Amy Chevis-Bruce

Psychotherapist/Mental Health Practitioner

I am a psychotherapist specialised in cognitive behavioural therapy. My background is in mental health social work; I have worked across New Zealand, Australia, and England with children, young people, and adults. I am currently working in a specialist service in the NHS.

I am qualified to work with people of all ages, however I specialise in working with children and adolescents. My method focuses on using different therapeutic approaches to suit the needs of each person I support.

Some of the common difficulties I work with include:

• Anxiety, including social anxiety, separation anxiety, and panic
• Phobias, including emetophobia
• Obsessive-compulsive behaviours and perfectionism
• Emotion recognition and regulation
• Low self-esteem and confidence, exploring identity and sense of self
• Low mood and depression
• Managing mood changes
• Social and relationship difficulties
• Attachment difficulties
• Trauma
• Life issues, such as stress, coping skills, struggling with assertiveness, recovering from bullying

If you feel you may be interested or have any further questions, I would love to hear from you, so please get in touch. I can see people face-to-face at The Centre of the Hills or online.
