Neurodivergent Therapy Denver, CO

How Neurodivergent Therapy at The Consultation Room Works

If you’re neurodivergent, you may experience the world in ways that others don’t always understand. Overstimulation, sensory sensitivity, and social burnout can take a toll, leaving you feeling chronically dysregulated.

At The Consultation Room Neurodivergent Therapy is different from traditional talk therapy because it offers:

• Nervous System Regulation for Sensory Overload: Learn how to downshift from fight-or-flight into a calmer, more grounded state.

• Sensory Integration: Gently explore sensory processing patterns and develop skills to soothe overstimulation.

• Emotional Regulation: Recognize how emotions show up in your body and create new responses to stress or overstimulation.

• Release of Stored Trauma: Trauma often lives in the body. Somatic therapy helps you safely release physical and emotional tension.

• Increased Self-Compassion: Develop a deeper connection with yourself by tuning into your body’s cues with kindness and respect.

How Neurodivergent Therapy at The Consultation Room DOES NOT Work

We do not practice or promote behavioral therapies that aim to control behavior, mask neurodivergence, or encourage conformity. Instead we help you understand yourself and your unique needs. Neurodivergence is not something that needs to be “treated,” but neurodivergent individuals often need support and accommodation due to living in a world designed for neurotypical individuals. Neurodivergent people may experience marginalization or bullying leading to the development of maladaptive beliefs about the self, and experience emotional distress in response to these social experiences.

Navigating Neurodivergence with Trauma Therapy

Neurodivergence often gets mistaken for anxiety, depression, ADHD, but neurodivergent pain is deeper. It’s trauma. Just as being a minority often can be.

Why Therapy Can Be Challenging for Neurodivergent Minds

When you’re neurodivergent or living with trauma, your inner world may feel complex and difficult to share. You might carry a rich, intricate inner life while struggling to express your emotions outwardly. Or you may feel disconnected from yourself, uncertain how to untangle the deeper patterns driving overwhelm, burnout, or emotional shutdown.
