View profileAutism-focused therapy is psychological support adapted to autistic people. It starts from a neurodiversity-affirming view: autism is a different way of experiencing and processing the world, not something to be fixed.
Sessions adapt to your communication style and sensory needs, for example with a clear structure, written summaries or online sessions. The focus is on what you want to work on, such as sensory overload, burnout, anxiety, isolation, a late diagnosis or identity questions.
It can also support partners and families who want to understand autistic experience better. See also autism support.

Neurodiversity-affirming therapy tailored to autistic people’s communication, sensory and emotional needs.

Autism-focused therapy is often used for concerns such as Autism / ASD support, Emotional regulation, Executive dysfunction, Sensory overload, and Social anxiety.
The therapy page also shows which therapists on MIT currently offer this approach.
A first session usually focuses on understanding what brings you to therapy, what you want to change, and whether the therapist’s style feels like a good fit.
You do not need to prepare anything perfect in advance. It is normal to start with questions, uncertainty, or mixed feelings.
This depends on your goals, the complexity of what you are dealing with, and how structured the approach is. Some people use this therapy for short-term focused work, while others stay longer for deeper change.
Availability depends on the therapist. On MIT, you can check the therapist cards and profile pages to see whether online sessions are offered.
Fees vary by therapist. When no live therapist prices are available yet, the usual range for this therapy is around €80–€140 per session.
Start by reading the therapist’s profile, experience, languages, online/in-person availability, and approach. Then check whether the person works with the kind of issue you want help with.
A good fit is often about both expertise and how safe, understood, and comfortable you feel with the therapist.

The public health system covers psychological and psychiatric care through a referral from your family doctor (médico de cabecera), but waiting lists for psychology are often long, so many international residents choose a private psychologist. In Spain, psychologists who provide clinical care hold the title of general health psychologist (psicólogo general sanitario) or clinical psychologist. Private and expat insurances sometimes cover part of the sessions: check your policy. Therapists provide invoices you can submit.
Every therapist sets their own fee, shown on their profile. For reference, the ranges displayed on this site are roughly €80 to €180 per session for most individual therapies, €120 to €220 for couples and family therapy, and €70 to €130 for coaching, career counselling and parenting support. Sessions generally last 50 to 60 minutes.
Therapy is not an emergency service. If you or someone close to you is in danger, call 112. For suicidal thoughts, Spain’s national line 024 is free, confidential and available 24/7.
Look at the approach, the topics each therapist works with, the languages spoken, the format and the fee on their profile. If you are not sure, describe your situation and we will suggest therapists who match your needs. Many people find that the first session tells them a lot about the fit.
