  • 5 Star Review - Dr. Tay

    I absolutely love Sasha’s podcast because of her attention to helping autistic children thrive, particularly at school — it is evident in each of her episodes! As a licensed child psychologist who works with autistic children and their families, this is a podcast I will be recommending parents to start listening to.

  • Lots of ads

    This used to be one of my favorite podcasts, but it is about 5 minutes of good content and 8 minutes of promo. The concepts are great, just be prepared to fast forward a lot.

  • Outstanding Podcast

    I love listening to the Autism Helper Podcast everyday when I walk! I have increased my mileage and steps, because I want to listen to more. Listening to the podcast helps me daily in my Functional Academic SDC. I also share with parents as well as assign it to my para educators and then discuss the topics and strategies at our weekly meetings.
