Dandelion Spirit Neurodevelopmental Clinic

05/12/2026

We've built something new - and it's finally ready to share.

Our new website is up, and it's a much better reflection of who we are, how we work, and what we actually believe about this work. Whether you're a family trying to figure out if we're the right fit, a provider looking to refer, a clinician looking for a new place to practice, or just curious what a neurodiversity-affirming, multidisciplinary clinic actually looks like in practice - come take a look.

We think you'll feel the difference.

We are neurodiversity and LGBTQ+ affirming, trauma-informed providers who work with children, adolescents, and adults to live easier, better, more fulfilled lives (whatever that means to and for YOU and YOUR family). We are client-centered, which means we are focused on what matters most to you and....

At Dandelion Spirit, we don't treat neurodiversity, trauma responses, or LGBTQ+ identities as problems to be solved - and we don't hire clinicians who do either. We're looking for providers who have done enough of their own work to sit alongside complexity without rushing it, who understand that "evidence-based" and "nervous-system-informed" aren't in conflict, and who believe that a child melting down or a family in crisis deserves curiosity before judgment. If you've ever felt like the systems you trained in weren't built for the clients you care most about - and you've been quietly building a different framework anyway - this is a place where that framework has a home. Here, you won't spend your energy defending your clinical lens or translating your instincts into language that fits a more conventional mold. You'll have the support, the consultation, and the colleagues who already speak that language - so you can put that energy where it belongs: into the work.
