Book a Free Consultation or Session with Lara
Lara offers four types of mentoring, coaching, and assessment services designed to support autistic adolescents, adults, and their families. All sessions are conducted remotely, and Lara prioritizes making your experience warm, personal, and flexible.
Adult Guided Self-Assessment Screening Sessions
A supportive and efficient alternative to traditional autism assessments. Traditional assessments can often be costly and inaccessible, with long wait times that delay support. They may also carry gender biases, reflect assessor subjectivity, or rely on outdated knowledge, making them less effective for truly understanding and empowering individuals.
Why choose guided self-assessment with Lara?
- Affordable, tiered cost structure
- Sessions available within two weeks
- Led by a Certified Autism Specialist and experienced educator
- Tailored use of standard autism assessment tools for adults
During a guided self-assessment screening, we work together to explore your relationship with autism. A single session provides expert insight and guidance, while multiple sessions allow deeper discussion, contemplation, and support for addressing masking and self-identification.
Session Options & Pricing
- First session (1.5 hrs): USD $175
- Second session (1.5 hrs): USD $175
- Third session (1 hr): USD $125
Mentoring and Counseling Sessions
For autistic individuals (ages 12 through adulthood) and their families.
Whether you are newly diagnosed, self-identified, or have known about your autism for years, these sessions focus on building strategies for a happier, more empowered life.
Areas of focus may include:
- Career development and workplace strategies
- Executive functioning and daily challenges
- Stress management and self-actualization
- Improving relationships and social interactions
Family members and loved ones are welcome to join sessions, or they may meet with Lara separately to gain insight and understanding.
