Cathy Wassell

Cathy Wassell bridges the gap between clinical strategy and the "trench-work" of parenting. As CEO of Autistic Girls Network (AGN), Cathy oversees a following of 112,000+ and a grassroots network of 35,000+ members, while her debut book, Nurturing Your Autistic Young Person (Jessica Kingsley Publishers), has sold over 15,000 copies, establishing her as a trusted authority in the field. Cathy is also founder of The Haven, a groundbreaking online school that uses neuro-affirmative pedagogy to re-engage learners who have been "out" of the system for up to five years, and a parent within her own neurodivergent family.
