We work with two brilliant autism coaches, both of whom have autistic diagnoses (Asperger Syndrome) themselves and many years’ experience of both personal and professional autism experience.

Please read the profiles for each of our coaches and make contact directly with whomever you feel would be best suited for your needs and circumstances. You will need to make all appointments and arrangements directly with the coaches.

Fee: £50.00 per hour. Any other financial arrangements by discussion with Caroline or Karen.
