Amanda works with young adults, adults, couples and families. She supports people experiencing anxiety, depression, social anxiety and other life challenges. She also helps couples and families explore interpersonal patterns that might contribute to family difficulties. 

 

She particularly enjoys helping people develop skills that enable them to overcome relationship difficulties and engage in healthy relationships. Her training and experience have led her to believe that unhealthy relationships, at home, school or work, can have far reaching effects on a person's psychological well-being and can lead to low self-esteem, shame, excessive and inappropriate guilt, self-criticism, anxiety, depression, and trauma symptoms.

​

Amanda endeavours to provide a safe, empathic, and non-judgemental space. She works with a combination of evidence based approaches including Cognitive Behavioural, Interpersonal, Acceptance Commitment, and Dialectical Behavioural therapies. When working with couples and families her approach is informed by family and systems theory.

 

Amanda is a full member of the Australian Association of Psychologists.
