Speech-Language Pathologist
Mary Coburn (she/her)
As a neurodivergent provider I know first hand the rewards and challenges that come with raising neurodivergent children. Through my own lived experiences I am able to better understand and empathize with a child's struggles and strengths. I believe that by creating safe spaces for open communication and collaboration, and with ongoing advocacy, we can help a child navigate their differences with confidence and with a strong sense of self.
Ann Clawson (she/her)
SYNC Member
Pediatric Neuropsychologist
My work is informed by a rich understanding of evidence-based practice and brain-behavior relationships, while also prioritizing personal lived experiences. I value collaborative, affirming care. I seek to create a space where youth and families can ask vulnerable and challenging questions and find support. My evaluations provide insight into strengths and vulnerabilities, empowering youth and families with knowledge and tools.

Co-Founding Member
Occupational Therapist
I have worked in both medical and school settings. Becoming a parent, embracing my own family's neurodiversity, and connecting with my clients has guided my practice as an occupational therapist. I address all areas of participation difficulty - developmental skills, activities of daily living, self-regulation, independent living skills and community participation. I specialize in pediatrics and sensory integration.
Claire Runge (she/her)
SYNC Member
Speech-Language Pathologist
I prioritize connection over compliance. Gestalt language processors are of particular interest to me, as is working with autistic children and their families to grow self-generated language. I meet my clients and families where they are and use a strengths-based approaches to speech-language development. I enjoy working closely with families to address their goals while honoring their child's uniqueness.
Alexis Roberson (she/her)
SYNC Member
Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist
Navigating neurodivergence in a family can be tricky! In some cases, mental health is impacted, and things become even more complex. Many of the traditional approaches to parenting can send everyone into a tailspin, with an increase in stress, frustration, and overwhelm. With rich personal experience parenting in a neurodivergent household, in addition to a long career of compassionately supporting families in my psychotherapy practice, I pride myself on being a person who understands the intricacies of neurodiversity and actively fosters inclusivity and empowerment. Let’s do this!

Licensed Mental Health Counselor
Approved Clinical Supervisor
Registered Play Therapist
As a Registered Play Therapist, AutPlay Provider and Licensed Mental Health Counselor, as well as managing neurodiversity in my own household, I have been immersed in this culture for over 2 decades. I use a wide variety of therapeutic methods to help clients and families meet their goals. My focus is about connecting with the needs of the child before trying to correct behaviors. Behavior is communication and all children deserve to be heard. It's an honor to be on this journey with so many!
