Is this therapy?

No. This is a support group, not individual or group therapy. It is a structured, clinician-led space for mothers and fathers to process what they're carrying, alongside others who understand it firsthand.

​

Will I have to share personal details in front of the group?

Only what you’re comfortable sharing. There’s no pressure to disclose more than you want to. What you do share stays in the group. Confidentiality is standard practice here, not a favor.

​

Do I need a formal autism diagnosis for my child to join?

No. This group is open to mothers or fathers raising children with autism or other developmental differences, whether or not you have a formal diagnosis yet.

 

Is this covered by insurance?

No, this group is private pay only and isn’t billed through insurance.

 

What if I miss a week?

Life happens. One missed session won’t remove you from the group, but because the group is small and cumulative, we ask that you attend as consistently as you can so the group stays connected.

 

Why is a guidebook required?

The guidebook supports reflection between sessions so the work doesn’t stop when the call ends. It’s a one-time $9.99 purchase and required to hold your place in the group.

 

What happens after I say I’m interested?

Nothing is decided yet. We’ll follow up personally, walk you through the guidebook purchase, a short intake, and a consent form, then send you your Zoom link and start date.

 

Do I have to be married to join this group?

No. You can join this group regardless of relationship status.
