Find Your Way Back to Yourself
Helping neurodivergent adults in California build lives that fit
A more compassionate and accurate understanding of yourself
Less energy spent masking, overexplaining, and forcing yourself through life
More trust in your instincts, needs, boundaries, and internal experience
Therapy for the Things You’ve Been Carrying Alone
Burnout. Masking. Shame. Overwhelm. Identity confusion. Relationship struggles. You've been carrying it by yourself long enough.
Stuck in the In-Between
The life you built no longer fits, but you’re still figuring out what comes next.
Everything Feels Harder Than It Should
You’re tired of feeling like you’re constantly falling behind at being a person.
Carrying a Story That Isn't Yours
You’re trying to untangle who you are from who you had to be to survive.
A Neurodivergent Therapist Who Actually Gets It
Lauren Evans, LMFT
As a queer, fat, late-diagnosed neurodivergent therapist, I know firsthand what it’s like to wake up one day and realize you’ve spent a very long time trying to become who other people expected you to be. I also know how disorienting it can feel when the old ways of surviving stop working, but you haven’t figured out yet who you are underneath all of it.
I help neurodivergent adults navigate burnout, identity, relationships, sexuality, and religious trauma, especially in those liminal spaces between who you were and who you are becoming. Therapy with me is warm, collaborative, direct, sprinkled with pop culture references and swear words, and grounded in the belief that the struggles we carry make perfect sense in context. I can’t promise to have every answer, but I’ll climb down in the hole with you, because I’ve been there before and together, we can find the way out.
Therapy Designed for Brains Like Yours
Support that meets you in the in-between
Individual Therapy
One-on-one sessions for adults who are overwhelmed, neurodivergent, navigating identity shifts, or healing from shame and high-control religion.
We blend practical skill-building with deeper exploratory work, at a pace that works with your brain, not against it.
- Feel less controlled by the past and more clear about who you're becoming
Relationship Therapy
For couples navigating communication breakdowns, desire differences, or the dynamics of mixed-neurotype, kink-identified, or non-monogamous relationships.
We help each partner understand the other more clearly, so empathy and understanding can step in where blame and confusion have been living.
- Understand each other better and build the relationship you actually want
ADHD and Autism Assessments*
For adults who have long suspected they’re neurodivergent and want real answers. Multiple levels of assessment are available, informal to formal, depending on where you are and what you need. You can finally get the clarity you’ve deserved for years.
- Walk away with answers and a framework that finally makes sense
*Assessments not appropriate for those seeking state or Social Security benefits , or in every circumstance. Reach out to find out if these assessments are appropriate to your particular situation.
