Celebrate Your Unique Mind
Neurodiversity Affirming Psychotherapy
At Aligned Health, our therapists work from a neurodiversity-affirming framework, seeing neurodivergence as a natural and valuable variation of the human mind. This approach means we don't pathologize your neurotype; instead, we provide a space to explore your unique experiences, strengths, and challenges as an individual who is Autistic, has ADHD, or is Au-ADHD. Our goal is to move beyond generic support and create an environment where you can feel truly seen, heard, and empowered to thrive as your authentic self.
​
We understand that conventional therapeutic approaches can sometimes miss the mark. We work collaboratively with you, focusing on practical strategies for managing sensory needs, navigating executive function challenges, and building social connections that feel genuine and right for you. Our goal is to provide affirming, knowledgeable care that helps you build a life that is both manageable and fulfilling.
