Supporting Autistic Well-Being
Join RDI® Consultants Lisa Palasti & Andreja Stefulj for a transformative one-day event dedicated to empowering autistic individuals and the families, educators, and professionals who support them.
Supporting Autistic Well-Being brings together cutting-edge insight from Relationship Development Intervention® , compassionate guidance, and evidence-based approaches to enhance quality of life through meaningful connection, autonomy, and growth.
RDI®, developed by Dr. Gutstein and Dr. Rachelle Sheely, is a parent-based intervention that empowers parents to become the primary guides in their child’s development. The approach focuses on building “dynamic intelligence”—flexible thinking, problem-solving, adapting to change, and understanding different perspectives—which are seen as fundamental for meaningful relationships and overall well-being.
Space is limited—secure your ticket now and be part of a movement focused on empowered well-being.

Lisa Palasti,
Prior to becoming the first certified RDI® Program Consultant in Canada in 2005, Lisa worked in the school system supporting children with special needs. Lisa has held a variety of roles with RDIconnect® which includes supervision of professional consultants in training, co-producing webinars for professionals and parents, blogging and more. She is the founder and director of Mindful Guide Consulting and works with families across Canada from British Columbia to Prince Edward as well as the USA. Lisa is excited about the opportunity to bring the RDI® Program Training to Canada so that more professionals can be trained in this amazing program to better support families and improve the quality of lives of their loved one affected by Autism here in the Great White North.
Lisa knows firsthand what it feels like to be a parent of special needs children and the positive impact Relationship Development Intervention® has had on her family. Lisa began using Relationship Development Intervention® with her family in 2003, today her boys are both independent young men and thriving members of their community. She finds it tremendously rewarding work to empower and educate parents to guide their children in developing real world competency and dynamic intelligence. RDI® changes lives and builds minds – parents can make all the difference!
