About Gaye
Dr. Gaye Cameron is an AASW social worker with 11 years of clinical experience in Australia. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, addictions, LGBT concerns, family and intimacy-related issues, and self-esteem difficulties.
Gaye uses straightforward, evidence-informed approaches in sessions. She draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people notice patterns, try different responses and practise new skills. Sessions are intended to be practical and focused on what the person wants to change.
Her background includes postgraduate study and a PhD in related fields, and many years working with people affected by childhood trauma and victims of crime. That mix of academic work and hands-on practice shapes how she frames problems and solutions in everyday terms.
In the room she takes a client-centred stance, listening and helping people name what matters most to them. Work may include learning emotion-regulation strategies, restructuring unhelpful thinking, improving communication, and planning small behavioural steps.
Gaye also addresses complex themes such as attachment and abandonment, relationship commitment problems, blended family issues, body image and eating concerns, and drug or alcohol addiction. She aims to help people build steadier routines, clearer boundaries and better coping tools.
Practical concerns such as grief after loss, dissociation, domestic violence impacts, and ageing or geriatric issues are part of her practice. People who want a measured, research-informed approach to early-adult pressures often find this style helpful.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on personal values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and life-direction problems where deciding what matters feels hard.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and teaches practical skills to change those links. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression and stress management.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on emotional experience and improving how people connect in relationships. It can be helpful for attachment, intimacy and communication difficulties.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and try methods that fit the person’s goals and preferences. That collaborative process helps decide whether to focus on skills practice, values-based work or emotional processing.
The biography does not specify which online session formats are used, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into study, work and travel commitments. They also allow for shorter check-ins, screen-off phone-style conversations, or camera sessions when deeper emotional work is needed. Ask about the available formats and scheduling to match therapy with everyday routines.
