Dr. Gaye Cameron

Dr. Gaye Cameron offers calm, direct support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, relationship strain or difficult life events. She works with adults who are facing trauma, grief, depression, addictions, intimacy concerns or struggles with self‑esteem. Her approach aims to help people feel steadier and more able to make choices that match their values.

Gaye draws on more than 11 years of clinical experience and a background that includes a PhD and postgraduate study in psychology, social work, psychotherapy and dementia care. She is an AASW member and brings that social work perspective into every session. Conversations are straightforward and focused on what matters to the client right now.

Sessions combine practical skills and reflective work. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is used to spot patterns and try small behaviour changes. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) are drawn on for managing difficult emotions and building flexibility.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) and trauma-informed ways of working are also part of the toolkit when connection and past hurts are central. Gaye tailors the mix to each person, helping them explore their story, develop coping strategies and rebuild a sense of agency.

People often come with complex layers such as attachment, abandonment or family and relationship problems. Gaye works at a measured pace so clients can notice change without feeling rushed. To begin, readers should use the site Start Therapy button and complete the short matching questionnaire.

Therapeutic approaches and how they translate online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values despite uncomfortable thoughts or feelings. It is useful for anxiety, depression and low motivation. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviours to reduce symptoms and improve day-to-day functioning. It works well for stress, anxiety and mood concerns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) targets emotional experience and patterns in close relationships, helping people notice and shift interaction cycles that cause distance or hurt.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and collaborate with each person to choose methods that suit their goals, preferences and current needs rather than assuming a single pathway from the start.

Please confirm available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific online options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow quieter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people choose not to be on camera if that helps them engage. Ask about the current session arrangements when you use the Start Therapy process so you know what to expect.
