If you or a loved one is seeking specialized care for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), South Psychology is here to support you. Our center is dedicated to understanding and addressing the unique needs of individuals with ASD. Here’s what you can expect:
Comprehensive Assessment: Our experienced psychologists conduct thorough assessments to understand your specific challenges, strengths, and developmental history. We use evidence-based tools and interviews to evaluate communication skills, social interactions, sensory sensitivities, and behavioral patterns. Early diagnosis is crucial, as it allows for timely intervention and personalized treatment planning.
Personalized Treatment Plans: At South Psychology, we believe in a holistic approach. Our interdisciplinary team collaborates to create tailored treatment plans. We work closely with educators, speech therapists, and occupational therapists to address various aspects of ASD. Individualized interventions focus on communication, social skills, behavior management, and adaptive functioning.

Our team helps families navigate challenges, develop coping strategies, and build a supportive environment at home. We empower families to advocate for their loved ones and access community resources.

Rosemarie Manfredi
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I am a neuropsychologist with extensive expertise in the evaluation and diagnosis of autism spectrum disorders throughout the lifespan. In my practice, I am able to do diagnostic evaluations for ages 2.5 and up, including into adulthood. I offer a range of evaluation types depending on age and needs, from a diagnostic evaluation designed to determine whether someone has an ASD to a very comprehensive evaluation that assesses the impact of ASD (and any other comorbid difficulties) on learning, development, and behavioral functioning. By providing an in-depth understanding of the person with an ASD, I can make specific and individualized recommendations for educational, career, and treatment settings. I also offer career assessments and guidance for individuals with ASDs in order to help identify careers that match their interests, skills, and abilities.

Allison Freeman
Counselor/Therapist, LCMHCA
I create a welcoming and accepting environment where clients can explore their experiences, recognizing the challenges posed by a world that may undervalue their lived experiences and vital needs.
In our sessions, we collaboratively explore the specific needs of autistic clients, acknowledging the diverse ways in which neurodivergence manifests. We discuss strategies for navigating a world that may not always prioritize or understand these needs, addressing issues related to avoiding or recovering from autistic burnout, managing isolation, anxiety, etc. and regulating the nervous system.
My focus is on empowering clients to identify and express their needs, promoting self-advocacy and resilience. Together, we work on developing practical strategies for avoiding burnout, fostering safe and important social connections, and navigating overwhelming/difficult environments with more confidence and success.
The goal is to celebrate neurodiversity while enhancing my client's overall well-being living with autism.
