Why would your Family need an Autism Lifestyle Coach?
I know many parents who feel they have everything under control, and things are fine just the way they are. However, there are some families who have a difficult time with their ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder/ PDD)child, especially parents with busy schedules who don't have the energy, nor the time to research answers, or take their child to a therapist for every single symptom commonly associated with ASD/PDD.
This is when I get involved as an Autism Lifestyle Coach. As a mother of an 11 year old autistic son with Developmental delays. I will put my experiences with wisdom, knowledge, and most of all 25 years of Nursing and Nurse Case Management all together to help parents navigate the system and:
1. Empower families with the tools to live life to it's fullest with autism. By assessing the problems you are conerned about no matter how many they are.
2. Help Parents identify situations or factors that ignites negative symptoms of autism. Observing the child in his own environment allows me to develop a plan for a better solution for dealing with those "challenging behaviors."
3. Help Parents plan and evaluate types of services needed to minimize negative behavior, build on your child's strenghts and to strengthen those areas he or she is weak in.
4. Become a referral/resource person for your family and to help sibblings of ASD children to adjust/cope.
5. Help your family celebrate in achieving milestones accomplished as a team.
