Welcome to the Autism Parent Club Podcast!
Are you parenting a child with profound autism or navigating life with a non-verbal teen who requires 24/7 care? You’ve found your people.
We’re Chris and Becky—parents to an 18-year-old son diagnosed with Level 3 autism, sometimes referred to as severe or profound autism. Each week, we share real-life stories from our journey parenting a child with high support needs, including sensory challenges, communication barriers, meltdowns, medical visits, and meaningful milestones.
In this episode:
In this episode, we share a real-life look at the challenges of accessing autism services—especially when it comes to finding a qualified psychiatrist for a child with complex needs. What sounds simple—“just take him to a psychiatrist”—quickly turns into a maze of insurance limitations, Medicaid restrictions, provider shortages, referrals, and long waitlists. We walk through the emotional toll of needing help now but facing delays that could take months or even years. If you’re parenting a child with autism, navigating the healthcare system, or feeling stuck between waiting for the right specialist and settling for less experienced care, this episode will help you feel seen and understood.Email us: [email protected]
