Neurodivergent Therapy in Cornwall

Cornwall is a community surrounded by nature, connection, and steady growth. With the St. Lawrence River flowing through the city, the vibrancy of St. Lawrence College, and the calm of Lamoureux Park, life here moves at a pace that invites both opportunity and reflection. For neurodivergent adults and teens, that rhythm can sometimes feel challenging to navigate. At Tiny Therapy Collective, our therapists provide affirming, evidence-based Therapy for Neurodivergence for individuals living with Autism Spectrum Disorder, Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), learning differences, or sensory sensitivities.

We help clients strengthen focus, manage stress, and create systems that support both structure and flexibility. Whether you are a student, a parent, or someone seeking a more balanced routine, therapy can help you build confidence and self-understanding while working toward meaningful goals.

“Your mind is not a barrier to overcome. It’s a landscape to understand and care for.”

How Neurodivergent Therapy Can Help

Neurodivergent therapy offers a supportive space to explore how your mind works, how stress affects you, and what strategies help you thrive. Many clients seek therapy after years of feeling misunderstood, overworked, or uncertain about how to balance expectations with self-care. Others want guidance to better manage executive functioning, emotional regulation, or burnout.

Our therapists work collaboratively to help you:

• Improve organization, planning, and focus

• Build self-compassion and reduce self-criticism

• Understand emotional patterns and triggers

• Manage sensory sensitivities and stress responses

• Create sustainable routines that reflect your natural rhythms

Therapy helps you move toward acceptance and confidence while learning strategies that make life more manageable and meaningful.

Evidence-Based Approaches We Use

At Tiny Therapy Collective, we integrate proven, research-based therapies that support neurodivergent clients in developing emotional resilience and everyday balance.

• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT): CBT helps you identify and reframe negative thought patterns that contribute to stress and self-doubt, encouraging clearer, more balanced perspectives.

• Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT): DBT provides mindfulness, emotional-regulation, distress-tolerance, and communication skills that reduce overwhelm and support stability.

• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): ACT focuses on accepting thoughts and emotions while acting in alignment with your personal values.

• Internal Family Systems (IFS): IFS helps you understand the different parts of yourself that hold emotions, beliefs, or fears, building self-awareness and compassion.

• Strengths-Based and Trauma-Informed Care: Our trauma-informed, strengths-based approach emphasizes safety, empowerment, and dignity. We view neurodiversity as a meaningful and important part of human experience.

Each client’s therapy plan is personalized to reflect their strengths, communication style, and goals.

Everyday Supports

We focus on helping you turn insights from therapy into practical, manageable tools for daily life.

1. Create external systems: Use planners, timers, or visual cues to support focus and reduce mental fatigue.

2. Prioritize rest and recovery: Learn how to prevent burnout by balancing effort with downtime.

3. Identify sensory needs: Adjust environments for comfort by recognizing what overstimulates or calms you.

4. Celebrate progress: Acknowledge small wins and growth, building self-confidence through self-compassion.

These everyday strategies help you feel more grounded, whether you are studying at St. Lawrence College, working locally, or enjoying time along the St. Lawrence River.

If you are also managing challenges such as anxiety, depression, or burnout, explore our related services including Anxiety Therapy, Depression Therapy, and Stress and Burnout for additional support.
