Neurodivergence refers to variations in the way individuals' brains function and process information. This term encompasses a wide range of neurodevelopmental conditions, including autism spectrum disorder (ASD), attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), dyslexia, and other learning differences. At Amethyst Mental Health & Wellness, LLC, we recognize and support individuals who identify as neurodivergent, offering compassionate care that honors their unique strengths and challenges.
NEURODIVERGENCE
Recognizing Signs of Neurodivergence
Identifying neurodivergence can be complex, as it manifests differently in each individual. However, there are common signs and symptoms that may indicate neurodivergence, such as difficulties with social interactions, sensory sensitivities, challenges with organization and time management, and atypical patterns of behavior or communication. If you or a loved one experience persistent difficulties in these areas, it may be beneficial to seek an evaluation by a qualified mental health professional at Amethyst Mental Health & Wellness, LLC.

A thorough assessment is essential for accurately diagnosing neurodivergence. At Amethyst Mental Health & Wellness, LLC, our team of experienced clinicians conducts comprehensive evaluations to assess cognitive, emotional, and behavioral functioning.

Tailored Treatment and Support
