The holidays can intensify sensory demands, disrupted routines, family expectations, social pressure, complicated relationships, and the need for recovery.
This small, live online support group explores the holiday season through an autistic lens, with space to understand your needs, anticipate difficult situations, establish boundaries, and find practical ways to navigate the season.
Rather than focusing simply on how to “get through” the holidays, we'll look at what makes this time of year uniquely demanding and what you may be able to change, decline, prepare for, or recover from.
We'll explore:
Sensory demands, overstimulation, and disrupted routines
Family dynamics and social expectations
Boundaries around gatherings, traditions, and obligations
Masking and social fatigue
Communication and asking for what you need
Food, travel, gifts, schedules, and other holiday stressors
Loneliness, grief, and complicated emotions
Regulation, recovery, and creating traditions that work for you
Cohort: November 4 – December 23, 2026
Wednesdays: 12:00–1:30 PM ET
Location: Live on Zoom
Group size: Maximum 6 participants
Investment: $360 for the 8-week cohort ($45 per session)
Meeting dates:
November 4, 11, 18 & 25
December 2, 9, 16 & 23
A formal autism diagnosis is not required. Registration is for the complete eight-week cohort rather than individual sessions.
