At Kindred Minds, we offer care that centers understanding over fixing and collaboration over compliance. Our work is grounded in curiosity about how each mind experiences the world and respect for the systems, identities, and relationships that shape mental health.

Our Approach

We provide neurodivergent-affirming therapy, assessments, parent education, and community support with transparency about scope, process, and options. Whether you’re seeking clarity, care, or next steps, we move at a pace that honors autonomy and informed choice.

Our practice is guided by five values: Autonomy, Curiosity, Justice, Community, and Authenticity. These values shape how we practice, communicate, collaborate, and show up—so support feels thoughtful, ethical, and genuinely human.

Our Values

  • Abstract illustration of a stacked arrangement with a blue circle on top, a light mint semi-circle in the middle, and a green semi-circle at the bottom against a black background.

    Autonomy

    At Kindred Minds, autonomy means honoring consent, collaboration, and client-led goals. Clients are not pushed toward outcomes, timelines, or narratives that don’t feel right. You are the expert on your own experience, and care here respects that.

  • A circular, multi-colored chart with concentric rings divided into segments, featuring shades of green, blue, yellow, and light blue.

    Curiosity

    We approach behaviors, emotions, and patterns with curiosity rather than labels of “good” or “bad.” This value supports thoughtful exploration of meaning, context, and nervous system responses—without rushing to correction or pathologizing.

  • Abstract digital art featuring overlapping rounded geometric shapes in yellow, blue, and dark teal on a black background.

    Justice

    Kindred Minds recognizes how inequity, ableism, racism, homophobia, transphobia, and other systemic forces shape lived experience and access to care. Justice means actively reducing harm, naming power dynamics, and centering neurodivergent and queer voices in both practice and advocacy.

  • Abstract circular design with five interconnected, colorful, textured shapes on a black background.

    Community

    This value reflects a commitment to connection—through families, groups, education, and collaboration with schools and community partners. Support is strengthened when people feel less alone and more understood within a broader network of care.

  • Colorful geometric flower design with a central cream-colored circle and petal-shaped segments in shades of blue, green, and yellow on a black background.

    Authenticity

    Authenticity means clients are invited to show up honestly, without masking, minimizing, or pretending. Care at Kindred Minds values real experiences over polished narratives and prioritizes safety over perfection.

Identifying the Right Support for You

Choosing a mental health provider is about more than services—it’s about whether the approach fits your needs, values, and lived experience. This information is intended to help you get a clearer sense of whether the approach at Kindred Minds aligns with what you’re looking for.

    • Neurodivergent or exploring whether ADHD or autism might be part of your experience.

    • A parent or caregiver seeking affirming support for a neurodivergent child or teen.

    • An adult seeking clarity, self-understanding, or support later in life.

    • Navigating anxiety, overwhelm, burnout, or emotional regulation challenges.

    • Looking for care that considers identity, relationships, and systems—not just symptoms.

    • Seeking a quick fix, rigid program, or compliance-based approach.

    • Looking for therapy or assessment that minimizes identity, context, or lived experience.

    • Needing an evaluation specifically for IEP eligibility, disability determinations, or programs that require psychologist- or physician-only reports.

    • Uncomfortable with a practice that names systemic factors and values transparency.

    • Primarily seeking crisis, inpatient, or emergency services.

    If this doesn’t feel like the right fit, that doesn’t mean support isn’t available—it simply means a different type of care may serve you better. We’re happy to help you think through alternatives or referrals when appropriate.
