Neurodivergent Affirming Therapy

Stigma-free, affirming, affordable therapy for neurodivergent Individuals

Wayfinder strives to provide a safe, stigma, and judgment free space to help individuals who both are diagnosed, or self diagnose with any neurodivergent condition.  

Many neurodivergent individuals spend their life wondering why they ‘don’t fit in’ or ‘feel different’ than their peers. They may experience struggles in their relationships, stress or difficulty with work, and quickly fluctuating emotions. They often feel burned out and overwhelmed.  

Autism

Neurodivergent affirming therapy helps individuals with autism by embracing and valuing their unique ways of thinking, feeling, and interacting with the world. This approach prioritizes understanding and celebrating autistic traits rather than attempting to “normalize” behavior. It focuses on creating supportive environments that accommodate sensory and communication needs, and it emphasizes the importance of self-advocacy and self-acceptance. By fostering a positive self-identity and resilience, neurodivergent affirming therapy empowers individuals with autism to leverage their strengths and navigate challenges, enhancing their overall quality of life and well-being.

ADHD

Neurodivergent affirming therapy helps individuals with ADHD by recognizing and valuing the unique ways their brains function. This approach emphasizes strengths-based interventions, validating the experiences and perspectives of those with ADHD. It focuses on creating supportive environments that accommodate their needs rather than trying to fit them into neurotypical standards. By fostering self-acceptance and resilience, neurodivergent affirming therapy empowers individuals with ADHD to leverage their unique abilities, enhancing their overall quality of life and well-being.
