Sebastian Kitchen
Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA Registered Member 32932
Autism and Asperger's often emerges during development in an environment of absent, inconsistent or misattuned caregiving. It is often an adaptive response to the pain or discomfort of being left alone and bored at a very young age. This is an age when it is very important to receive attentive and attuned care to develop one's emotional awareness, empathy and other skills that are often lacking in Autism and Asperger's presentations. I support you to understand how you can relate to these diagnose, supporting you to embrace greater agency, self-forgiveness, stability and healing. I use my integrative psychotherapy approach to collaborate with you in a unique treatment approach that fits your exact needs.

Jade at We Tackle Trauma
Counsellor/Therapist, MAASW, MSW, QTS, BSc (Hons)
Hello, I offer a neuro-affirming non-directive therapeutic approach to co-create support and therapy in a way that aligns with your preferences. I am trained and experienced in supporting individuals who identify with a range of autism labels (including non-verbal, 'autistic', and ‘Aspergers’), PDA profiles, and other neurodiversity; and I myself identify as neurodiverse. My toolkit blends creative and integrative therapies, somatic and regulatory practices, and a teaching background (health, mental health, and disability education teaching specialisms). I utilise this skillset to fully tailor my approach to your (or your child’s) preferred communication and engagement style. I have also completed multiple specialist training courses to assist me in working with a trauma-informed, strength-based, person-centred approach. Please make contact, to arrange a free no pressure consultation and find out more. I very much look forward to hearing from you, Jade

Gaye Mallinson - Somatic Psychotherapies
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Soc.Ser. (Couns) Dist, Dip. Couns, Trauma Informed Yoga Cert, Pranayama Cert, Nidra Cert
I work primarily from a Rogerian or Person-Centred Therapy (PCT) approach using a conversational style listening patiently to you, always with empathy, genuineness and without judgement, to help find the solutions you desire for your life whilst adjusting my techniques to fit your needs within each session.
Due to my background in nursing and mental health, I have a good understanding of neurodiverse diagnoses including ASD and how it can impact the person including the potential impacts for those around them required to support them. This makes it easier for you to not feel you need to provide detailed explanation of the diagnosis, instead focusing on the issues you wish to focus on to utilise your session in a way that works best for you. I am always happy to only specifically clarify what may be unique to you so I can best support your needs.
My aim is to then assist you with your life difficulties to restore balance, happiness and inner peace with various techniques of 'talk therapy' and somatic (mind/body) healing methods, along with offering practical strategies that may be useful where suitable and desired by you. Whatever you are going through, know that there is hope - Let me help you find that hope.
