Our treatment options include:
Neurodivergence-AffirmingTherapy for
Our individual autism therapy sessions are designed for autistic and ADHD adults and teens seeking greater self-understanding and emotional regulation. Therapy focuses on:
Psychoeducation and Identity Integration
Building a deep understanding of your neurodivergent profile — reframing past struggles (such as social difficulties, being misunderstood, or academic burnout) not as personal shortcomings but as natural outcomes of living in a world not designed for your brain.
Processing the Toll of Autism Masking and Camouflaging
Exploring the emotional and physical toll of suppressing your authentic traits. Therapy provides a safe, validating space to process exhaustion, anxiety, and disconnection while learning to unmask safely and gradually.
Developing an “Energy Budget”
Learning to identify which activities, environments, and relationships drain or restore your energy — and creating routines that respect your capacity. This helps reduce burnout and improve daily functioning.
Building an Authentic Sense of Self as an Autistic Adult
Supporting clients in embracing their natural ways of thinking, communicating, and self-regulating (including stimming, sensory tools, and special interests) while fostering genuine relationships.

“Before my friend recommended the Thriving Wellness Center, I had worked with a couple of therapists in New York trying to understand why I never could fit in with other people. Conversations have always been tough. Receiving an Autism Evaluation and diagnosis with Leila has helped me understand myself better. I wish I would have done this along time ago.”
