Finding a therapist who genuinely understands adult neurodivergence (especially subtle, high-masking, or late-identified presentations of ASD and ADHD) can be a vital step after completing a diagnostic evaluation.

Because our practice focuses exclusively on psychological testing and diagnostic evaluations, we have compiled this directory of local and California telehealth and in-person psychotherapy providers. The clinicians listed below specialize in neurodiversity-affirming care for adults, focusing on practical life navigation, burnout recovery, executive functioning, and authentic self-understanding rather than pathologizing neurodivergent traits. Many also openly share their own lived experience as neurodivergent practitioners.
