As a licensed mental health therapist, Maria primarily works with parents to provide support through education and advocacy training. Her passion for working in the field stems from her personal journey with ASD when her daughter received the diagnosis at a very early age. In addition to therapy, Maria dons many other titles including coach, speaker, advocate, and author. Her first published work, The Self-Care Affirmation Journal, is currently available for purchase on Amazon. Maria’s unique approach to coaching and counseling exemplifies her drive and motivation toward greater acceptance and overcoming the barriers and personal struggles associated with raising a child on the spectrum. www.autisminblack.org www.instagram.com/autisminblack www.facebook.com/autisminblk Freebie: www.autisminblack.org/10free Remember to follow us at www.instagram.com/draligriffith and to invite 3 friends and share this episode with others.
