Autism Spectrum Disorder
You deserve to be seen, not just managed.
We support autistic adolescents & adults with care that honors your full humanity.
Autism isn’t a flaw, it’s a way of being. At Dreavita, we offer neurodiversity-affirming therapy and coaching designed for adolescents and adults on the autism spectrum, whether formally diagnosed or self-identified. We’re here to support you in navigating life, relationships, work, identity, and transitions without pathologizing who you are.
What Does Autism Feel Like?
These are common autistic experiences, and they’re not personal failures. With the right support, you can thrive in your own way.
You might experience:
Sensory overload or sensitivity to lights, sounds, textures, or smells
Burnout from masking your traits or trying to “pass” as neurotypical
Difficulty understanding or expressing emotions (your own or others)
Deep focus on specific interests that bring joy and meaning
Social anxiety or confusion in unspoken rules
A strong need for routine and predictability
Feelings of isolation, even when surrounded by others
These experiences are valid. You don’t need to be “fixed,” you need understanding and support that works for you.
Our Approach to Autism Support
We match clients with affirming therapists and coaches who specialize in working with neurodivergent adults. Our care may include:
Neurodiversity-affirming therapy to explore identity and build self-acceptance
Somatic & trauma-informed care to address autistic burnout and sensory dysregulation
Skill-building and coaching for executive functioning, transitions, or social navigation
Relationship and workplace support to advocate for your needs and boundaries
We never aim to erase your traits, only to reduce distress, affirm your identity, and help you live more fully.
Autistic Adults Often Also Experience:
Many autistic clients also navigate:
ADHD, OCD, or anxiety
Gender or sexual identity exploration
Complex trauma from medical gaslighting or childhood invalidation
Depression or burnout from chronic masking
Our therapists are trained to hold space for all of it, with intersectionality and lived experience in mind.
