AMY DOSTAL

Clinical Psychologist

BCrim&Psych, BAppSc(Psych)(Hons), MPsych(Clinical)

Amy is a clinical psychologist who works with young adults aged around 18-35 for a variety of difficulties, particularly anxiety, OCD, low mood, low self-esteem, relationship issues, ADHD, autism, and existential issues. She has previously worked in hospital outpatient clinics, community mental health services, and university counselling centres.

Amy’s main focus is providing a relaxed space where people can feel comfortable, accepted, and safe to share things that can be hard to speak about elsewhere. She aims to help people achieve a greater understanding of themselves and their patterns, develop new ways of coping with their thoughts or emotions, and start to take steps toward the life that they want. This often involves a combination of deep, exploratory work and developing practical strategies or tools.

She uses evidence-based treatments, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Schema Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). She enjoys working with people from a variety of cultural and religious backgrounds, and tailors each person’s treatment to suit their individual needs and preferences.
