Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) affects how a person communicates, interacts socially, and experiences the world. Whether you’re seeking a diagnosis, navigating challenges, or building on strengths, The Summit Counseling Center offers tailored support for children, teens, adults, and families living with autism. Our goal is to help clients thrive in their own way — with confidence, connection, and clarity.

- Struggle with social interactions, eye contact, or forming relationships
- Prefer routine and find changes overwhelming
- Have intense interests or focus on specific topics

- Struggle with emotional regulation or managing frustration
- Want support for independence, communication, or daily living skills
