Press Reviews
Sarah Hendrickx, Author of Women and Girls on the Autism Spectrum, 2nd edition
Andrea starts by telling us that she wants to 'inform and inspire' us, and she does just that in her book. Combining her personal autistic journey, she leads her reader in reflecting on the nature of their autistic profile, as well as masking, disclosure, safety and many other aspects of autistic life, through a series of questions and checklists. Gently written and easy to digest, Andrea's book is a welcome companion for any newly diagnosed autistic person.
- Michelle Garnett, PhD, clinical psychologist and founder and director of Minds & Hearts, A Specialist Clinic for Asperger's Syndrome and Autism
This book is an absolute treasure for late-discovered autistic women and those who love and support them. Andrea is an encouraging, validating, and compassionate guide for the journey toward the embracing the authentic self. I can highly recommend this book.
