The response to this session has been fantastic. I love that it's helped so many people begin to understand the basics of Autistic Masking.


Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and lived experiences with us. I greatly appreciate it as it helps me to become a better human, mother, and therapist. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
