So I am looking for one too - I have been told to basically do a therapist near me search , look at reviews and call them to see if they take your insurance.

ADDitude may have some resources. They often post in their emails about “find a therapist” and they have a website to search. Let me see if I can find it…

I haven't seen a AuDHD for women specialist, and it's a huge need. I have a trauma therapist who isn't experienced in neurodivergence so much, but she's helping with the burnout and honestly I worry what will happen when I end therapy.
