A soft landing space for neurodivergent minds.
Therapy gives you the insight. SOLA integrates it into your life.
Psychoeducation and community for neurodivergent adults. Built for the messy middle between therapy and real life; between knowing what to do and actually doing it. Alongside therapy, or on its own. A safe space to practice what you’ve learned, with people whose brains work like yours.
Therapy gives you the insight. SOLA is where it becomes a habit, week after week. It is education and community, not therapy, coaching, or crisis care.
What a week in SOLA looks like. Monday, a 90-minute live learning session on how neurodivergent brains actually work: executive function, regulation, relationships. Wednesday, a Community Circle to talk it through with people who get it. Friday, a Practice Lab to try it, out loud, with others in the room. Between sessions, the Brain Library and SOLA’s guide hold what you learned. No streaks, no homework, nothing to catch up on.
Psychoeducation and community for neurodivergent adults.
SOLA is a $79-a-month membership for autistic, ADHD, AuDHD, and otherwise neurodivergent adults: three live sessions a week, a library of tools, and a community that stays between them. Self-identified or formally diagnosed, both belong here. The first Monday session of every month is free, so you can see it before you pay for it.
SOLA is for you if any of this sounds like your week
- You’re autistic, ADHD, AuDHD, or wired in a way that’s never quite fit the standard advice
- You understand yourself better than you used to, and still can’t get the week to work
- Therapy gave you the insight, and the week still doesn’t change
- You want to learn with people who get it, not explain yourself from scratch
- You’d like tools you can actually use, not another system you abandon by Thursday
Who gets the most from it
Members who tend to feel the biggest shift.
- Adults in the gap between knowing and doing, which is where executive function lives
- People who learn well by hearing the science, then practicing it with support
- Anyone who does better with company than with willpower
- Those who want to move at their own pace, without streaks, scores, or catching up
- People looking for something ongoing, not a course that ends
And what SOLA isn’t
Not therapy, not coaching, not a crisis service. SOLA is psychoeducation and community. It sits alongside the care you already have, or stands on its own.
Between sessions, SOLA’s guide.
Members tell it what’s happening, in their own words, and it answers only from SOLA’s materials: the framework, the Brain Library, and the tools they have saved. One next step, and the handout behind it. Not a list.

Built from SOLA’s materials
Not a person, and not therapy or crisis support. It says so on its first screen, never discusses medication or diagnosis, and if a message sounds like someone is in danger it stops and points to a person. How it works · Our safety practice

Why a group.
Therapy gives you the insight. It is not built to give you community. SOLA is a weekly group of neurodivergent adults, learning how their brains work and practicing it together in a safe space. The research says a group teaches as well as one-on-one, and it gives you the one thing a private session cannot: other people whose brains work like yours, saying “me too.”
Groups teach as well as one-on-one
A group is not the lesser option.Across 46 head-to-head trials, learning in a group produced the same outcomes as one-on-one.
It works for ADHD adults, specifically
Measured, not assumed.In a 2025 trial, a ten-week psychoeducation group for adults with ADHD improved quality of life on top of the care people already had.
Being around people like you cuts loneliness
The other people are part of what works.More than half of neurodivergent adults say they feel less lonely around other neurodivergent adults.

The SOLA Framework, in four movements
Understand
Every behavior makes sense.Before we can change anything, we have to understand it: neurodivergence, executive function, and how the nervous system regulates.
→ TwoSupport
Reduce friction and create safety.Rest, boundaries, accommodations, and sensory needs that honor how you're wired.
→ ThreeConnect
Healing happens in relationship.Practice vulnerability, communication, and belonging in spaces that feel safe.
→ FourBuild
Create a life that fits your brain.Values, work, relationships, and sustainable systems that actually hold.
→“Curiosity is one of the deepest forms of love.”
Founded by Leah Hunter, MAMFT
Leah built SOLA because she needed it herself. She is neurodivergent, trained in marriage and family therapy (MAMFT), and spent years studying executive function, the nervous system, and why insight alone rarely changes a week. The SOLA Framework is the result: Understand, Support, Connect, Build.
In SOLA, Leah is an educator and facilitator, not anyone’s therapist.
What SOLA believes
Every brain makes sense.
Behavior is meaningful.
Healing happens through understanding before judgment.
Community changes nervous systems.
Progress matters more than perfection.
Understanding creates possibility.
