Lily Duffy, LCSW, AuDHD - IFS Therapy for High Masking + Late-Identified Neurodivergent Adults
You’re exhausted from a lifetime of masking, and from the self-doubt, criticism, confusion, and feelings of alienation that live underneath the mask. You’ve always felt different from others—you wish you didn’t have to feel everything so deeply, that you weren’t as easily overwhelmed by the “small” things in life, that you could get stuff done, make decisions, and frankly just function without it taking an incredible amount of effort. You’re past the point of burnout or quickly approaching it. More than anything, you want to trust yourself, feel more confident & less overwhelmed, and build a meaningful life that nourishes and sustains you instead of trapping you in a never-ending cycle of burnout.
I’m Lily, an AuDHD therapist in Colorado. I help high masking and late-identified neurodivergent adults finally trust and befriend themselves, and learn to honor their needs so they can reduce overwhelm and design a life they don’t have to recover from. I offer a compassionate, judgment-free, neurodivergent-affirming space where all parts of you are welcome and valued (even the parts you hate!) Together we’ll create a safe container where you can heal old wounds, accept long-rejected parts of yourself, and build a life that supports and embraces your neurotype rather than requiring you to mask 24/7.
As an AuDHDer in recovery from CPTSD and OCD who’s been committed to my own therapy and healing work for more than a decade, I come to this work with deep understanding, compassion, and empathy for what it’s like to be in the client seat. You can expect me to show up as a fellow neurodivergent human who’s struggled with many of the same issues, and to bring insights, learnings, and tools from my own lived experience into our work together (when it’s helpful for you).
I’m an IFS Level 2 Trained Therapist and Brainspotting Level 2 Trained Therapist with extensive experience helping neurodivergent clients heal from trauma and resolve deep-seated emotional pain, fear, exhaustion, and hopelessness. My approach celebrates neurodivergence, is LGBTQIA+ and disability affirming, upholds anti-racism and body liberation/fat acceptance/HAES, is sex, kink, and BDSM positive, sex worker affirming, & supports non-monogamy, polyamory, and other alternative relationship structures. While our therapy goals will be specific to your needs, my foundational aim is to support you in moving through life with more ease, joy, confidence, and connection.
