Portia Seals
About
Hi, I’m Portia Seals, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Licensed Master Social Worker, licensed in Colorado, Michigan, and Florida. I believe that empathy is at the heart of meaningful therapy—I strive to create a space where you truly feel heard and understood. Everyone’s journey is different, and my passion is helping you uncover your strengths, recognize patterns, and make positive changes in your life. I love witnessing those moments when things click and you gain new insight into yourself. My approach is both supportive and gently challenging, and I’m committed to walking alongside you as you work toward growth and healing.
My motivation to work with autistic and neurodivergent clients is deeply personal—both of my children are neurodivergent, and through their experiences, I’ve witnessed firsthand how challenging it can be to find understanding, supportive care and the right services. Seeing the obstacles they’ve faced has inspired me to become the difference I wish existed for them and for others. I’m passionate about creating a space where you feel truly seen, heard, and supported, and I bring both professional expertise and genuine empathy as someone who understands these challenges from the inside out. My goal is to help you navigate your journey and empower you to thrive.
In my work, I focus on recognizing and building upon each person’s unique strengths, rather than simply addressing challenges. I believe that every individual has abilities and perspectives that deserve to be celebrated and nurtured. My approach is rooted in compassion and affirmation—I listen closely, validate your experiences, and create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can be your authentic self. I’m committed to supporting you as you discover and harness your strengths, helping you move toward your goals and realize your full potential. As a parent of neurodivergent children and an active member of neurodiversity-affirming communities, I strive to bring both professional expertise and lived experience to my practice, ensuring you feel truly understood and empowered.
