In this episode of The Spiritually Curious Therapist, I’m joined once again by the wise and compassionate Ayla Ault for part two of our conversation on supporting neurodivergent clients—particularly those who are late-diagnosed and high-masking.
Together, we explore the healing potential of weaving clinical skill with intuitive, holistic presence. We talk about the deeply personal ways neurodivergent individuals experience the world, through unique communication styles, sensory sensitivities, and inner landscapes that are often overlooked or misunderstood.
We also explore how special interests and affirming communities—like Dungeons & Dragons, BDSM, and spiritual groups can become vital sources of safety, identity, and belonging.
This conversation is a heartfelt invitation to meet neurodivergent clients with attuned curiosity, softness, and deep respect so they can feel truly seen, honored, and supported on their healing journey.

The Male Room with Dr. Jesse Mills
As Director of The Men’s Clinic at UCLA, Dr. Jesse Mills has spent his career helping men understand their bodies, their hormones, and their health. Now he’s bringing that expertise to The Male Room — a podcast where data-driven medicine meets common sense. Each episode separates fact from hype, science from snake oil, and gives men the tools to live longer, stronger, and happier lives. With candor, humor, and real-world experience from the exam room and the operating room, Dr. Mills breaks down the latest health headlines, dissects trends, and explains what actually works — and what doesn’t. Smart, straightforward, and entertaining, The Male Room is the show that helps men take charge of their health without the jargon.
