Counseling for Autistics

We have providers who have an awareness of the unique challenges Autistic individuals and their families are experiencing.

Autistic children, adolescents, and adults can benefit from behavior therapies to address functioning and co-occurring mental health disorders like depression, anxiety, and ADHD. We also provide services to family members (parents, siblings) to help address the unique stressors of loving Autistics. We are LGBTQ+ friendly and recognize the individuality of those we provide services to. We consult with Pediatricians and other Primary Care Providers, Occupational Therapists, Speech and Language Pathologists, and your child’s school upon request to ensure comprehensive support.

Autism providers: Dr. Stacy (assessment and counseling), Dr. Meggers-Wright (assessment), Emily L (counseling), Erinn M (counseling), and Judy L (counseling).

Analyzing Legend of Korra and Its Depiction of Depression

Image
  With the upcoming Legend of Aang movie later this year, we thought it best to revisit a classic series to help handle the anticipation. The series in question is the Legend of Korra, its original run going from 2012 to 2014, running for four seasons. One of the recurring themes throughout the show is mental health and how the ever shifting world takes its toll on our protagonists. In this post, we will be analyzing the mental health of Korra and what her first severe run in with depression looks like. We’ll be analyzing symptoms and their manifestation, techniques that work to help her heal, and what it looks like for her when she comes out the other side. Spoilers ahead. At the end of season 3, antagonists Zaheer and his friends have kidnapped Korra with the intent of killing her and ending the Avatar cycle (this universe’s version of reincarnation). Despite her and her friends ultimately being able to defeat and imprison Zaheer, the effects of this confrontation last for years ...

Analyzing and Treating Tom Holland’s Peter Parker

Image
  Most of the world is probably familiar with the name Tom Holland. Between playing some of the most iconic roles in cinema to marrying the legendary (and we do mean legendary) Zendaya, his career has been on an upward trajectory since his 2012 debut in  The Impossible . With rumors of a new trailer for  Spider-Man: Brand New Day , we thought it would be fun to deep dive into the character of Peter Parker and analyze what makes this character tick. Additionally, we want to go over a fictional treatment plan for the character, as he has been through enough where it would be beneficial. Spoilers ahead for the first three Spider-Man MCU films (and possible references to the Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire films). Peter Parker first appears in  Captain America: Civil War  (2016) as a high school student keeping his identity on the down low. Nobody is aware of his alter-ego and he is already struggling to keep it that way. Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) pieces toge...

The Euphoric Analysis of Cassie Howard

Image
  With season 3 of Euphoria currently underway, BHC decided now would be the right time to analyze one of the show’s most polarizing characters: Cassie Howard. Starting as a good but troubled young woman and turning into what many would call a “mean girl”, her character evolution is fascinating to watch. Some characters on the show grow and change throughout their run and Cassie is no different. What separates her from the rest of the cast is that her development seems to be taking her down an antagonistic path, rather than growing for the better or earning some sort of redemption. For the purposes of this post, we will be analyzing her character arc and seeing what could be worked on if she went to therapy and what her treatment plan might involve. Cassie starts season 1 as friends to Maddy Perez, Barbara Brookes (BB), Kat Hernandez, and (to a lesser extent) Rue Bennett. She has a crush on Chris McKay and this forms the start of her arc. She struggles to navigate her relationship ...
