I’m Dr. Lindsey Carter, a licensed occupational therapist based in Richmond, VA and the founder of Soluna Therapy Collective. I started this practice to create a space where neurodivergent youth and young adults feel seen, supported, and empowered through community-based, mental health-informed care.
My background spans pediatric, behavioral health, and school-based settings, and I’m especially passionate about supporting executive functioning, emotional regulation, and sensory integration. I’m also deeply engaged in advocacy and education—currently serving as Vice President of the Virginia Occupational Therapy Association and frequently speaking on topics like trauma-informed care and the role of OT in mental health.
What I love most about this work is helping clients uncover their strengths and feel confident navigating daily life. I’m honored to walk alongside each person on their journey—and I’m so glad you’re here.

Executive Function Coach
Hi, I am Crystal and I specialize in working with neurodivergent teens and adults. As a neurodivergent human myself I know the struggles of living in a neurotypical world.
In my late 20’s I learned self-acceptance and the best ways to manage my own executive dysfunction and trauma with the help of a coach much like myself.
I have been mentoring teens and young adults with this very thing for the past 11 years. With a B.A. in Theatre, an M.S. in Psychology, and a background in positive behavioral support, and executive functioning coaching. I offer a creative, collaborative, and exciting mentoring experience while also giving my mentees respect, acceptance, patience, and a listening ear. I strive to assist adolescents and young adults in developing coping skills to navigate some of the most challenging life circumstances. Over the past 11 years, I have played a major role in many success stories and I would be honored to help you reach your full potential.
