Eoin Stephens on Autism, Therapy & Identity
Show notes
In Episode 4 of Season 4, Katie and AnnMarie are joined by a familiar face from the Inner Therapy team – Eoin Stephens, an experienced psychotherapist, supervisor, and educator with over 30 years in the fields of mental health, addiction, and disability.
Eoin brings a deeply personal and professional lens to this conversation, sharing insights from his own experience as a late-discovery autistic adult. His current work focuses on the unique challenges and therapeutic needs of autistic individuals who receive a diagnosis later in life – often after years of masking, misunderstanding, and misdiagnosis.
Together, they explore what it means to understand yourself anew, how therapy can evolve to meet neurodiverse needs, and the importance of creating space for individual experience in mental health care.
This episode is a rich and thoughtful listen for anyone interested in neurodiversity, autism, or the evolving role of therapy in understanding ourselves and others.
