Vasti Cedeño, who holds qualifications including MA, MSW, LCSW, and ADHD-CCSP, is the founding therapist at LifeWork Counseling in New Jersey. As a neurodivergent, first-generation, plus-size Latina, she is deeply committed to promoting radical acceptance. Currently, her practice is exclusively open to adults aged 25 years or older, focusing on issues related to ADHD, physical embodiment/self-esteem, trauma, and anxiety disorders. Many of her clients seek help in nurturing self-love and repairing their negative, harmful relationships with their bodies.
My practice prioritizes supporting neurodivergent individuals, especially around ADHD—whether diagnosed, questioning, or identified through positive ASRS assessments. I'm dedicated to guiding adult spouses/partners of those with ADHD, navigating the unique challenges and dynamics of these relationships with empathy and understanding.
Navigating life's complexities, especially with ADHD or as a partner to someone who has it, can feel isolating. My practice offers a compassionate space to explore and grow. If you're seeking understanding and support tailored to your unique journey, I invite you to reach out. Together, we can move towards healing and acceptance. Adults 25+ and older only.
