Consult Sessions
We offer consult sessions for autistic, ADHD, and AuDHD adults. We specialize in promoting intentionality in parenting and cultivating neuro-inclusive home environments, whether for an individual or a family unit.
Our consult sessions center the neurodivergent experience, offering a compassionate, affirming environment for exploration. We welcome sessions with individuals, as well as parents, caregivers, and family units. These are solution-focused, brief therapy sessions; they differ from traditional therapy in that they are focused and meant to only be one or a few sessions. If you are looking for ongoing individual, couples, or family therapy, please email us, and we can provide referral options.
Our parenting sessions are designed to support the adults in the home in creating the most inclusive, neuro-affirming environment for every member of the family, regardless of neurotype. This may include examining how you meet your own needs if you’re neurodivergent, or how to parent from a lens of intentional inclusion, not accommodation, for neurodivergent children.
We also love supporting individuals and families in creating a neuro-affirming home environment. In these sessions, we will guide you in shedding the neuronormative expectations for what a home looks and feels like, with the goal of centering your needs, so you can thrive.

Our Pricing
We are committed to cost transparency.
-
No — all of our services are out-of-pocket to ensure autonomy over diagnostic disclosure; if we took insurance, any diagnosis or notes would become a part of your medical record/history. This feels especially important in this social and political climate.
-
Our equitable sliding scale model helps to distribute wealth and ensure accessibility to services for clients of all financial statuses.
We use a self-determined sliding scale model for our services, with three rate tiers: (Learn more about identifying your rate here.)
Inclusive rate: above the cost of providing these services, offering mutual aid; for those with more financial resources
Sustainable rate: at the cost of providing these services (our “regular” rate); for those with average financial resources

Self-determined means we do not require any disclosure to select your rate, as we believe in the integrity and self-awareness of our clients. Simply select your rate when you schedule.
We offer two session lengths for financial inclusion, as well.
