Intro

Hi! My name is Thanusha Neelapareddy and I am a clinical psychologist, licensed in Texas and PsyPact. PsyPact allows me to see clients via Telehealth in 40+ states. I completed most of my training in pediatric hospitals, which gave me extensive experience in assessing and understanding autism across the lifespan, including in adults. As a South Asian woman, I bring a culturally responsive approach to my practice addressing the unique needs of individuals from diverse backgrounds while fostering personal growth.

What motivated you to specialize in working with autistic adults?

I am drawn to working with autistic and neurodivergent clients because of my personal connection to this community, as I have a family member who is autistic and many others who are neurodivergent. As neurodivergence is often overlooked in adults, I am passionate about creating a validating space where clients feel understood, supported, and empowered to embrace their unique identities and thrive.

How do you bring a strengths-based, affirming approach to your client work?

My experience working in hospitals has deepened my passion for helping people understand themselves, their needs, and their strengths. Using evidence and strengths-based approaches helps empower clients to navigate difficulties while honoring their individuality. I hope to foster self-acceptance so clients can embrace their authentic selves and thrive.
