Question 1

What can I work on with a therapist as an Autistic adult?

Question 2

Can I start therapy if I think I am Autistic but have not been diagnosed?

Wondering whether you are Autistic is a reasonable thing to explore in therapy. You do not need a diagnosis to start, and a therapist can talk with you about what you are noticing. Most therapists do not assess, so if a formal evaluation is what you want, ask first. On Alma, read profiles of therapists in Pearland to see who mentions this.
