Vinity Gill
REGISTERED PSYCHOLOGIST
Vinity Gill is the Principal Psychologist at Moksha Therapy Psychology Practice, located in Katoomba in the beautiful Blue Mountains. With more than two decades of experience, Vinity offers a refined, compassionate, and deeply client-centred approach to psychological care. Her work supports emotional wellbeing, holistic healing, behaviour support, early childhood intervention, and NDIS-related therapeutic support for people of varying abilities, always grounded in respect, warmth, and genuine understanding.
As a registered psychologist, Vinity holds a Master’s in Child and Adolescent Mental Health and a Master’s in Brain and Mind Science. She brings extensive experience within the NDIS as a Behaviour Support Specialist, supporting children, families, and individuals with complex needs through considered, person-centred behaviour support and early childhood intervention. Her practice is grounded in systemic and trauma-informed care, drawing on evidence-based therapeutic approaches to support clients navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, emotional regulation, and life transitions.
Vinity’s connection with equine-assisted therapy was shaped through her time at Amaroo Equine, where her relationship with her equine partner, Buzz, became a meaningful part of her professional and personal journey. The experience of being met with quiet presence, without pressure or expectation, deepened her appreciation for the unique healing potential of horses.
As Vinity continues to deepen her knowledge in equine-assisted therapy, she is thoughtfully integrating this learning into her broader therapeutic and NDIS practice, including assessment, formulation, functional behaviour assessment, and tailored behaviour support planning. She uses the wisdom of the horse–human connection to create gentle, experiential opportunities for clients to build trust, communication, emotional regulation, self-awareness, and confidence within a safe and nurturing environment. This integrative approach complements traditional therapy and reflects her commitment to offering meaningful, responsive support that helps clients feel seen, supported, and more connected to themselves.
Outside her clinical work, Vinity finds restoration in nature, horse riding, and the quiet beauty of the outdoors. Her warmth, clinical expertise, and deep respect for the human–horse connection continue to shape her work, guiding clients toward healing, confidence, self-discovery, and a greater sense of possibility.

AND OUR TEAM
EQUINE CO-FACILITATORS
Having calm, healthy, and safe horses as co-facilitators in equine therapy is essential at Amaroo. These horses serve as crucial partners, teachers and co-facilitators in learning and therapeutic sessions, aiding in creating a safe and supportive environment.
Their temperament, health, and personality are carefully considered to ensure they can effectively engage with participants, contributing positively to the therapeutic process.
By prioritising the well-being and suitability of these co-facilitators, Amaroo ensures that its equine learning and therapy sessions are conducive to fostering meaningful connections and experiences for participants.
STABLE HANDS
Our team of Stablehands at Amaroo Equine fulfil a crucial role in caring for the horses' daily needs, encompassing feeding, grooming, exercise, and ensuring overall well-being. They maintain cleanliness and organisation within the stables and paddocks ensuring a healthy and safe environment for the horses.
Additionally, our Stablehands assist during equine-assisted workshops, ensuring the comfort and safety of both horses and participants. Their responsibilities extend beyond the stables, involving care for the land, pastures, and facilities to maintain an optimal environment for equine activities.
Their dedication spans land and stable management, supporting the smooth operation of the facility and contributing to the overall health and welfare of the horses and the Amaroo Equine environment.
