Understand Autism Now
The Essential things you need to understand about your child's autistic brain to help you connect, learn and grow together
Understand what Autism is really about so you can get crystal clear about your approach in parenting your child, and also your advocacy and therapy goals.
Who would have thought that it would be this hard?
These challenges are hard to face and they are relentless.
There are no quick fixes or silver bullets when parenting a child with a different brain.
But there is a simpler and more productive way of approaching the experience.
Imagine something different...
With the Understand Autism Now Course, you will be empowered you to support your child better.
- No more staying up at night reading comments to try to find answers...wondering if or how someone else's experience align with yours
- No more yelling or crying in frustration when you don't GET what is causing the meltdown, the resistance, the anger and sadness
- No more searching for language to use when you advocate for your child's needs
Instead imagine clarity that leads to a more compassionate lens. The ability to see things as they truly are - from unmet needs, to processing differences, to overwhelm due to a brain that experiences the world differently. Imagine knowing how to make it easier, and how to support so your child STILL learns and grows.
It's closer than you think...
How does this course deliver on such an important promise?
Autism is not a behavioural disorder, it is a neurological difference.
For far too long (and to the detriment of so many autistic people), the focus has been on changing behaviours, when the focus SHOULD have been on UNDERSTANDING how the autistic brain develops differently.
This has lead to frustrated parents and traumatized autistic children. MORE meltdowns, lower self-esteem, and burn-out for children and parents alike.
This course will break it down for you:
Understand how your child's brain is developing differently
Support your child's differences through accommodations and ND affirming parenting strategies
Know how to help your child grow and learn - as they are - so they can thrive in the world as we know it
Get clear about what you should and shouldn't change.
Know how to support when it can't change.
Know how to guide to facilitate change and growth.
It took me years of studying, experimenting, and so much trial and error to cut through the noise and get to what would really make a difference for parents and their autistic children.
It is hard enough to parent a neurodivergent child as it is WITHOUT having to try to figure it all out yourself.
Learning about this has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. Each family I worked with also helped me be a better parent myself!
You don't need to do the work because I have already done it for you. This is how I give back...by offering this unbelievably valuable information for just $47.
I've been where you are...
My daughter was diagnosed at just 18 months and when all I was presented with were solutions that meant 40 hours of behavioural therapy, I set out to find something better. I decided that I would honour who she was and learn how to support her to be her best self WITHOUT trying to change her.
Yes - it was hard. yes, I dealt with meltdowns, rigidity, inflexibility, executive function challenges, isolation, judgement, school placements not working out, anxiety, failed relationships and more isolation.
Thsi is not easy and it never will be. I will not promise an easy life and a solution to all the struggles because that doesn't exist.
I can promise you though that this way of supporting your child will be empowering to both you and your child. Your child will teach you things you never knew you needed to learn and when YOU change for the better....EVERYTHING shifts.
I hear you asking if this will work for your family, with the challenges YOU are currently facing.
- Children who struggle to succeed at school
- Children who are hard to reach or connect with
- Children who have meltdowns or act out aggressively
- Children who are anxious or depressed and internalize their feelings
- Families who have done many different therapies and nothing sticks
- Families where relationships have become fractured and strained
- Families where parents are exhausted and burnt out
- Families where parents are neurodivergent themselves
What you learn in this course empowers you to be the parent and advocate your child needs you to be.
If you're a parent who...
...wonders why certain situations are impossible for your child to deal with
...is confused by your child's meltdowns that seem to come out of nowhere
...struggles to come up with effective strategies to support your child at school
...is baffled by the seemingly simple things your child finds impossible to do
...wishes you had the language to explain to others how your child experiences the world differently
...wants to understand more about the neurodiversity movement and create a better, more inclusive world for your autistic child
This course is for you.
In this neurodiversity affirming course you will learn:
- What autism is beyond the DSM-V

I'm deeply passionate about supporting families as they navigate challenges together. I hold a Masters degree in Psychology and a B.Soc.Sc in Social Work. For 10 years, I put these degrees to work in London, England, helping kids and their families who faced many tough situations. Just over a decade ago I decided to focus only on autism and immersed myself in the child development and neuroscience research as it relates to parenting and autism in particular. Add to that the impact of trauma and stress on brain integration and I had my hands full!
I started supporting parents of autistic children and haven't looked back. I find it truly rewarding to work alongside such determined parents and their incredible children.
