Description

I’m Amberley Meredith, a registered psychologist with more than 25 years in mental health and over 60,000 hours spent in therapeutic conversations. Over that time, I’ve learned as much about myself as I have about the people I’ve supported. I’ve come to appreciate how meaningful it can be to ask the right questions about our experiences, to notice the subtle influences that shape how we see ourselves, to listen to our inner world with compassion, and to create space for reflection without judgment.

Adaptable Sustainable Psychology (ASP) grew out of working with a diverse array of people and from my own journey—years of noticing influences and patterns, learning what supports us, and finding ways to stay grounded in our values and relationships. ASP brings together psychological ideas, curiosity and self-reflection, offering perspectives for those interested in exploring their inner world with greater gentleness and clarity.

My hope is simple: that my work invites others to explore their own questions, consider kinder inner narratives, and engage thoughtfully with their sense of connection—to themselves and to the people who matter most.


The Adaptable Sustainable Psychology Collection – Book 1


The Subtle Injury of Influence

Managing experiences, people and media that affect your mental health

We are constantly influenced—by our experiences, people, media, and the rapid-paced and information rich world around us. Shaping our beliefs, behaviours, and sense of safety in ways that impact our mental health and wellbeing.

In The Subtle Injury of Influence, we begin to recognise and manage these influences with clarity and compassion. By honouring our uniqueness and cultivating self-awareness, we delve into how to navigate modern life while staying emotionally grounded.

You’ll explore how to:

  • Recognise internalised messages that undermine confidence
  • Identify and manage the emotional impact of experiences,             media and relationships
  • Develop self-compassion as a foundation for change
  • Begin the journey toward feeling better and coping well


Based on over 25 years of experience, psychologist Amberley Meredith M.Sc., draws on evidence-based, person-affirming practices to offer insights and tools that support your journey through life’s challenges—with respect, care, and hope.
