Autistic Women Overcoming Domestic Abuse
Phoenix Within is a community space for Autistic and/or ADHD adult women, whether diagnosed autistic, late diagnosed, or recently diagnosed, who are rebuilding their lives after difficult life experiences.
Why We Exist
Our group was formed due to difficult conversations around exploitation, gaslighting, people pleasing, and broken relationships, the exact topics so often overlooked by mainstream, non-autistic spaces. We speak openly about the heavy weight of social camouflage, trauma-induced demand avoidance, and intense burnout.
What We Offer
We understand that our brains process trauma, parenting, and healing differently. We provide strict emotional safety, deep processing time, and an environment free from forced social rules.
- Therapeutic Activities: Creative writing, art, crafts, music, and mindfulness.
- No Masking Required: You never have to perform or explain how your brain works.
- A Safe Environment: A structured, predictable space to heal on your own terms and at your own pace.
Like the phoenix rising from the ashes, we are taking our shared history and rebuilding our lives together.
Please note that these specific healing sessions are a child free space, but we will have other events to bring your children to in the future.
