Autism, also known as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), is a group of neurodevelopmental disorders that impact your ability to interact socially and communicate effectively. While some think of autism as a disease that can’t be improved, focused therapy can significantly improve the condition.

No matter how severe symptoms are among the Autism spectrum, an experienced therapist can help you better understand yourself, your needs, and what you can do to improve your quality of life. Whether you are located in downtown Orlando, Audubon Park, Baldwin Park, Delaney Park, or even Johnson Village, Mental Health Match can help you easily find an experienced therapist or counselor who best meets your needs.
