for ourselves off course. But, just because we get off track, that does not mean we are lost forever. Life was made to have highs and lows, but successfully navigating through those highs and lows will be our greatest accomplishment. My greatest passion is working with those that are having difficulty navigating these very highs and lows of life. We are not always able to change our physical environment or the "Life" things that happen, BUT we can change the way we look at these events. And THAT is why I am here.

**Practice has immediate openings for new clients**. When was the last time you checked in with you? I’m not talking about your children, partner, your friends, your colleagues, but I’m talking about you. How often do you evaluate your current place in life, then set realistic goals to accomplish life’s milestones? Are you constantly thinking that there has to be more, but you just need help trying to figure it all out? I am here to assist you. My job is to help move you away from the things that no longer work, perhaps they never did, and towards a more ideal way of being.
