HEARTH Therapy Studios
Creative & Expressive Therapies
Creative Arts Psychotherapy | EMDR | Clinical Supervision | Learning & Behaviour Support
HEARTH Therapy Studios offers creative therapy grounded in warmth, care, and connection. An inclusive and welcoming space supports reflection, expression, and embodied ways of working, beyond words.
I’m Sam Gummer, a creative arts psychotherapist, EMDR therapist, and learning and behaviour specialist teacher.
My work is grounded in inclusive, person-centred, and trauma-responsive practice, with creativity and relationship at its core. I support people to explore, understand, and integrate their lived experiences in ways that feel safe, meaningful, and true to who they are.
Welcome to HEARTH Therapy Studios, a professional home and creative sanctuary, where you are invited to explore experiences at your own pace in ways that are inclusive, respectful, and supportive.
Not everything that matters can be spoken. What we carry can emerge and find embodied form through art and creative expression.
Ways we can work together
Creative Arts Therapies & Art Psychotherapy
Inclusive, person-centred art psychotherapy that honours identity, individuality, and lived experience through creative, expressive, trauma-responsive practice.
The ARC Initiative
consultative, strengths-based school support through consultation, evaluation, training, and collaboration — grounded in whole-child, inclusive, and affirming practice to foster developmental growth in learning, relationships, sense of self, and wellbeing.
EMDR Therapy
An evidence-based approach that supports the processing of traumatic and distressing experiences, helping reduce their ongoing impact.EMDR is recognised by the World Health Organisation (WHO) and the American Psychiatric Association (APA) as a gold standard treatment for PTSD
Clinical Supervision & Reflective Practice
Supportive supervision for therapists and educators, focused on well-being and sustainable practice.
I acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the First Australians and recognise their unique relationship with the land and water. I also recognise that the Mornington Peninsula is home to the Boon Wurrung/Bunurong members of the Kulin Nation, who have lived here for thousands of years and have traditional connections and responsibilities to the land we walk on. I pay our respects to all Elders, past & present.
Always Was Always Will Be
