Not only does mainstream culture mostly offer puzzle pieces and retreats for people “touched by autism” but good luck finding autism...

For most disabled parents including parents who are autistic/AuDHD/2e, etc, it is usually pretty clear what we need to support our wellbeing

When I am at my lowest points, I also wonder if I should have had kids. It can be a real struggle for me sometimes.

The Euro-Western world is obsessed with individualism and it is no surprise that therapy has become a tool....

All of the times that I felt I wasn’t good enough or professional enough, due to being (late-discovered) AuDHD, came rushing in.

When we see lists of autistic traits, they seem separate and unrelated to each other.

I am beyond thrilled to announce that My Autistic Therapist is growing and expanding into the membership world!

Unmasking and skill regression can look similar.

The most ironic thing about being autistic is that my autistic brain struggled with believing that I was autistic.

And yet, I feel like I don’t fully belong to either the allistic or autistic world 100%. I arrived late here...

Growing up as an (undiscovered) multiply neurodivergent person, I’ve always felt like I was missing key information.

The majority of 2e clients that come to see me have had very “successful” (according to allistic standards, anyway) careers

No one is the expert, we are both just live forms on a spinning planet trying to figure stuff out. It feels REAL.

So, what is neurodivergence-affirming therapy? For one, it is way more radical than you think.

My brain is an analysis machine and the emotional pull a topic has, the more my brain wants to turn it over and examine it inch by inch.

Hands down the number #1 issue I see is internalized ableism that ultimately turns into self-torment.

So, like with any problem I encounter, I dove into books and research.

When I first heard of skill regression being related to autistic burnout, I thought I had never gone through it.

Real transcript of my pre-birth meeting with the universe

To be honest, I wish there really was a credential that proved that a therapist would be helpful and not harmful.
