Miss Amber Barry

I work with clients to help them change, grow and understand themselves better. I use evidence-based practice in my strengths-based and person-centred approach. I draw special attention to the social and cultural systems my clients are part of – and how this has impacted their mental health and relationships. I work primarily with depression, addiction, trauma and anxiety.

Mr. Matthew Austin

Caring & non-judgemental counselling for LGBTQIA+ folk. You may have been feeling bad about yourself and have noticed that you have been acting in inauthentic ways. Perhaps you are worried others won’t accept the real you. It’s been difficult to share your self-critical thoughts with others. I help LGBTQIA+ folk with non-judgmental and caring space to explore and better understand their distress. By creating a safe space between us we can begin to understand how feelings of shame have been shaped by trauma in relationships. Through increased self-understanding, you can connect with a kinder version of yourself and get clear about where you hustle for self-worth and connection.
