Neurodiversity Affirming Telehealth Therapy for Autistic & ADHD Adults in Georgia

If You’re Here...

You may have spent years carrying more than most people realize.

Maybe you learned early how to adapt, over-function, self-monitor, and keep pushing yourself to meet expectations that never quite fit how your brain or nervous system actually worked.

From the outside, you may appear capable, dependable, successful, or “high functioning.”

But internally, life may feel exhausting.

Many neurodivergent adults spend years trying harder without understanding why everyday life seems to require so much more effort than it appears to for other people. Over time, that strain can become chronic burnout, perfectionism, shutdown, emotional exhaustion, sensory overwhelm, self-doubt, or the constant feeling that you are always working harder just to keep up.

None of this reflects a personal failure.

What you have been navigating makes sense in context, even if no one ever explained it that way before.

When Things Start Making Sense

You may have recently started wondering whether you could be autistic, ADHD, or both.

And when that possibility begins coming into focus, many long-standing patterns suddenly start connecting differently.

The burnout.
The masking.
The overwhelm.
The pressure to constantly “try harder.”
The exhaustion after social interaction.
The feeling that life somehow takes more effort than it seems to for everyone else.

These were not signs that something was inherently wrong with you.

They were understandable responses to navigating environments, expectations, and systems that were not designed around your nervous system.

For many people, this shift in perspective becomes the beginning of a very different relationship with themselves.

Not through fixing who they are, but through finally understanding themselves more accurately.

Neurodiversity-Affirming Therapy in Georgia

Therapy can become a space where you no longer have to constantly explain, minimize, justify, or translate your experiences in order for them to be understood.

This work is not about teaching you how to appear more neurotypical.

It is about helping you understand your nervous system more clearly, reduce the chronic strain of masking and over-functioning, and build a life that feels more sustainable, authentic, and workable for your actual capacity and needs.

Together, we may explore autistic burnout and chronic exhaustion, masking and long-term self-monitoring, perfectionism and impossible internal standards, sensory and emotional overwhelm, executive functioning difficulties, identity and late discovery, chronic self-blame and shame, relationships and boundaries, trauma, and the process of rebuilding self-trust over time.

Many clients describe this as the first time therapy has felt like it addressed the deeper patterns underneath the exhaustion rather than only focusing on surface-level symptoms.

My Approach

I’m Christine Harris, LPCC, a licensed clinical therapist and late-diagnosed AuDHD (Autistic & ADHD) adult.

I created this practice to offer the kind of space I wish had existed earlier in my own life — neurodiversity-affirming, trauma-informed, evidence-based, and grounded in both professional training and lived neurodivergent experience.

I provide telehealth therapy to autistic and ADHD adults physically located in Georgia at the time of sessions, in accordance with Georgia practice requirements.

Sessions are held securely online, allowing therapy to happen from your own environment without the additional strain of commuting, traffic, waiting rooms, or navigating overstimulating spaces simply to access support.

For adults who have spent years masking, pushing through exhaustion, or questioning why life seems to require so much effort, having access to a therapist who specializes specifically in late-identified autism and ADHD can make a meaningful difference.

Therapy becomes a place to slow those patterns down, understand what is happening underneath them, and begin building a life that fits more closely with who you actually are.
