No matter how many things are planned, things sometimes go awry. That is just part of being an autism parent. You’re not alone!
I’m an autism strategist who works with parents of young children who are tired, frustrated, overwhelmed, and don’t know how to best help their child.
They struggle day to day, are afraid of what the future holds, and feel isolated and alone.
As someone who’s been there myself, I help you make and execute a plan and improvise and revise as needed so you can get in tune with your child’s needs, find things that work to help them calm, identify, then relieve and alleviate their triggers and other problems, make progress, and yes even enjoy parenting (at least sometimes :) ) again.
Like you, my life was dramatically changed when I suspected my youngest daughter had autism and I couldn’t get help.
My daughter had quit responding to peek-a-boo, her language wasn’t developing, she stared at lights and the eye contact just wasn’t there. She didn’t even notice if we left the room!

Hi!
I’m Jodi LeBlanc, Autism Strategist, school counselor, parent coach, author, and most importantly momma to 3 incredibly beautiful and talented girls, the youngest of which was diagnosed with severe autism at the age of 26 months after 14 months of struggling to get help!
I have a graduate degree in Psychological Services, I am a licensed school counselor, and early childhood educator.
I took my education and experience and spent almost two decades planning, training, and overseeing child development and instruction for thousands of children.
Children with special needs, children with all kinds of backgrounds, disabilities and their caregivers.
Over two decades of experience in Child Development, Psychological Services, and early childhood education.
Teaching parents and teachers, daycare owners and employees both child development and developmentally appropriate practices.
Then the wake-up call…Fast forward over a decade . . .
I was further frustrated by the fact that after therapy for more than 3 years, she wasn’t making the progress that I thought she should be.
There was no speech still, no requesting food, drink, or any of the things that you would expect a 4-year-old to do.
I knew there had to be more that could be done.
Once I learned how to move forward I knew I needed to share that with other parents who need to get their child moving in the right direction. Although the behaviors all are different they all have commonalities and the basis for them are rooted in pretty much a handful or two of things.
By being an objective outsider I help troubleshoot and give practical recommendations on how to help your child, relieve their pain point and how to help you navigate getting the best results you can. Now and most importantly over time, real results, with real relief.
