Neurodiversity-Affirming Therapy

At SHIPS, we provide neurodiversity-affirming therapy that honours the unique ways neurodivergent people experience the world.

Our approach is grounded in respect, curiosity, and a commitment to challenging deficit-based models of care.

We offer tailored support for autistic, ADHD, and otherwise neurodivergent clients — whether you're seeking help with identity exploration, navigating relationships, processing trauma, or managing the demands of a neurotypical world.

Our therapists understand that sensory processing differences, communication styles, executive functioning, and emotional regulation are all part of a diverse human experience — not problems to be fixed. Instead of focusing on "masking" or "normalising" behaviours, we support clients to build self-understanding, self-advocacy, and environments that actually work for them.

We welcome self-diagnosed and professionally diagnosed clients alike, and many of our therapists also engage in ongoing neurodiversity training or bring lived experience to their work.
