Affirming Therapy for Neurodivergent Folks Across California

Your mind is constantly buzzing—ideas, thoughts, and emotions swirling in a way that feels both exhilarating and overwhelming.

Maybe you’ve always felt “different,” like you don’t quite fit into the boxes the world wants you to occupy. You’ve learned to mask, to adapt, to make yourself palatable to others, but it leaves you feeling exhausted and disconnected from who you really are.
 

Underneath the surface, there’s a part of you yearning for authenticity, for a place where you don’t have to hide or change yourself to be accepted. But instead, you’re stuck in a cycle of self-doubt, shame, and fear. You wonder: Why can’t I just be like everyone else? Is something wrong with me? You replay interactions in your head, second-guessing yourself and bracing for judgment.
 

You try to suppress the parts of you that feel “too much” or “not enough,” but they come back stronger—like they’re demanding to be seen. You feel suffocated, caught between the pressure to conform and the deep need to honor who you are.
 

There is nothing wrong with you. Your brain works in its own unique way, and that is not a flaw—it’s a part of your brilliance. In therapy, we’ll create a space where you can let go of the shame, embrace your neurodivergence, and learn to navigate the world on your terms. You don’t have to fight against yourself anymore. It’s time to unmask, reclaim your truth, and find peace in being exactly who you are.

How It Works:

Neurodivergent-affirming therapy is about creating a space where you feel understood, valued, and supported—exactly as you are. It’s not about fixing or changing you; it’s about helping you embrace your neurodivergence as a vital part of your identity and finding ways to thrive in a world that doesn’t always make space for differences. Here’s how we’ll work together:
 

  • Create a Safe and Judgment-Free Space

  • Explore Your Experiences

  • Celebrate Your Strengths

  • Build Coping Tools That Work for You

  • Unmask and Find Authenticity

  • Create an Accessible Life
     

The goal isn’t to change you; it’s to help you create a life that works for you. We’ll explore how to set boundaries, communicate your needs, and advocate for accommodations that allow you to flourish.

Neurodivergent-affirming therapy is a collaborative journey toward self-acceptance, empowerment, and connection. You deserve a therapist who truly sees you, understands you, and believes in your potential. Let’s work together to create a life where you can thrive as your most authentic self.
