An inclusive, affirming clinical approach

We pride ourselves on providing neurodivergent-affirming care in our interventions, welcoming and celebrating the individual differences that people have while helping clients identify areas for authentic growth. For those needing more guidance, we also provide assessments for all ages to further identify the appropriate treatments and supports based on underlying conditions. Dr. Ryan and her team focus on assessing neurodevelopmental disorders, including ADHD, autism, and learning disorders, along with other developmental and intellectual disorders, including giftedness.

Our assessments are neurodivergent-affirming and therapeutic, aiming to identify and celebrate strengths while also labeling differences and needs to help clients and their families build a better understanding of themselves. Our assessments also evaluate comorbid behavioral, anxiety, and mood disorders. As part of the assessment, Dr. Ryan establishes tailored recommendations for school, work, and home settings to help the client and others understand and support their needs while capitalizing on their strengths.

Julia Ryan Psychology offers a range of mental health services to individuals across the lifespan. As a neurodivergent-affirming and inclusivity focused practice, we aim to help clients understand themselves and feel empowered to make changes that support their wellbeing and life goals. Our team of clinicians offers individual therapy, groups, and workshops for those living with or supporting people with ADHD, autism, emotion or behavior regulation challenges, anxiety, and mood concerns.

We are grounded in a collaborative, flexible, and integrative approach, aiming to develop genuine, caring relationships with clients that serve as the foundation for change. We work together to identify goals and develop skills that work best for the individual. We include evidence-based practices and modalities like CBT, DBT, and ACT, while also focusing on helping clients identify their strengths and needs and develop new ways to navigate the world and the challenges they face.
