Coaching autistic young people through Positive Psychology

Welcome to Let It Blossom

 

Are you a teenager or young adult with autism? Do you feel misunderstood or do you experience stress and want people around you to better understand what autism means? Are you looking for guidance to let your strengths bloom? Or are you a parent of a child with autism and in need of support?

Let It Blossom can help you! 

My name is María Alejandra 

Since I became aware of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in our family 16 years ago, it has enriched our lives with beautiful and difficult experiences. From those experiences, autism has my heart. That's why I started Let It Blossom, to share my knowledge and experience. By coaching young people with autism, ADHD, and other neurodevelopmental conditions. And by supporting parents and partners in their quest for a more beautiful and easier life with autism.

My coaching is based on Positive Psychology, a scientific backed approach that helps people rediscover and enhance their personal strenghs. They will learn to apply this skill in their daily life to reach their goals and leave with purpose and confidence.

Positive Psychology

 

Positive psychology is the scientific study of what makes life most worth living. Rather than focusing solely on problems or mental health challenges, it explores the factors that contribute to well-being and personal fulfilment. The emphasis is on fostering positive emotions, building strengths, and creating meaningful experiences that enhance overall life satisfaction.

Key elements include life satisfaction, meaning, happiness, and engagement—all of which contribute to living a more rewarding life.

 

Autism

 

Autism, or Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a developmental disorder. In people with ASD, information processing in the brain proceeds differently. Sensory information is perceived, but lacks coherence: similar to individual particles, without meaningful context.
