Our Services

Sessions are provided onsite at the Social Connections clinic at 1580 W El Camino Real in Mountain View, CA, at the client’s school, or via telehealth. Ashlee believes in a neurodiversity affirming approach to therapy, supporting her clients to identify their own social goals, advocate for their wants and needs, and collaborate to create a therapy plan that will help them reach those goals.
