Find Adult Autism Care Near You

Hi there, I’m Cheryl Gardner, and I’m so glad you’re here. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with over 20 years of experience in the field of mental health. I’m based in Atlanta, but I’m proud to offer virtual therapy services across California, Georgia, New Jersey, and Florida, which allows me to connect with clients from diverse backgrounds and experiences.What truly drives me as a provider is helping individuals discover their authentic selves. I’ve spent much of my career supporting clients through trauma, anxiety, ADHD, and identity challenges, and I’ve witnessed the transformative power of self-awareness and self-compassion. What I love most about this work is the ability to create a safe space where clients feel seen, heard, and empowered to explore their emotions and navigate life’s challenges.I specialize in working with adults, particularly women and neurodivergent individuals, including those on the autism spectrum. My approach is rooted in empathy, understanding, and a deep belief that everyone has the potential for growth, healing, and fulfillment. I believe in meeting my clients where they are, helping them honor their experiences, and supporting them as they develop the tools to thrive, not just survive. Outside of therapy, I’m passionate about building communities of support through my self-awareness movement, ‘Discover, Embrace, and Evolve.’ It’s all about helping people step into their full potential, embrace their uniqueness, and live with purpose. I’m honored to walk alongside my clients as they embark on their own journeys of transformation, and I truly believe that no matter the challenges, healing is always possible.

I am dedicated to supporting individuals with autism as they navigate life's challenges and work towards improving their overall quality of life. I am especially passionate about working with individuals of diverse backgrounds who struggle with life transitions, anxiety, depression, communication issues, burnout, and chronic illness. With experience in the behavioral health field since 2006, I am committed to creating a warm, culturally sensitive, compassionate, and non-judgmental therapeutic environment.

Welcome! My name is Tracy Marsh (she/her), and I’m so glad you found your way to Prosper. I’m a licensed psychologist in California with a doctorate in counseling psychology, and I bring over 25 years of experience in higher education as a university faculty member.

Hi! I’m Dr. Andrew Mendonsa, a clinical and forensic psychologist licensed in over a dozen states across the U.S. I’ve been working in the mental health field for over 20 years and have extensive experience supporting neurodivergent individuals—particularly autistic teens, adults, and those exploring whether autism may be part of their identity. My approach is neurodiversity-affirming, respectful, and strengths-based. I believe autism is not something to be “fixed,” but better understood, honored, and supported.My interest in autism is both professional and personal: I have neurodivergent family and have spent much of my career helping people who mask or camouflage their traits finally feel seen. I understand how overwhelming or invalidating the world can be, especially for those who have gone undiagnosed or misunderstood for years. Whether you’re seeking clarity, self-understanding, or support for anxiety, burnout, or identity exploration, I aim to create a safe and validating space that respects your lived experience.When I’m not working, I enjoy activities that align with many of my clients’ interests—like retro video games, science fiction, trains, building Lego, puzzles, and exploring nature. I bring a calm, nonjudgmental presence to my work, and I genuinely value the unique perspectives of those I serve.
