Sebastian Kitchen
Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA Reg. Certified Practising 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.

Marianna Trezza -The Growing mindset
Counsellor/Therapist, MA (Hons), Adv Dip. Counsel. & Psychoth.,Dip. Hypnoth., X-Cultural Adaptation Coun. Reg. BACP 572613
Autism, like ADHD and dyslexia, rarely arrives alone, and in adult women it's often missed entirely, masked for years behind coping strategies that looked, from the outside, like just being sensitive or shy or perfectionistic. If you're recognising pieces of yourself here, formally diagnosed or not, my practice is neurodivergent-affirming: we don't start from what needs fixing, we start from how your mind actually works, and build from there.

Body Sense Psychology
Psychologist, Master of Psychology, Bachelor of Arts (Honours Psychology), Certificate in Sexology
As a neurodiversity affirming practice, many of my clients are neurodiverse. I tailor the therapies and approach I take to meet your specific needs and goals and have a deep understanding that no two neurodiverse individuals are the same. As a neurodiverse person myself, I understand the additional challenges and difficulties that come from existing in a society that was not built by or for us.
I work with you to understand how the colour of your difference presents challenges in your life, and work with you to identify solutions and strategies that make day to day life easier. I also know that people have many different ways of interacting, sensing and communicating so offer my neurodiverse clients (and anyone who needs it) choice and autonomy during therapy. This means that you can choose:
- In person or remote (tele or video)
- talking, writing or drawing (communication isn't just verbal)
- getting a copy of session synopsis to refer to after the session in case you forget
- doing practical exercises with me in session, or doing them between sessions in your own time
- getting written notes or diagrams of what we've discussed in session that you can refer to later
- modifying the physical environment based on your preference (e.g. lower light, music or no music, aromatherapy scents etc).
