Amy has worked primarily within Not-For-Profit organisations due to her passion for providing quality service to everyone regardless of financial status, culture, age, gender, sexuality, religion, or any other barrier. These settings have included community services for young people (ages 12-26), community drug and alcohol services, gambling services, anger management services, and working with people who have survived suicide attempts. In addition to these services, Amy provides therapy for people with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, developmental trauma, family violence, unwanted substance use, chronic suicidality and aggression outbursts.
Amy is experienced working with people who have complex trauma histories as they often underpin a lot of the more visible challenges that people experience. As a therapist, Amy is passionate about conveying the unique value of every person she meets and to work with them wherever they are, with whatever goals they have. Initially trained in a Cognitive Behavioural approach (CBT), Amy found that many people responded better to a varied approach. Other modalities that Amy works with, and will integrate into sessions, include Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Internal Family Systems (IFS).
Amy works with people aged 14 years and older, all the way up to 90 years. She works to create a non-judgement, safe, and stable space where people can understand themselves more and be supported in seeing meaningful change.
