Lila Low-Beinart MA, LPC, MHC-LP, is an autistic, gifted, and Highly Sensitive (HSP) psychotherapist, neurodiversity affirming pioneer, and teacher, who brings over thirteen years of teaching experience to this training. She is known for evoking profound emotional and cognitive shifts in her trainees that facilitate meaningful learning and transformation. Her capacity for deep presence, empathy, and insight, honed through over a decade of meditation practice, significantly enriches both her teaching and clinical work.

Her teaching experience spans diverse fields—from pharmaceutical to authentic relating and therapeutic domains—underpinned by four teacher trainings and ongoing professional development at Harvard University's Transforming Health Care Education program, focused on the neuroscience of learning and effective instructional design. This rich background equips her with exceptional skills in group facilitation, communication, and creating engaging and impactful learning environments.

In her clinical work, Lila specializes in neurodiversity-affirming care, integrating contemplative, parts-based, and somatic approaches that validate and celebrate neurodivergent ways of being. Her practice is deeply informed by her lived experience, as well as the insights of her clients and neurodivergent colleagues and friends.

Drawing on a previous career as a pharmaceutical chemist, where she authored multiple peer-reviewed studies and taught internationally, Lila also brings a robust analytical perspective to her work.
