Built by autism moms, for autism families.

You got the autism diagnosis. Now what?
We’ve been there.
And it’s going to be ok.
We're two autism moms — one with a PhD in clinical psychology and a decade of coaching experience, one a certified speech-language pathologist — who sat in that same office, heard those same words, and went home with a stack of papers and no one to call.
So we built CAE. Because no family should have to navigate this alone — and because the work doesn't end at diagnosis. It starts there.

HOW IT WORKS
Getting a diagnosis doesn’t come with a roadmap.
"One day you're in that office. The next, someone hands you a list and says ‘good luck.'"
Autism Family Navigators are your concierge, your most connected parent friend, and your next-steps strategist — all in one. We don't pile on more information. We take the overwhelm off your plate, vet the providers, and hand you a plan that fits your child and your real life.
One day or two years out — CAE meets you exactly where you are.
A Navigator listens deeply and assesses what you actually need — not what's on a checklist.
We review evals, check real waitlists, and curate a shortlist built for your child.
Clear next steps, sequenced and prioritized — with a Navigator in your corner as things evolve.
FOR PROVIDERS
We bring families to you.

The Collective Autism Experience was created with one mission in mind: to walk alongside people navigating the complex world of autism support.
As parents of autistic children, we know firsthand how overwhelming this diagnosis can be—filled with questions, uncertainty, and a lack of clear guidance.
CAE exists to be the bridge, connecting you to resources, clarity, and community every step of the way.
In their own words.
