Autism support for parents and carers
Understand your Autistic child, teen or adult from the inside, and support them without correcting who they are.
If the usual strategies leave your family more exhausted and disconnected, you are not failing. Most advice is built on deficit stories. This course gives you an Autistic-led alternative: practical understanding of sensory overload, meltdowns, burnout, stimming and play that you can start using at home straight away.
In this course
- 4½ hours of video

Common questions
Who is the Re-Storying Autism course for?
It is for parents, carers and family members who want to support an Autistic loved one in a way that works with them, and for Autistic people (including late-identified and self-identified adults) who want language and understanding for their own experience. It starts from Autistic dignity. It is not for anyone looking to change, cure or normalise an Autistic person.
Do I have to watch the modules in order?
No. Start wherever feels most useful. The course is designed so that you can follow it step by step from the beginning, or dip into the lessons that matter most right now, and come back to the others when you are ready.
Can I read instead of watching the videos?
Yes. Every lesson includes the full workbook text, so you can watch, read, or do both.
