Hello, I'm Dr Emily Mills, founder of Empowerment Psychology! My goal in having a psychology practice was to create a safe space where healing, growth and transformation can occur. I strongly believe that everyone has the ability to heal themselves with the right tools and experiences. I believe that my job is the best job in the world as I am allowed and privileged to walk with people in their time of need to help process and understand their realities and make changes into the people they would like to become. I am so blessed to share in these journeys to healing on a daily/hourly basis. I am honoured that you have chosen Empowerment Psychology to start this journey with.
I am a clinical psychologist with over 12 years experience, working in community mental health and the private sector. I completed my Doctor of Psychology right here in Townsville at James Cook University, after completing my undergraduate at Griffith University on the Gold Coast. I am a registered psychologist and endorsed as a Clinical Psychologist. A Clinical Psychologist has specialist training in psychological assessment and therapy with diagnosed psychiatric and/or mental health disorders. I have always strived to achieve a psychology practice that feels like you are safe to explore your challenges with someone who really cares.
I have an interest in trauma, attachment and dissociation, with experience in child, youth and adult mental health. I work with techniques such as Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
I am passionate about rural mental health and had my own radio show in Moranbah which is focused on providing mental health guidance to the community.
I also regularly facilitate group training, by providing group training to the Mater Hospital Townsville on a monthly basis.
Empowerment Psychology is a safe space. I would love to be able to help you overcome challenges and begin the process of empowerment. Get in
