Meet Dr. Rebecca Martinez

Dr. Rebecca Martinez is a licensed psychologist dedicated to supporting neurodivergent adults, particularly those who have been overlooked, misdiagnosed, or misunderstood earlier in life. Her practice is deeply attuned to the unique experiences of individuals discovering their autistic identity in adulthood, often after years of navigating life without a clear explanation for their differences.

A tenured faculty member at a major research university in the Midwest, Dr. Martinez teaches graduate-level courses in diagnostic assessment, counseling theory, and intervention. She also supervises the clinical training of master’s and doctoral students, helping shape the next generation of compassionate, evidence-based, and neuroaffirming mental health professionals.

Dr. Martinez brings a distinctive perspective informed by both clinical expertise and relational experience within the neurodivergent/autistic community. She affirms self-identification as neurodivergent, whether or not someone chooses to pursue a formal diagnosis. For those who do, she offers comprehensive adult autism evaluations that provide clarity, validation, and documentation.

Licensed to practice psychology in multiple states through interjurisdictional authority, Dr. Martinez makes her services accessible to adults across the United States. She is highly experienced with the DSM-5-TR™ and adept at recognizing how autism presents in adults without intellectual disability. Whether you're seeking answers, affirmation, or a deeper understanding of yourself, Dr. Martinez offers a respectful, collaborative, and neurodiversity-affirming evaluation process, grounded in clinical knowledge and genuine care.
