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.

Together we'll create a supportive space where you can explore your individual experience with understanding and acceptance.

We'll work together to celebrate your strengths, address challenges, and cultivate ways to honour your authentic self.

Tyla Stroebel
Psychologist, BA Psych Hons; MSc
Autism isn’t something to “fix”, it’s a neurotype, a beautiful and valid way of experiencing the world. At The Psych Assessment Studio, we specialise in identifying both classic and high-masking presentations of autism, with a focus on compassion, clarity, and empowerment. Our goal is to help you understand your sensory needs, communication style, and processing patterns in a way that promotes self-acceptance and authentic living.

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).
