Hi, I’m Emily Bachardy, LCSW (she/her). I’m an autistic and ADHD therapist.
I specialize in working with autistic, ADHD, and AuDHD adults, especially those navigating trauma, anxiety, identity confusion, or addiction.
Healing is possible when your brain is understood, not pathologized.
Traditional therapy often focuses on behavior without understanding the nervous system of an autistic or ADHD brain. My work integrates trauma healing, emotional regulation, and identity support without trying to change who you are.
âś” Evidence-based trauma therapy
âś” Affirming of self-diagnosed & late-identified adults
âś” Support for addiction without shame
âś” Practical nervous system tools
âś” Depth-oriented exploration (not surface-level coping)
