Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) affects approximately 1 out of every 36 people. It is a disorder that reaches across all races, ethnicities, and socio-economic groups. However, it is nearly four times more common among boys than girls. ASD is a neurological disorder that primarily affects social interactions and behaviors; it is not an indication of intelligence. And because it is a spectrum disorder, it affects different people in different ways and to different degrees.

Discovering that you or your child has autism is often life-altering. But, with supportive, caring therapy and intervention, many people with autism spectrum disorder live productive and fulfilling lives! Autism is a lifelong disorder and has no cure, but there are treatments and therapies individuals can undertake to help lessen their ASD symptoms. At Firefly Counseling, our therapists are skilled at helping those with autism spectrum disorder find the tools to live their lives to the fullest!

Our therapists will work with you or your child in a secure, sensory-friendly, supportive environment. Your personal counselor will help you develop a treatment plan best suited to the individual’s skills, interests, likes, and strengths. Our well-trained counselors are caring, supportive, trained, and experienced in the most up-to-date research and therapy methods for autism spectrum disorder. Your counselor will create an individualized plan for you or your child to increase communication, social interactions, and functional motor skills. Your individualized plan will also assist in decreasing repetitive or non-helpful behaviors.

Individuals with autism spectrum disorder often deal with other neurological conditions or learning disabilities like ADHD, sensory processing, OCD, depression, and anxiety. The counselors at Firefly Counseling are trained to recognize and treat these conditions in conjunction with autism and understand the impact of multiple conditions on a person’s social-emotional well-being. We understand that living with autism spectrum disorder is a life-long condition, but we don’t believe that a condition defines who a person is or what they can do! Our goal is to help those with autism develop skills they can utilize daily that increase functionality, self-confidence, and independence. We help individuals with their diagnosis, not against it, so they can take control of their lives!
