Neurodivergence Support and Affirming Therapy
Are you or your child navigating a world that often feels out of sync with your unique way of thinking, sensing, or connecting? You’re not alone—support is here, and your neurodiversity is valued.
What Is Neurodivergence?
Neurodivergence includes individuals with ADHD, autism, sensory processing differences, learning disabilities, and beyond. These richly diverse brains experience the world in nuanced ways that can be joyful, creative, and complex—yet living in systems designed for a single “norm” can feel exhausting or isolating.
How Neurodivergence Can Show Up Across Ages
Children
Children may show sensory sensitivities, high activity levels, trouble following routines, or unique social communication styles. They might be misunderstood, struggle in traditional classrooms, or develop intense interests.
Adolescents
Adolescents might experience challenges with organization, social expectations, masking or camouflaging differences, and heightened anxiety or emotional swings. Stress from peer relationships or school demands can be especially intense during these years.
Adults
Adults could face difficulties balancing work, family, and daily responsibilities, masking to fit in, managing sensory overload, or coping with “invisible labor.” Experiences of misunderstanding or chronic stress are common, as well as co-occurring anxiety or depression.
These experiences can impact:
• Focus and task completion
• Sensory comfort and overwhelm
• Social relationships and communication
• Daily routines, transitions, and flexible thinking
• Emotional regulation and self-esteem
• School or workplace satisfaction
• Identity and self-advocacy
