Find Adult Autism Care Near You

Thank you for taking a moment to read my profile. My name is Alex Lapinski (he/him), and I’m a licensed psychologist based in Los Angeles, and licensed in California and New York. I approach this work with a deep respect for the complexity of human experience and a belief that greater self-understanding can be both clarifying and relieving.I bring a multicultural and contextual lens to my work, with close attention to how culture, identity, family systems, and lived social experiences shape how people understand themselves and are understood by others. Neurodivergence does not exist in a vacuum, and I’m mindful of how factors such as race, gender identity, sexuality, immigration history, and systemic expectations can influence how autism is expressed, masked, overlooked, or misinterpreted over time.I see assessment not as a checklist or a judgment, but as a collaborative process of making sense of patterns, history, and lived experience. My aim is to create a space that feels thoughtful, respectful, and grounded—where you can speak openly and feel genuinely listened to. Each person’s story is unique, and I’m committed to approaching that story with care, curiosity, and nuance.
