Our Team
Our Ausome Team of Behaviour Interventionists, Behaviour Consultants, Counsellors, RDI Consultants, and Administrative Staff.
We call ourselves Team Ausome. We’re made up of a bundle of neurodiverse and neurotypical professionals from different backgrounds. We have one thing in common—one big, audacious goal: to improve the lives of kids, families, and autism therapy service providers.
At the beginning, our team saw a gap in the therapeutic space for services that celebrated neurodiversity. Morning chats among like-minded colleagues became more serious explorations of how we could support more families with kids on the spectrum, until we asked ourselves, "What if?"
What if providing autism behavioral services was simpler?
What if parents could stay informed, active participants in their child's therapy?
What if everyone felt celebrated?
Our what ifs turned into an obsession to change the way families saw therapy. This obsession sparked several pilot projects, which then transformed into Ausome Match Autism Services—an organization which is proud to offer an approach to therapy many parents craved.
Now is a great time for autism therapy—let’s work together so we can show you how! Book a meeting to see how we can help.

Trained professionals who oversee therapy, supervise, and mentor our team of Behavioral Interventionists. They train the mentors (BI’s and TA’s) to provide quality therapy in-clinic or community.

Meet Stephanie Betsch
Founder, Chief Strategist and RDI Consultant at Ausome Match Autism Services
Meet Stephanie, the visionary behind Ausome Match, serving as its Owner, Chief Strategist, and an esteemed Relationship Development Intervention (RDI) consultant.
Stephanie’s passion for autism support services started with curiosity. She had met parents of little ones with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and was curious to learn more about their unique view of the world. Through hearing the stories of hundreds of families trying to navigate the world of B.C. service providers, Stephanie became aware of the major issue facing these families
While working at one of B.C.’s largest non-profits, Stephanie developed and led social groups and events, managed projects in the Fraser Valley, and became a sought-after advocate on various social issues in the province. She even had the pleasure of meeting with and interviewing regional political figures. It’s with this background that Stephanie created Ausome Match Autism Services and pursued her career as an RDI Consultant.
When not working with her team ...
Steph balances a fun life of friends, adventure, family, kids, and education. She is often in nature in Whistler, at home making sourdough and weird foods, or working on her studies.
Her colleagues call her Sticky Note Steph because, at any given moment, she has 100 sticky notes on the office walls. Steph calls them her “brain explosion”. With a dyslexic mind, she embraces her past, present, and future with a diverse brain that she keeps active and optimistic.
Our Story
Ausome Match Was Built on Optimism & The Belief That
Hard Times Won't Last Forever
Over the years, we’ve watched parents struggle as they went from therapist to therapist only to discover their approach wasn’t working for their child. Combine this with the fact that British Columbia suffers from a lack of autism service providers and we saw an opportunity. We decided to make it our goal to offer better support for kids & teens with autism, and their families, in a way that also supports the therapist. It's a win-win.
Since we started in October 2021, we grew from:
2022: Beginning with a team composed entirely of Behavioral Interventionists operating within homes, our journey commenced within our founder's walk-in closet. Since our inception, we've evolved remarkably.
2023: Our trajectory led us to establish a clinic in Chilliwack, BC, in January 2023. Now, our dedicated team comprises over 20 mentors, including BI's, Therapy Assistants, SLP's, and an occupational therapist. We've proudly introduced RDI behavioral therapy to our community.
2024: Looking ahead, our growth continues. In January 2024, we expanded with a second location—an esteemed head office and RDI Consulting firm nestled in Chilliwack's coveted District 1881. This second site is thoughtfully tailored to provide consultations specifically for parents engaging in RDI therapy. It offers a serene, distraction-free environment, distinct from our therapy clinic across the street.
2025: More Fun, More Support, More Ausome!
-
-
The Spot: Our second location—a fun, cozy hangout for neurodivergent teens (12+).

Counselling Services: Individual, family, and group support now available.
