    What To Do After Your Child Is Diagnosed With Autism

    If your child has just been diagnosed with autism, you might be thinking… now what? In this video I'm sharing what actually happens after the diagnosis, from the emotional rollercoaster of the meeting itself to the practical next steps with school, EHCP or IDP conversations, paperwork, financial support and protecting your own mental health. I've been through this four times with my own children, and I know how overwhelming that day can feel. An autism diagnosis does not change your child. It gives you data. And data helps you support them better.

    IWaiting for an autism assessment can feel overwhelming, isolating, and emotionally exhausting, especially for parents in the UK facing long waiting lists. In this video, I share what you can do while you wait to support your child, gather observations, reduce stress at home and school, and feel less helpless during this stage of the autism assessment process. I also share free and practical resources to help you recognise signs of autism, record what you're seeing, and set up supportive routines for your neurodiverse family while you're in this waiting period.

    Parenting a child with autism who masks can feel unbelievably isolating, especially when school reports say they're “fine” but home is full of after school meltdowns, shutdowns, anxiety, and overwhelm. In this episode, I'm talking about the hidden side of high masking children with autism, why meltdowns often happen at home with the safe person, and why you are not failing even if you've tried every strategy. I also share why these meltdowns are data, how to communicate with school, and how I think about regulation using the firefighter approach.

    Click to send me a message!"You've mentioned how it's harder for those with kids with autism — what kind of things are harder or different in a neuro-spicy household when it comes to cleaning up?"I got this comment recently, and it really made me stop and think. Because the truth is, it's not just about cleaning — there are so many hidden challenges in neurodiverse and SEN families that most people never see.This isn't about complaining. It's about opening up a conversation — so parents of neurodivergent kids can feel a little less alone, and parents of neurotypical kids can better understand what their friends might be carrying.In this episode, I'm diving into what life really looks like behind the scenes in a neurospicy household — from rigid routines, sensory overwhelm, and picky eating, to emotional letdowns after masking all day, social isolation, extra planning, and the constant mental load that comes with it all.If you're navigating any of this too, I hope this makes you feel seen. And if you've ever wondered what might be going on behind closed doors — I hope it helps you understand.
