We specialize in the treatment of people age 18 and older who have Asperger's Syndrome/High Functioning Autistic Spectrum Disorder and related conditions.
Alix Generous is an amazing young woman— she's done award-winning science and helped develop new technology--all before graduating college. She has Asperger's, a form of autistic spectrum disorder that can impair basic social skills required for communication, can be associated with certain sensitivities, anxiety, and depression. She found the right treatment and worked hard to learn how to share her thoughts with the world and manage issues of anxiety and trauma. In this funny, personal talk, she shares her story.
