Elizabeth’s autism story started with an eating concern. Her young son was stuck on baby food jars, and when he saw solid food, he’d have a visual choking reaction to it. He literally gagged at the sight of food. Because Elizabeth only knew children with autism who were non-verbal or were on the severe side of the spectrum, she didn’t connect her son’s unusual reaction to food as a symptom of autism.
In her state, Elizabeth was able to find an early intervention specialist to help her with her eating concerns, but then the pandemic closed everything down. Like many parent advocates, she went looking for information on how to help her son, and by July of 2020, she’d found my toddler course online. Elizabeth is an active member in my course Facebook group, and even though we’ve never met before this interview, I feel like I know her because I’ve watched her journey over the last year.
In today’s video you’ll learn:
-How picky eating can appear in children with autism from a young age, and why it’s now considered an autism red flag.
-Elizabeth didn’t see significant progress in her son until she had learned enough from my course to have a good grasp of the entire therapy process.
-How my book and courses can help even very young children who are showing early signs of autism.

Dr. Mary Barbera. I fell into the autism world as an autism mom in 1999 when her first-born son, Lucas, was diagnosed with autism. Since then, she became a Board-Certified Behavior Analyst and best-selling author of The Verbal Behavior Approach. Since 2015, she’s created 3 autism online courses based on applied behavior analysis for professionals and "gung-ho" parents. Whether you’re looking for autism parenting strategies, working with development delays in children, or in search of autism help for professionals, I can encourage you to subscribe to the channel and join me on my journey. I’ll be providing weekly autism resources that you don’t want to miss.
