Our Mission
We help those with ASD and/or ADHD rise above their struggles to live a full life, embracing their differences and unique gifts.
Our assessment process (with integrated therapy) gives you the clarity you need to understand yourself better so you can live a genuine thriving life.
We offer strength-based counseling and coaching services designed to minimize the challenges of Autism and ADHD while surfacing natural strengths and gifts.
What Happens in an Assessment?
You will work with one of our trained clinicians to gain a comprehensive understanding of your thoughts, behaviors, and life experiences.
Your clinician will gather information from various sources, such as scientifically validated assessments (beyond screening tests), behavior questionnaires, and input from family members or individuals who are familiar with you.
Your clinician will also work with you from a therapeutic standpoint to make meaning of the assessment results and build a path to helpful changes in your life.

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that is commonly associated with children. However, many adults also experience ADHD symptoms that can significantly impact their daily lives. Adults with ADHD may struggle with organizing tasks, maintaining focus, and following through on responsibilities.
This can lead to difficulties in the workplace, social relationships, and self-esteem. Despite the challenges, it is important to recognize that ADHD is a valid condition and individuals with ADHD are not lazy or unmotivated.
There are various treatment options available, including medication, therapy, and lifestyle changes. With proper treatment, adults with ADHD can learn strategies to improve their focus, productivity, and overall well-being.
It is also important for individuals with ADHD to practice self-compassion and recognize that they are not alone in their experiences. By seeking a diagnosis and therapy, individuals with ADHD can overcome their challenges and thrive in their personal and professional lives.
