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.

We provide autism assessments from 12 months of age through adulthood, using tools such as MIGDAS, ADOS-2, SRS-2, ASRS and RAADS-R as clinically indicated. Assessments are available online across Australia, with in-person attendance at our North Lakes clinic where ADOS-2 forms part of the process. We also support autistic children, teenagers and adults after diagnosis, including adults making sense of a late identification, and we work with families on communication, routines and everyday demands. No GP referral is needed to book.

Kristen Bayliss
Psychologist, Registered Psychologist, BSc, MA
The uniqueness of each person with autism makes the experience of living with autism different for each individual and family. Autism is a life-long neurodevelopmental condition characterised by differences in social communication and interactions, alongside sensory sensitivities, focused interests, and repetitive behaviours. We support individuals and families in their journey to live life to it's fullest in all circumstances.
