What is an Autism Coach
As an autism coach, my goal is to support families and individuals on the autism spectrum in navigating the unique challenges that come with autism. I work closely with parents, caregivers, and directly with the individual to create personalized strategies that fit their specific needs. Whether it’s improving communication, building social skills, managing behavior, or tackling daily routines, I’m here to provide the tools and guidance that can make life a little easier.
I help parents understand their child’s behavior and offer practical advice on finding the right resources, advocating for services, and creating an environment where their child can grow and thrive. We focus on things like managing sensory sensitivities, building independence, and creating positive routines that fit your family’s lifestyle.
What I love about autism coaching is that it’s flexible—whether we meet in person or virtually, we’ll work together to make sure that no matter where you are, you feel supported and empowered to help your child succeed.
