A Family Transition Coach supports families navigating the period between an autism diagnosis and the start of formal therapeutic services. I provide practical tools, confident language, and a strength-based framework so families don't have to figure it out alone during one of the most overwhelming transitions of their lives.
Do I need to wait until my child has a diagnosis to work with you?
You can start at any time. If you're in the evaluation process and already feeling overwhelmed, we can start building your foundation now.
Do you just work with people with Autism?
No! I specialize in finding ways to support families all across the spectrum of neurodivergence. I have a wealth of experience with ADHD, OCD, anxiety, depression, intellectual disabilities as well as genetic disorders. If you have questions feel free to send a message to [email protected]
Are you a replacement for ABA therapy, speech or OT?
No. I am not a clinical service provider. I am the support that bridges the gap before those services begin and helps your family maximize them when they do.
What does a typical session look like?
Intake sessions last 60Ā minutes.Ā Sessions are personalized to your family's immediate needs; no two families are the same. We may work on public outing strategies, communication scripts, reinforcement systems, or simply processing where you are emotionally.
How long do most families work with you?
Most families work with me for three to six months, though some continue longer depending on their needs and goals.
Do you offer in-person or virtual sessions?
Both! I offer on-site support in the East Bay area as well as virtual sessions for families outside my local area.
How do I get started?
Schedule a free intake callĀ directly through my website. We will talk about where your family is, what you need most, and whether we are a good fit.
Is this ABA therapy?
No. While my training includes a strong foundation in Applied Behavior Analysis, what I offer is coaching, not clinical therapy. I do not provide billable ABA services, write formal behavior intervention plans, or replace the work of a Board Certified Behavior Analyst.
What I do is translate evidence based principles, including some rooted in ABA, into practical strategies your family can actually use right now. I help you understand what is coming, build skills that make those services more effective, and navigate daily life with more confidence in the meantime.
If you are looking for a clinical ABA provider, I am happy to help you find one. If you are looking for someone to help your family survive and thrive during the waiting period, you are in the right place.
