Hi, I’m Julie a.k.a The Autistic Mom

Ten years after learning that my son is autistic, I was also diagnosed. I was 44. For the first time the world made sense.

I created The Autistic Mom to share some of the many things I’ve learned—and unlearned—along the way. I hope you’ll follow along.

Julie’s writing has been published in the Washington Post, HuffPost, Globe and Mail, Healthline, Parents, The Mighty, and more. She has appeared on various TV and radio programs, including CTV, BBC Radio, Sirius XM, CBC Radio, and HuffPost Live.

She is the author of the forthcoming memoir, Scenes From the Spectrum (ECW Press, 2026).
