When a parent begins to suspect autism, one of the first questions is:

Where do I go, and who do I trust?

In this episode of Practitioner Perspectives in Autism Care, Ashley Tamayo shares how families can approach finding the right practitioner without becoming overwhelmed.

From word-of-mouth recommendations to school and primary care referrals, to navigating online searches, this conversation breaks down what actually matters when choosing care.

In this episode:

• How to begin the search for an autism practitioner
• Why word of mouth is often the strongest starting point
• The role of schools and educators in guiding families
• How to approach online searches responsibly
• What credentials and certifications actually signal
• Understanding different types of practitioners and assessments
• Why early experiences with care matter more than most parents realize

This is not about finding the “perfect” provider.

It’s about finding the right fit for your child and your family.
