In a world where voices advocating for autism awareness continue to grow, Harry Psaros stands out as a beacon of hope, resilience, and unwavering commitment. As an Executive Neuroscience Specialist at AbbVie and the bestselling author of From Struggle to Strength: A Father’s Journey with Autism and the Power of Hope and Positivity, Harry has made it his life’s mission to uplift families navigating the challenges of autism.
A Personal Journey Turned Global Mission
Harry’s journey began on a deeply personal level. Faced with the challenges of raising a child on the autism spectrum, he transformed personal struggle into a broader mission of advocacy and education. His Amazon bestseller serves not just as a memoir but as a motivational guide for parents worldwide.
“The purpose of my book is twofold: to inspire parents of children with autism and to challenge fathers who may be hesitant to embrace a diagnosis with love and optimism,” Psaros explains.
What started as a personal journey soon evolved into a national and international movement, with From Struggle to Strength set for release in Greek, Spanish, German, and French.
Amplifying Fatherhood in the Autism Community
For over a decade, Harry has taken the stage as a keynote speaker and active fundraiser, particularly focused on amplifying the often-overlooked voices of fathers within the autism community. His efforts have resonated deeply, challenging societal norms and encouraging fathers to step up and fully embrace their roles.
“Fathers play a critical role in their child’s development, and it’s time we normalize emotional openness and active participation in the autism journey,” says Psaros.
Leadership, Advocacy, and Future Works
Beyond authorship, Harry serves on the board of directors for the Autism Caring Center, contributing to strategic initiatives that directly impact the autism community in the greater Pittsburgh area. He is also the co-founder of P.A.L.S. (Providing Autism Links & Support), an organization dedicated to empowering children with special needs and their families.
Looking ahead, Harry has ambitious plans for two additional books:
- A guide specifically for fathers navigating autism.
- A celebration of exceptional father figures who embody resilience and compassion.
Spreading Positivity through Philotimo and Neurodiversity
One of Harry’s most passionate goals is to speak globally on the concept of neurodiversity alongside the Greek principle of Philotimo—a term encompassing honor, altruism, and a selfless drive to help others.
“Philotimo is a word without a direct English translation, but its meaning is powerful: doing the right thing for others without expecting anything in return. It aligns perfectly with supporting the autism community,” he explains.
