What Other's Are Saying After Getting The Guide...

I tried the bath time routine the same night. He didn't suddenly make eye contact. But he stayed longer than usual, and at one point he looked at my face and smiled at the rubber duck and when I made a funny sound, he looked at me and smiled!

I know that sounds small. but to me it felt like everything.

A PERSONAL NOTE

Hey! I'm Katie

I'm a Board Certified Behavior Analyst(BCBA) and Early Start Denver Model (ESDM) trained therapist with 25 years of experience supporting hundreds of families through the autism diagnosis

And 3 years ago,I became the autism mom.

He was diagnosed with autism just before his fourth birthday.

But long before that, he didn't really want to play with me. And when he did, it felt distant, focused on toys and not me. Not connected. Not shared.

That's not all, everyday routines, mealtimes, transitions, bath time, getting dressed felt like walking on eggshells.

We were already deep in the waiting process.Sleep specialists, SLP referrals, evaluation waitlists, and in the middle of all of it, deep down I knew it was autism, but we had no definite answers.

Then I hit a moment I'll never forget.

I was crying, feeling rejected, feeling like I was failing my own child, and I was supposed to be the expert.

That's when I said something to myself that changed everything:

"Katie. You know what to do, You are the expert in social connection, playful routines, and supporting behavior, You don't need an autism diagnosis. You don't need anyone's permission to show up differently, so stop waiting and start".

So I did, and EVERYTHING SHIFTED and life became much more easier, peaceful and joyful.

We had a feeling at two, diagnosis came at four, services wouldn't have started until five. I would have missed THREE critical years if I had waited.

You don't have to. You can start now, diagnosis or not, and I'm here to show you exactly how.

See you inside, Katie
