Aaron Edmiston, LPC

I’ve lived with Tourette syndrome my entire life. For years, I managed it and learned to adapt. But the moment my son started having tics, everything changed. Suddenly, it wasn't just about me anymore—it felt urgent, and as his dad, I wanted to get him the right help right away.

That was when I hit a wall.

While our community has many great general counselors, finding a professional with specific, evidence-based training in tic disorders was almost impossible. Navigating that gap—both personally as someone living with Tourette syndrome and as a father looking for answers for my child—showed me how badly our community needed specialized care.

That experience is the heart behind Blueprint Therapy Services. I wanted to build the practice I wished had existed for my own family: a place where parents can find real expertise right here at home. To make sure I could offer the highest quality of care to the families I serve, I made a commitment to seek out specialized training in Tic Disorders, ADHD, and OCD.

A Collaborative, Family-Centered Approach

If you are feeling overwhelmed, exhausted by generic advice, or unsure of how to best support your child, I want you to know you don't have to figure it out alone—and there is a path forward.

My work is built around empowering you as a parent. Rather than working with your child alone, I collaborate with the entire family. I have found that without parent support back home, the work we do in the therapy room simply does not stick. I work to educate both you and your child on how specific disorders work, and I teach you the exact skills and strategies we use in therapy so you feel confident guiding your child at home.

Because a child’s life touches many spaces, I also work to align the key people in their support system:

• For Adults & Couples: Partnering with spouses and loved ones to translate therapy strategies into everyday relationship dynamics and household routines.

• For Families & Children: Equipping parents and caregivers with a practical toolkit for home support, behavioral training, and daily executive function coaching.

• Schools & Educators: Aligning classroom accommodations and academic strategies with direct clinical goals.

• Medical Professionals: Coordinating directly with doctors and specialists to keep your overall care plan connected.

Building a Path Toward Independence

While there are no simple quick fixes for neurodevelopmental conditions, real relief happens when deep understanding meets practical action. Gaining the education to truly understand how your brain works—paired with targeted strategies to shape daily behavior—is life-changing. I know this firsthand.

My goal is never to keep families in therapy indefinitely. Instead, we work along a structured roadmap designed to build skills, lower stress, and foster long-term independence.

My hope is that you and your child walk away feeling deeply understood, fully equipped with practical tools, and confident in your steps forward.
