As a co-author of a book on Autism and Bullying, Tini is committed to advocating for the rights and well-being of autistic individuals. She has actively collaborated with autistic adults to develop a post-diagnostic self-reflection workbook, allowing individuals to explore their experiences and needs in a supportive and empowering manner.

Tini is deeply involved in research, and her primary focus is to amplify the voices of autistic adults, ensuring their perspectives are represented and considered in the field. Her passion for promoting understanding and acceptance drives her involvement in developing and teaching modules on the neurodevelopmental master's program at The New School of Psychotherapy and Counselling, affiliated with Middlesex University.

She has developed an autism-friendly assessment process, ensuring a holistic approach that takes into account the unique needs and experiences of each individual she assesses.

Tini's approach to post-diagnostic support emphasises a psychoeducational and low-intensity method, enabling autistic adults to manage their difficulties effectively in the long term. Through structured programs of post-diagnostic psychoeducation, she provides both individual and group support, equipping individuals with practical strategies for self-improvement and growth. Additionally, Tini offers a valuable support program to partners and parents of autistic adults, recognising the significance of a strong support network in promoting her patients’ wellbeing.
