Practical Strategies & Neuroaffirming Support for Autistic Adults

Discovering that you’re autistic – whether through a formal autism diagnosis or self-identification – can bring a mix of relief, validation, and questions. What does this mean for your daily life? How can you unmask, set boundaries, and live authentically? What supports are available for work, relationships, and mental wellbeing?

We are passionate about supporting you – many of our Psychologists have lived experience of discovering that they are autistic and AuDHD too.

At Mindworx Psychology, we offer neuroaffirming, strengths-based autism support for adults looking to understand themselves, navigate challenges, and thrive. Whether you need therapy, coaching, workplace accommodations, or community support, we’re here to help.
