Helping caregivers, neurodivergent individuals, and women create lives that honor their strengths, needs, and authentic selves.
Therapy Philosophy:
Many people spend so much time caring for others that they lose sight of themselves. Whether you’re supporting a loved one with autism or an intellectual or developmental disability, balancing endless responsibilities, feeling emotionally exhausted, or constantly putting everyone else’s needs before your own, it can be difficult to find space to breathe, recharge, or simply ask yourself, “What do I need?”
Georgie Provance helps individuals move beyond survival mode and reconnect with themselves. She is especially passionate about working with caregivers, helping professionals, high-achieving women, and neurodivergent individuals who feel overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or stuck in patterns of people-pleasing, perfectionism, and self-sacrifice.
Drawing from her extensive background in social work and nonprofit leadership, Georgie understands the unique challenges that come with caring for others. She has spent much of her career supporting individuals and families navigating intellectual and developmental disabilities, including autism spectrum disorder. She understands the emotional weight caregivers often carry and provides compassionate, practical support to help them reduce burnout, strengthen boundaries, and care for themselves without guilt.
Georgie also has a specialty in working with autistic adolescents and adults using a neurodivergent-affirming approach. Rather than viewing autism through a deficit-based lens, she embraces neurodiversity and helps clients better understand themselves, navigate relationships, manage stress and sensory experiences, strengthen self-advocacy, and build lives that align with their unique strengths, values, and needs. She creates an accepting, supportive environment where clients can be themselves without feeling pressured to mask or change who they are.
Her therapeutic approach is warm, collaborative, strengths-based, and empowering. Georgie helps clients recognize unhealthy relational patterns, develop healthier boundaries, and reconnect with their own values, voice, and identity. She believes meaningful change happens when individuals feel deeply understood while also being gently challenged to grow.
In addition to traditional talk therapy, Georgie incorporates creative and experiential approaches, including Sand Tray Therapy, to help clients explore emotions, relationships, and life experiences in ways that may feel more natural and accessible. She continues to expand her training through ongoing education and clinical supervision, ensuring clients receive thoughtful, evidence-informed care.
Clients often describe Georgie as approachable, calming, genuine, and deeply compassionate. She creates a space where people feel safe to be themselves while gaining practical tools, greater confidence, and a renewed sense of balance.
