Do any of these sound familiar?

“My neurodivergent child does so well at school, but melts down the moment they get home”

“My teen is bright an capable but struggles with executive functioning and school work which is making them anxious and/or depressed.”

“I am so tired of trying to work in a system that doesn’t seem to work for me. I am tired of being overwhelmed and burnt out.”

“I (or your child) want to know more about how my brain works and what I can do to create systems of support.”

“I want to learn to work with my brain and body instead of feeling like I am fighting against it all the time.”

You are in the right place.

A kaleidoscope is beautiful and ever changing, just like our brains. But, if you look through the wrong end, it can look like a garbled mess. It isn’t that the kaleidoscope is broken, just that we aren’t viewing it correctly. At Kaleidoscope we are here to support neurodivergent folks who are tired of living in a world not built for them. Many people come to therapy feeling like they are broken or like they don’t belong. Some can keep up the appearance of having it all together while others are in full burnout mode. The world, life, and circumstances has them looking through the wrong end of a kaleidoscope.

As neurodivergent, creative therapists, we take the approach that all brains are beautiful and we are not here to change who you are. We focus on providing therapy and support to neurodivergent children, teens, adults, and families in Northern Virginia. Instead of looking for things to fix, our therapists will work with you to gain awareness and understanding so that you can embrace all parts of yourself, learn how to accept and accommodate those things that need support, and live life on your terms. Essentially, we want to help you to look through the correct end of your kaleidoscope!
