Healing from
Assimilation Trauma
Group therapy for neurodivergent adults beginning the journey of unmasking
Growing up autistic in a world built for neurotypical people can mean learning to mask, push through, and ignore our own needs, leaving many of us feeling overwhelmed, burned out, disconnected from ourselves, or unsure of who we really are.
This group offers space to understand these experiences; develop skills for navigating sensory overwhelm, burnout, and nervous system dysregulation; and reconnect with our feelings, needs and wants. Through a combination of psychoeducation, discussion, mindfulness, somatic practices, and practical skills drawn from trauma-focused therapy, DBT, ACT, we’ll explore ways to move toward a more authentic, values-aligned life.
Under Development
DBT skills
for Neurospicy Brains
Sensory overwhelm, shutdown, meltdown, and burnout can make it hard to know what we’re feeling, what we need, or how to respond in the moment. Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT) has been dubbed the gold standard treatment for individuals dealing with complex trauma. Let’s explore together what DBT can offer to ND folks and our relationships.
This group uses DBT skills to build greater awareness of emotions and nervous system states, increase distress tolerance, and develop more flexible ways of responding to ourselves and others. Through mindfulness, dialectical thinking, self-compassion, emotion regulation, and distress tolerance skills, we’ll work together toward greater self-awareness, clearer boundaries, and choices that reflect what actually matters to us.
FAQs about Groups-
Peer support drop in groups focus on skills building. group discussion, and independent participation in body doubling (working independently in the presence of another person, to support focus and accountability). The facilitator provides structure and some psychoeducation, while participants provide context and application. Bring something you want to work on in the last half of the session. This type of group is “come as you are”, and all types and levels of respectful participation are welcome and valued.
Group therapy is a space for individuals to increase their self knowledge and their skills in interaction with the facilitator and their peers. You will learn new concepts; participate in discussion and guided exercises to apply them to your own life; and then debrief this experience with your peers. You will get the most out of group sessions if you come to group expecting to be vulnerable and to push your own limits a bit.

Peer support drop ins are open to all community members, with clear guidelines and agreements for participation.
Therapy group participants are carefully screened to help ensure that there is a good fit with the purpose, goals, activities, and other group members. This is why we require short phone interviews before confirming group participation. Closed groups are a big commitment (both financially and therapeutically). If you and everyone else are ready to commit to process, they can be transformative.

Therapy groups are “closed”, meaning they require a commitment to complete all of the sessions. This helps to create emotional safety and predictability for all group members.
It’s normal to feel anxious when you start a group, but with time most group members find they develop a sense of safety and comfort within the group. If you’re unsure of how you will feel in a longer running closed therapy group, our drop in sessions can be a good starting point to explore the community and your feelings about group work.

Drop in groups are pay what you can (PWYC) and operate on a per-session payment schedule.
Therapy groups are “closed”, meaning they require a commitment to complete all of the sessions. This helps to create emotional safety and predictability for all group members. Payment up-front allows for the group to proceed with all spaces full.
Access is important to me. If the payment requirements are making it impossible for you to participate, please reach out and we can discuss a payment plan that works for you. I reserve a limited number of subsidized spaces for low income participants.

Because facilitators are registered social workers and/or registered psychotherapists, both drop in and therapy groups qualify as counseling services under most extended healthcare plans. Your insurance company can provide you with information about how coverage amounts.
While we do not provide direct to insurance billing at this time, receipts will be provided for reimbursement, and we are happy to support you in figuring out a payment plan that works for you and for your insurance company.
