Therapy for Adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder

My goal as an ASD psychologist

Assisting someone with Autism Spectrum Disorder to live a successful, meaningful, and happy life is my goal as an ASD  psychologist. I treat adults with ASD through psychotherapy, skill building, and other resources.

The aim of therapy for Autism Spectrum Disorder includes:

Interpret Gestures

Learning to correctly interpret non-verbal communition, such as body posture, facial expression, vocal tone, and other forms of non-verbal communication, so that the meanings and intentions of social communication are clearer.

Social Skills

Building social skills and increasing flexibility in social situations.

Realistic Understanding

Developing a realistic understanding of who one is and greater appreciation of one’s unique qualities and strengths.

Reduce Self-Doubt

Reducing self-doubt and self-criticism.

Increase Self-Esteem

Increasing social success and self-esteem.

Therapy for adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) begins with a thorough analysis of personal strengths and challenges. The goals for therapy are defined and described in measurable terms. A plan of action is determined, and assessing the outcome of that plan occurs periodically during the course of therapy.

Treatment of ASD in adults varies from a few sessions to a longer-term commitment, depending upon one’s goals and motivation.

The Cost of Therapy for Adults ASD

My fee is $250 per session. Please note that all payments are made directly to me. I do not bill insurance companies for my services. However, I can give you a superbill with all the necessary information for you to submit a claim for direct reimbursement. Should you choose to use insurance, I strongly recommend that you check ahead of time what your benefits are for individual therapy.

California Assessment & Treatment Services for Adult Autism Spectrum Disorder

As a trained psychologist, I have worked with ASD patients in San Francisco for many years, but I know how difficult it is for people further afield to reach me for help. As part of my assessment, diagnosis, and treatment, I offer telehealth services for people throughout California.

My mission is to help anyone with Autism Spectrum Disorder overcome the challenges of ASD and lead happy and productive lives. My video conference service has been set up to allow ASD adults in California to reach out to me as easily as possible, helping them to start their journey towards higher-functioning behaviors and an easier life. This includes:
