Group Therapy & Retreats

Rachael has experience in facilitating interpersonally oriented groups for adults. Group therapy is a great opportunity for people to put what they are learning into practice and receive feedback within safe relationships.

In 2018, Rachael together with her friend Gayle formed 'Amblemore' and developed the 'Ultimate Self Care Challenge'. This is a six-session group course that teaches people how to live an abundant life and to find the joy, peace and purpose they have been longing for. Using evidence-based psychological interventions as well as spiritual and creative practices, the sessions are holistic and practical.

The course culminates in a weekend retreat at beautiful Marian Valley in the Gold Coast Hinterland for physical and emotional restoration. In the small group setting of 10, people are supported and have the opportunity to encourage others.

The challenges are usually conducted twice a year. Please contact Rachael if you are interested, or visit facebook.com/amblemore or amblemore.com.au for more information.

Clinical Supervision

Rachael has been STAP trained and is an experienced clinical supervisor. She is currently enjoying providing supervision to postgraduate Griffith University students, clinical registrars, and fellow clinical psychologists.

Rachael is also an EMDR accredited consultant and has been enthusiastically using EMDR since she was trained in 2011. She regularly provides both individual supervision and supervision within a group context to therapists working towards becoming EMDR accredited practitioners.

Supervision from Rachael means you can work towards endorsement with the clinical college and EMDR practitioner status at the same time.
