Our Founder and Director

At ABC Health, we understand the hopes, challenges, and questions that come with raising a child on the autism spectrum, because we’ve been there too. Our founder, Lila Ayyad-Alharsha, M.Ed., LBA., BCBA., IBA, brings more than 28 years of experience and a unique perspective to ABC Health. As a parent of an adult on the autism spectrum, she built the company with a deep understanding of both the professional and personal sides of autism care.

With a background in early childhood education, special education, school leadership, and, as a Board Certified Behavior Analyst, Lila approaches every family with a 360° perspective — as a parent, educator, and clinician. This blend of personal experience and professional expertise allows her to meet each family’s unique needs.

In addition to her BCBA certification, Lila is certified in school administration with a Type 75 certification, and as a general and special education teacher. She has served as the Director of Education for a therapeutic day school serving students from more than 30 school districts in Illinois.

This blend of heart and expertise is at the core of everything we do. Our programs are designed to help children thrive while ensuring families feel guided, understood, and never alone.
