ASD advocacy with Kathy Riojas

Kathy Riojas is a Texas native raising three children across the lifespan with her husband. Following an autism diagnosis of her youngest child, Kathy traded an almost 15-year career in public education for a new career in mental health. Today Kathy operates a solo private practice, is a freelance writer for Dallas Moms and Denton County Moms and operates an Instagram page, WithLove.Kat, where she unapologetically confronts the duality of grief and joy as a parent to a non-speaking autistic boy. Kathy is also a bravoholic and she shares thoughts on the recent announcement from Tamra Judge and RHONJ Jaqueline Laurita’s journey with ASD was discussed. This interview shares Kathy’s perspective about being a caregiver for a child on the ASD spectrum in an effort to share varied perspectives on this topic. The discussion was respectful, educational and of course giggles and sillies were had by all.Please follow YBT podcast and give a 5-star rating!
