Your Psychology Journey offer?
Bespoke Therapy
The aim of Your Psychology Journey is to provide a bespoke therapy that is tailored to your individual needs and goals. This approach supports holistic methods and processes with the objective of achieving rich and meaningful outcomes personalised for you.
Standards of Quality and Assurance in Practice
Dr Gill is a grade member of the Australian Psychological Society (MAPS) which in the field of Psychology is considered to be: "a marker of quality and high standards. When consulting an APS Member the public can be assured they are working with a reliable and dependable practitioner"
Authentic and Integrative Approach
A unique aspect of Dr Gill's UK training was engaging in her own personal psychotherapy throughout her studies, to develop a quality for sensitivity within the therapeutic relationship (an aspect deemed unnecessary in the American and Australian clinical training milieu). As such she offers a layer of understanding, authenticity and warmth in therapy. Dr Gill has also conducted Doctoral level Psychological Research in Oxford and London Universities and has a background in Scientific experimental research.
An Integrative approach tends to both these aspects of psychotherapy by placing the therapeutic relationship at the centre of an Evidence-Based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) framework, underpinned by dynamic therapeutic principles primarily person-centred and interpersonal. Her practice draws from a range of psychotherapy traditions, including psychodynamic, existential and humanistic as well as contemporary evidence based third-wave cognitive and behavioural orientations including exposure, meta-cognitive, dialectical, mindfulness, acceptance and commitment, as well as emotion and compassion-focused principles of therapy.
Dr Gill has experience of supporting people with various psychological presentations in diverse clinical and mental health settings for over 20 years, in the UK and Australia, ranging from GP and Private Practice, through to the Public Sector, University, Community, Inpatient and Residential Services. She is experienced in supporting adults individually and in groups, with moderate to severe through to chronic and more complex mental health and psycho-social needs.
Trauma-Informed Strengths Base
Dr Gill's collaborative approach espouses the inherent principles of trauma-informed care by creating a safe space to talk and support your sense of autonomy and empowerment with an emphasis on choice and control in working towards your goals. Psychoeducational and interventionist strategies are used within a strengths, resilience and values framework, to support your needs and empower your preferences in line with psychologically focused treatment plans to create a roadmap to recovery so you can start to live a fuller life, with hope around change, and respect for your individual way of understanding and communicating (including room for humour in sessions if appropriate👀). Her aim is to offer you a therapeutic experience that is transformative.
Process and Outcome Focus
Outcome measures are used to help monitor progress alongside feedback of processes in therapy, to support an ethical, accountable and governance based framework with your best interests in mind.
