Spotlight On: Amy Ann Broomhall Gold Coast Psychologist

Registered Psychologist: Amy Ann Broomhall (she / her)

In Her Own Words:

Becoming a psychologist is for me, how I combine my empathy, passion for human dignity, resilience and strong desire for fairness.

I am proud to be a part of the LBGTQIA+ community, and it brings me deep satisfaction to be able to provide warm, informed gender and identity affirming care to all that may need it.

I have not specialised my practice/client-base because I love working with people from all walks of life; whether you're a brick-layer, single-mum, migrant, lawyer, farmer, sex-worker or student.

I also currently work with a broad variety (within my scope of knowledge) of neurodivergence and mental health conditions;

• Autistic and ADHD individuals

• OCD

• Bipolar

• C-PTSD

• Grief

• Anxiety and Depression

Additionally, my mother worked in DV for 20 years in NSW when I was growing up and seeing the impact she made on so many families has been incredibly inspiring.

I was recently diagnosed with ADHD and confirmed to be autistic.

I believe my "special interest" is human behaviour!

I feel honoured to witness and hold the good and the bad with my clients, and be trusted with their vulnerable process.

My personal philosophy is informed by the brilliant Audre Lorde:

"We are all in the process of becoming".

We never stop becoming.
