PROUD AUTISTIC COACHING

Who is Proud Autistic Coaching for?

Proud Autistic Coaching is designed for autistic adults who are:

• Seeking to embrace their authentic selves and live more fulfilling lives.

• Looking to navigate challenges in work, relationships, and daily life.

• Ready to move from feeling overwhelmed to empowered.

• Interested in developing personalized strategies for self-care and success.

• Wanting to build confidence, set boundaries, and advocate for their needs.

• Of any identity: any race, sexuality, gender, gender expression, religion, size, ability, nationality, culture, etc.

 

Do I need an official autism diagnosis to work with you?

No, you do not. We recognize that a self-diagnosis is equally as valid as a diagnosis given by a psychologist.

​

What can I expect from the coaching process with Proud Autistic Coaching?

We provide personalized support and guidance to help autistic adults achieve their personal and professional goals. Some key things you can expect:

• 60-minute one-on-one sessions conducted via Zoom.

• A collaborative, non-judgmental environment to explore your experiences and challenges.

• Tailored strategies and action plans to address your specific needs and objectives.

• Ongoing support, accountability, and resource recommendations between sessions.

• Short homework between sessions.

Our coaching approach is designed to meet you where you are and help you unlock your full potential.

 

How do I know if I'm a good fit for your coaching services?

Some signs that our coaching may be a good match for you:

• You're ready to take an active role in your personal growth and development.

• You're interested in exploring strategies to better understand and advocate for your autistic needs.

• You're open to trying new approaches and stepping outside your comfort zone.

• You're willing to commit time and effort to the coaching process.

• You're seeking a supportive, non-judgmental space to work on your goals.

We encourage you to schedule a complimentary consultation call to determine if we're the right fit to work together.

 

What is expected of me as a client?

• Attend sessions on time.

• Complete any agreed-upon homework between sessions.

• Be open and honest about your experiences and challenges.

• Provide 24-hour notice if you need to reschedule a session.

 

What are your coaching fees, and what payment options do you offer?

Our standard fee for a 60-minute coaching session is $150. We offer the following payment options:

• Credit/debit card (secure online payment)

• PayPal

.

What is your cancellation policy?

We require 24-hour notice for rescheduling or cancellation. Late cancellations or no-shows will result in a charge for the session unless there's a last-minute unforeseen circumstance such as a family emergency or illness.

 

How long does the coaching process typically last?

This varies by individual, but most clients work with us for 3-6 months. We regularly assess progress and adjust our plan as needed.

 

Do you offer group coaching or support services?

Not at this time, but we plan to offer these services in the near future.

 

What are your qualifications?

I am a certified life coach through the International Association of Professional Recovery Coaches. I also hold an A.A., a B.S., and an M.Ed.

 

What is the difference between coaching and therapy?

While both involve confidentiality and support, there are key differences:

• Purpose: Coaching focuses on achieving specific goals and making positive changes. Therapy addresses mental health concerns and past experiences.

• Approach: Coaching is forward-looking and action-oriented. Therapy involves more exploration of thoughts and feelings.

• Licensure: Coaches don't require the same clinical licenses as therapists. I am a certified life coach through the International Association of Professional Recovery Coaches. 

Coaching is not a substitute for mental health treatment. We can provide referrals to licensed therapists specializing in autistic adults if needed.
