With a belief in accessibility and convenience in therapy, Dr Gill offers Telepsychology to adults across Australia's remote landscape. Telepsychology is is now considered a quality-approved standard of care, by the American Psychological Society and the Australian Medical Board, given substantial evidence showing it to be as effective as in-person treatment for many mental health conditions, indicative of improved therapeutic relations and outcomes.
An Integrative, Authentic and Attachment-aware Framework of Healing
This perspective is informed by Dr Gill's own journey of professional reflexivity and personal change, including her own dedicated engagement in personal psychotherapy through which she has developed deep insights, a quality for sensitivity and understanding in effecting intrinsic empowerment. As such she can offer nuanced layers of understanding, authenticity and sensitivity in therapy. Dr Gill has also conducted Doctoral level Psychological Research in Oxford and London Universities, as well as having a background in Scientific experimental research, including Publications in Gene Therapy from Northern England Universities.
Dr Gill was trained to an advanced Professional Doctoral level in Counselling Psychology, within an Integrative Psychotherapy approach which tends to both these organic (personal) and rigorous (scientific) aspects of therapy by placing the therapeutic relationship at the centre of an Evidence-Based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) framework. Her approach to CBT is underpinned by fundamentally holistic and integral interpersonal principles of psychotherapy traditions of process, as required, drawing from person-centred, psychodynamic, transpersonal, existential as well as contemporary third and fourth wave cognitive and behavioural orientations, including but not limited to schema, dialectical, motivational, exposure, meta-cognitive, mindful, acceptance and commitment, as well as emotion, strengths, trauma-informed, culturally sensitive, solution, somatic and compassion-focused principles of therapy.
Psychology Focused Strategies that are Trauma-informed & Strengths-based
Dr Gill's collaborative approach espouses the inherent principles of attachment, trauma-informed care by creating a safe space to talk about experiences of pain, within a culturally sensitive framework that respects and considers the restraints and supports which have shaped your emotional life, in order to support your sense of autonomy and aid empowerment with an emphasis on choice and control in working towards your goals.
Psychoeducational and interventionist strategies for therapeutic transformation, are used within a strengths, resilience and values framework, to support your needs in line with psychologically focused treatment plans to create a roadmap of core strategies, towards recovery so you can start to live a fuller life, with hope and respect for your individual way of understanding and communicating (including room for humour in sessions if appropriate👀).
Process and Outcome Focused
Outcome measures are used to help monitor progress alongside feedback of processes within therapy, to support an ethical, accountable and governance based framework with your best interests in mind.
