Programs
Three ways of working, each with a stated shape and a stated end.
Nothing here is open-ended. Every program has a fixed cadence and a review point at which stopping is a normal outcome rather than a failure.
Program one
Adolescents, 11 to 18
We work on the parts of the week that reliably fall apart: mornings, transitions, homework that never begins, and the aftermath of a bad day at school. The young person sets at least one of the goals, or we do not have goals.
Who it is for
Autistic young people aged 11 to 18, diagnosed or not. A formal diagnosis is not required and I do not ask for a report.
Shape
Every other week, 50 minutes, remote. Six sessions, then a review.
Parents
Included by agreement with the young person, who is told exactly what will be discussed.
Program two
Autistic adults
Work, disclosure, burnout recovery, and the long arithmetic of running four compensating strategies at once to hold down a job. Sessions can be audio only, camera off, or conducted entirely in writing if speech is expensive for you.
Who it is for
Autistic adults, including self-identified adults and people waiting for assessment.
Shape
Every other week or monthly, 60 minutes.
Format
Video, audio only, or asynchronous in writing.
Program three
Parents and caregivers
For the meetings, the paperwork, the sibling who is quietly struggling, and the question of how long you can keep doing this. Your child does not need to attend, agree, or know about this work.
Who it is for
Parents, caregivers, grandparents, and foster parents of autistic children and young people. One or two adults per block.
Shape
A block of six sessions, 50 minutes each, usually every other week.
What we cover
Preparing for IEP and 504 meetings, deciding which battles are worth having, and building a week that does not depend on you having a good day.
