Lydia Stellwag
(She/Her/Hers)
Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW)
I am dedicated to providing neurodiversity-affirming care. As a queer, autistic, ADHD self-advocate, I take pride in creating a safe space for my clients.
My goal as a therapist is ultimately to provide compassionate guidance and assist clients in achieving personal growth and well-being. By drawing from various methodologies, I tailor my sessions to meet the specific needs of individuals, teenagers, and young adults. I approach all modalities with a trauma informed lens. Clients of all backgrounds and identities are welcome in my practice.
