You’ve always known your brain works differently…

and we think that's worth celebrating. You see things others miss, feel things more deeply, and think in ways that don't fit neat boxes. Therapy is a place to understand yourself more fully and build a life you love.

Many neurodivergent people spend years masking, adapting, and working twice as hard just to fit into systems that weren't built with them in mind. Whether you've had a formal diagnosis for years, recently received one as an adult, or simply feel like your brain has always worked differently, therapy can be a place where you don't have to perform or explain yourself.

At Self Space, we offer therapy for people who are neurodivergent and ready to explore what support actually looks like for them.

 
 
 
 

Who we work with

Neurodivergent is a broad and self-defined term. We welcome people who identify this way, including those with:

  • Living with ADHD can mean navigating a world that constantly demands sustained attention, linear thinking, and consistent follow-through - things that may feel effortless for some and genuinely hard for others. Therapy can help with:

    • Shame and self-criticism around productivity and "falling short"

    • Emotional dysregulation and its impact on relationships

    • Anxiety, burnout, and the exhaustion of compensating

    • Understanding how ADHD intersects with your identity and history

  • Many autistic individuals come to therapy not because autism is the problem, but because the world's response to it has been. Therapy at Self Space is a space to:

    • Process experiences of masking and the toll it takes

    • Work through grief, late-diagnosis adjustment, or identity questions

    • Explore relationships, communication, and social exhaustion on your own terms

    • Address co-occurring anxiety, depression, or trauma

  • For some people, sensory input - sound, light, touch, crowds - registers more intensely or differently than it does for others. This can shape how you move through the world in ways that are hard to explain and easy to be misunderstood about. Therapy can create space to understand your needs and build a life that accommodates them without shame.

  • Neurodivergence includes a wide range of experiences: learning differences, OCD, Tourette's, and more. If you're not sure whether we're the right fit, we'd rather you reach out and ask than assume we're not.

Please note: Self Space therapists do not provide diagnostic evaluations or executive functioning coaching. If you're looking for testing or assessment, we're happy to help you find a referral.

The goal of therapy isn't to “fix you”

Self Space believes that the goal of therapy isn't to make you less neurodivergent - it's to help you understand yourself more fully and live a life that feels more like yours, able to love and celebrate who you are. Your brain isn't broken. But you may be carrying a lot of weight that therapy can help you set down.
