Hosts Niki Lampi and Tamara Pogin speak with Angela Carroll, a mother of four autistic children. Angela shares her family’s journey with the clinic—from early speech delays and rapid progress through play-based, parent-involved therapy to later evaluations and individualized supports for her twins. She highlights the importance of trusting parental instincts, advocating for services despite long waitlists, and pursuing supports beyond diagnosis, including IEPs and community resources. Angela also discusses navigating limited services, changes in ABA, homeschooling, and her advocacy work supporting other families through fundraising and peer guidance.
