Affirming support for the change you want.
Individual Therapy
Difficult Moods and Emotions
Sometimes it feels like our emotions have taken over. We can help you learn skills to manage difficult emotions and reduce patterns of depression, anxiety, and mania that get in the way of living your best life.

Exploring Neurodivergence
Whether you’re wondering about autism or ADHD or you already identify as neurodivergent, we can help you explore how your nervous system works and find ways to heal and thrive in the neurotypical world.

Trauma and Attachment Wounds
When difficult experiences from the past interfere with your present, we can help you learn to feel safe in your body, put the past in the past, and retell your story from an empowered perspective.
Coping with Oppression
As an artist, activist, or helping professional, you know what it’s like to struggle within systematic oppression. We can’t change the systems in therapy, but we CAN learn ways to cope that provide a foundation for the change work we do in the world.

Family, Couples, and Polycule Therapy
Refining Your Agreements
Whether you’re moving in, getting married, opening up, or breaking up, a therapist can help you refine and revise your agreements so they fit your new circumstances.
Mixed Neurotype Relationships
Resolve conflicting needs or different communication styles from a neuro-affirming perspective
Conflict and Repair
Fighting is normal. Learn to fight fair and make up in ways that help you feel closer.
Transitioning Together
Transitions can bring us together or cause us to grow apart. Whether it’s a move, a gender transition, a career change, or the birth of a child, you want to make conscious choices about how you relate to each other and cope with the changes.

Gender Affirming Letters
As a Gender Affirming Letter Access Project (GALAP) Pledge signers, we offer free and low-cost letters required by insurers for gender-affirming medical gender treatments and procedures. Our aim with these letters is to advocate for your body autonomy by stating that you have a diagnosis of gender dysphoria and are capable of informed consent. It is best if you already have researched the risks and benefits of the treatment or procedures you are seeking prior your appointment. For adults, we offer free letters after a single interview that usually takes 30-45 minutes. Schedule your Gender-Affirming Medical Care Letter appointment through our client portal or contact us if you have further questions. If you are located in another state, consult the Directory of GALAP Pledge signers.

COMING SOON: Neuro-Affirming Assessments
Formal adult neuropsychological assessment is expensive and often requires a long wait. A full assessment by a psychologist is not always necessary. BT and Miles will soon offer Master’s level consultation and assessment for adults who want exploration and/or confirmation of suspected neurodivergence, documentation of disability accommodations needed for work, college, or university*, documentation of diagnosis for medical providers*, or a lower cost option for adult assessment.
This is NOT the right service for you if you need documentation in order to receive state or federal disability benefits, documentation for professional exam accommodations, or regional center services.
*Some schools and medical providers may require a PhD level assessment.
