Monica Mikkelsen- LPCC | Therapy for Neurodivergent Adults

Hi, I’m Monica, and I love working with diverse clients from all walks of life. Diversity and authenticity are central to both my identity and my clinical work. I am Danish American, autistic, ADHD, and a highly sensitive person (HSP). Growing up between cultures and navigating the world as a late-identified neurodivergent individual led to various challenges and a deep curiosity around identity, languages, cultures, and human behavior.

I’m passionate about supporting adults, particularly autistic individuals, ADHD’ers, as well as various forms of anxiety, relational challenges, trauma, shame, guilt, anger, low self-esteem, grief, and loneliness. I also enjoy working with men, older clients, gender diverse folx, and BIPOC folx.

When we diverge from the “norm,” the messaging we receive can lead to an overall sense of rejection from society. This can be confusing, heartbreaking, and exhausting to navigate. I strongly believe in supporting people through a neurodiversity-affirming lens, embracing neurological differences as a natural and valuable human variance.

I strive to provide a warm, safe, and collaborative space, meeting each individual in their unique experiences and needs. I lean into various modalities and tools, including person-centered therapy, strength-based therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), emotion focused therapy (EFT), and mindfulness practices, among others. Whether you are here to seek help in navigating life, discovering or further exploring your identities, I will meet you with empathy, a gentle curiosity, and resources. I look forward to getting to know you and helping you reconnect with your intrinsic strengths and resilience.

Jeg tilbyder også terapi til dansktalende klienter.
