Neurodiversity Assessments
Step into a welcoming and supportive space with our Therapeutic Neuro-Divergent Affirming Assessments for autism and ADHD, designed for late adolescents and adults (ages 16 and up). We're here to walk alongside you as you explore your unique experiences.
We truly believe that neurodiversity is simply part of what makes us all human. Our approach centers on celebrating your individual strengths, acknowledging your challenges, and understanding your distinct perspective. Instead of focusing on what sets you apart as a deficit, we honor those differences. Every person who comes to us is met with respect, care, and understanding. We hope you’ll find our assessment process empowering, helping you gain deeper self-understanding and encouraging growth at every step.
We take a holistic look at all the things that shape your daily life—from sensory processing and executive functioning to your social and emotional world. Most importantly, we listen closely to what matters to you.
Our greatest hope is that you leave your assessment experience feeling recognized, informed, and empowered to embrace your neurodiversity. We’re dedicated to building an environment where everyone feels accepted and affirmed—and we’re passionate about fostering greater understanding and inclusion in both our practice and the wider community.
We offer a variety of assessment options to fit your needs:

Licensed Professional Counselor and
Certified Neuro Diversity Assessment Provider
I am so pleased to finally be adding this service to our practice. As a '“neuro-spicy” person myself, I have always had to find my own strategies or work-arounds to function well in academic and professional settings. The more I learned about my specific areas of strengths and challenges, the more able I became to maximize my skills and the kinder I was to myself. Understanding how to leverage my learning and processing styles helped me grow creatively, personally and professionally. I look forward to sharing this holistic and affirming process with others and to learning more about you in the process!
