Online Therapy for ADHD, Autism & AuDHD
Neurodivergent-affirming care for burnout, masking, executive functioning, relationships, and the strain of trying to keep up with systems that were never designed around you.
You may have spent years being called inconsistent, overly sensitive, disorganized, difficult, or “full of potential.” Perhaps you became very good at appearing capable while privately running out of energy. Therapy can begin with your actual patterns, needs, and context.
Care in context
Attention, sensory needs, and burnout are shaped by lived conditions.
Neurodivergent care should have room for the environments, histories, relationships, and expectations shaping your daily life.
Years of misunderstanding
Many people with ADHD, autism, or AuDHD arrive in therapy carrying years of being called difficult, inconsistent, overly sensitive, or capable enough that their struggles should not count.
Support that understands context
Neurodivergent-affirming therapy understands attention, regulation, energy, and communication in relation to environment, history, relationships, and stress. Your needs do not become less real because you have learned to hide them.
Care that translates into daily life
Our work centers consent, pacing, and practical support, rather than asking you to become more acceptable to systems that have not made room for you.
When the usual advice is not helping
You may already know how to use a planner.
Many neurodivergent people arrive in therapy with plenty of strategies. You may have tried calendars, productivity systems, routine charts, accountability apps, meditation, and advice about becoming more disciplined.
Some of it may have worked briefly. Then your capacity changed, the system fell apart, and the shame returned.
Therapy gives us room to ask different questions.
Instead of asking why you cannot make yourself do it, we can look at what is happening around the task.
Neurodivergent support becomes more useful when it accounts for energy, sensory needs, relationships, past experiences, and the systems you are being asked to move through.
What makes a task hard to begin?
What happens before shutdown, overwhelm, or avoidance?
How much energy goes into appearing fine?
Whose expectations are you carrying?
What would support look like if it fit your actual life?
What resources, environments, or relationships would make things more workable?
The goal is to understand your patterns well enough to build support that fits your actual life.
What we support
Care for the patterns underneath the pressure.
Neurodivergent therapy can make room for the everyday realities of attention, sensory processing, energy, identity, relationships, and systems that demand too much.
You do not need to fit a stereotype of ADHD, autism, or neurodivergence for your needs to deserve care.
Our approach
Therapy that does not treat you like a behavior problem.
Our therapists work collaboratively. You will not be graded on eye contact, stillness, punctuality, productivity, emotional restraint, or how neurotypical you can appear.
Patterns before judgment
Understanding overwhelm, shutdown, avoidance, recovery, and the conditions that make a task, conversation, or transition feel possible.
Support that fits your brain
ADHD-informed support for planning, transitions, memory, task initiation, sensory needs, and strategies grounded in your actual environment.
Room to unmask, rest, and recover
Exploring masking, sensory overload, autistic or neurodivergent burnout, and where it may feel safer to unmask without asking you to disclose more than you want to.
Identity, relationships, and autonomy
Processing grief, anger, or relief after a late diagnosis; preparing for accommodation conversations; building communication across neurotypes; and protecting bodily autonomy.
Life beyond criticism and coping
Working through shame created by years of misunderstanding, while making room for race, gender, disability, culture, class, and interdependence.
Forms of support you can sustain
Finding rest, structure, relationships, boundaries, and practical supports that work with your capacity instead of against it.
You do not have to become easier to manage for therapy to count as progress.
Communication and access
Therapy should make room for your way of communicating.
Many therapy settings reward fast answers, direct eye contact, stillness, and a predictable level of energy. Those expectations do not tell us whether you are engaged, thoughtful, or doing meaningful work.
Presence can look different
You may look away, lie down, move, stim, use captions, or keep your camera off. We can talk about what helps you be present without asking your body to meet someone else’s idea of attention.
Thinking and responding take time
Therapy can slow down enough for you to find words, write something out, ask for a question to be repeated, or communicate more directly and literally. There is no prize for answering quickly.
Capacity changes, and care can respond
Fatigue, overwhelm, memory, and emotional access can shift from week to week. Therapy can include practical ways of remembering what matters, pacing sessions, and naming needs before they become a crisis.
Each therapist has their own way of working. During matching, you can ask how they communicate and share what would make therapy more workable before deciding whether the fit feels right.
Tell us what would helpWho this support is for
You may be looking for neurodivergent-affirming therapy if…
You do not need the right terminology, a formal diagnosis, or a complete explanation before beginning. A sense that life has become harder to carry is enough.
You are newly exploring, self-identifying, or diagnosed with ADHD, autism, or AuDHD.
Looking capable has come at the cost of your energy, rest, or sense of self.
Work, school, or relationships are taking more effort than people around you can see.
Previous therapy made you feel corrected, managed, or misunderstood.
You need support with accommodations, boundaries, communication, or self-advocacy.
Your race, culture, gender, disability, queerness, or migration story belongs in the conversation too.
Care can begin with the life you are already living, rather than a version of yourself you have to prove.
Meet Our Some Of Our
Neurodivergent-Affirming Therapists
Many of our clinicians bring both lived experience and focused training in working with ADHD, autistic, and AuDHD clients.
Our therapists practice from trauma-informed and neurodivergent-affirming perspectives that attend to how disability, race, gender, and social position shape access, stress, and care. Therapy is approached as a collaborative relationship rather than an evaluative one.
