Individual & Family Counseling

EvoLibri is dedicated to enriching the lives of our neurodiverse clientele through case management, psychoeducation, counseling & advocacy so that our clients can attain his/her life goals. We work in a multidisciplinary approach providing direct and referred services to help our clients and their families.

Psychoeducation, Counseling & Case Management

Neurodiverse individuals (those with High Functioning Autism, Asperger Syndrome, Non-Verbal Learning Disorders, Attention Deficit Disorders, or anxiety/mood disorders) face transitional, family, social. educational and career challenges different than any other group of individuals.

At EvoLibri, we want our clients to reach their personal life goals. To that end, our intake process not only assesses where a client is right now, but identifies where the client wants to go -- and together we develop a realistic, workable, step-by-step plan to attain those goals. We also know that neurodiverse clients frequently have several areas that need to be addressed simultaneously and over time -- anxiety or mood disturbances, issues in the family, vocational or career decisions, post-secondary educational planning, ongoing social skills work, and training for independence.
