About Hamish
Hamish Spick is an AHPRA-registered psychologist with eight years working in mental health. He takes a straightforward, friendly approach so people can feel at ease from the first conversation. Hamish believes starting therapy is an act of courage and aims to make the process manageable and clear.
Hamish keeps sessions direct and practical. He listens to what matters most and then works with each person to set realistic goals. Conversations focus on day-to-day challenges like anxiety, stress, mood changes and life transitions rather than jargon or long assessments.
Background and approach
When relationship strain or communication problems come up, Hamish helps people talk through patterns and decide next steps. He also supports clients facing trauma and abuse, grief or end-of-life concerns, immigration stress, and difficulties such as guilt, shame or isolation. Hamish draws on a range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts them to each person's needs.
That means using specific strategies that match a person's goals rather than a fixed formula. He keeps sessions collaborative and practical, often giving exercises or short tasks to try between meetings. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and take place online by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.
Hamish uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and scheduling is organised through the site's booking process.
How Hamish’s approaches work online
Hamish uses several evidence-based techniques that translate well to online work. Cognitive approaches focus on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments to reduce anxiety and low mood. Acceptance-based strategies teach ways to notice difficult feelings and carry on with valued actions despite them, which helps with stress and life transitions. Schema-informed ideas look at long-standing patterns and offer steps to change repeating behaviours that cause relationship or self-esteem problems.Choosing the right way of working is a collaborative process. Hamish will talk with each person about problems, preferences and goals, then suggest which techniques to try first. He checks in regularly and adjusts the approach based on what helps most for that person.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video is useful for a full conversation and exercises that need visual cues. Phone lets people talk when bandwidth is limited or when they prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are handy for short check-ins, quick problem-solving and keeping momentum between longer sessions. These options make it easier to continue therapy around work, family and daily life.
