Dr. Gaye Cameron , AASW

Dr. Gaye Cameron is an Accredited Social Worker (AASW) and psychotherapist who brings more than 11 years of focused clinical experience to her work with people affected by trauma and other significant life challenges. She combines academic training and hands-on practice to offer thoughtful, evidence-informed care that is tailored to each person's circumstances.

She holds postgraduate qualifications, including a PhD, in areas spanning psychology, social work, psychotherapy, and dementia care. This range of study supports a broad clinical perspective and enables her to draw on different methods as appropriate for individual needs. Her practice places particular emphasis on trauma-related difficulties, including childhood trauma and the impacts experienced by victims of crime, while also addressing a variety of other emotional and relational concerns.

In session she integrates approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Narrative Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), framed within trauma-informed principles. Her work is client-centered, aimed at creating a respectful, collaborative space where people can explore their experiences, build resilience, and cultivate greater self-compassion. She supports practical strategies for coping and recovery while helping clients work toward meaningful personal goals.

Therapeutic approaches and online care with Dr. Gaye Cameron

Dr. Gaye Cameron uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression and improve daily functioning. She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to teach practical skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and healthier interpersonal interactions, which can be helpful for strong emotions and relationship difficulties. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is used to explore emotional patterns within close relationships and to strengthen emotional connection and understanding between partners.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Cameron works with each person to understand their goals, preferences, and circumstances, and she adapts methods over time so that therapy fits the client's needs rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which offer greater flexibility for scheduling and for engaging from different locations. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care, fit sessions into busy lives, and access licensed professionals without the need for in-person visits.
