My name is Amy Howie and I am a senior psychologist in private practice and am the director of Live Well Now Psychology and Health Solutions Pty Ltd. I have experience providing clinical individual supervision and mentoring to other psychologists, counsellors, mental health professionals, first responders, educators, and other professionals. I have also provided group supervision to counselling teams and provisional psychologists, as well as provided EAP services and facilitated workshops. I have over 20 years’ experience working with a wide range of client groups and presentations including children, adolescents, adults and couples. I have worked in Government (Juvenile Justice) and Non-government Organisations (Bravehearts, Parentline, Child & Family Services Inc.) and have been in private practice since 2013.  Apart from supervision, training and mentoring services, I currently work with adults and adolescents who present with mental health issues including chronic, severe and complex presentations of anxiety, depression, trauma, pain, adjustment problems, grief, stress, burn out and addictions. I treat clients under Mental Health Treatment Plans, Private Health, Work Cover, Employee Assistance Programs, Redress Scheme and other insurance schemes.

Individual and Group Supervision and Case Consultation Sessions for Staff

Are you seeking an external supervisor for your psychology, counselling, or mental health practitioners, or other staff members? If you’ve employed provisional psychologists without access to an available AHPRA-approved supervisor to fulfill their internship requirements, or if your counselling staff requires case consultation for particularly challenging clients or issues, I can provide valuable support. Additionally, if you have staff members who are not responding well to their current supervisor, or if your organisation lacks sufficient clinical supervisors or expertise in specific areas, an external supervisor can be instrumental.

Some organisations find it beneficial to separate the demands of clinical supervision from staff performance management. Having an external supervisor for clinical issues enables staff to be more open about their client work and allows dedicated time for clinical reflection, fostering improved work quality and professional development. As an AHPRA Psychology Board-accredited supervisor, I am equipped to offer individual and group supervision as both a primary or secondary supervisor for provisional psychologists completing their training. If you’re interested in exploring how external supervision can enhance your organisation’s clinical support, please feel free to contact me for further information.

I am able to offer regular weekly, fortnightly, monthly or one off individual or group supervision sessions at my rooms in Shailer Park, Brisbane, at your organisation in Brisbane or the Gold Coast (minimum of 3hrs), or via video conference. Please contact Amy on 07 3472 5061 or via the Contact page for more information or to discuss your organisation’s supervision needs.

Workshops and Seminars

I can provide short seminar style wellbeing sessions or workshops for your staff within the workplace or via video conference on topics such as stress management, self-care and wellbeing, maintaining a good work/life balance, vicarious trauma, and preventing burnout. I can also provide professional development seminars or workshops for psychologists, counsellors or other mental health practitioners on topics such as understanding trauma, anxiety, depression, anger, and grief, and more, that may assist staff in working more effectively with clients.

Workshops and seminars can be held online via video conference or at your organisation or other location (Brisbane and Gold Coast only). Please contact Amy on 07 3472 5061 or make an enquiry via the Contact page to for more information about my workshops and seminars.

Employee Assistance Program (EAP)

An Employee Assistance Program is a confidential counselling service offered by employers to their employees to support their social and psychological wellbeing. We are currently experiencing a mental health crisis in Australia and many organisations have found that assisting their staff to receive support when needed and maintain positive mental health improves performance and productivity and can also improve staff retention. I have experience providing EAP services to clients and am able to provide short term individual counselling sessions, critical incident debriefing, and facilitate wellbeing seminars for your staff.  Please contact Amy on 07 3472 5061 or via the Contact page do discuss your organisation’s EAP needs.
