Qualifications

I am a fully qualified Psychotherapist. I am fully accredited and registered with the Irish Association For Counselling and Psychotherapy -IACP. This ensures that I maintain the standards of the profession and engage in continuous professional development. It is very important for anyone looking for a new therapist to ensure that the therapist they choose is registered with a professional body for ethical and safety considerations.  I graduated with a Bachelor of Science (Honours Degree) in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy from IICP College. I am also registered with the William Glasser Institute and am certified in the use of reality therapy. I have over 20 years’ experience in the education and leadership sector, and I became a therapist as a later career.

Main Theoretical Approaches

Integrative Psychotherapy, Person-Centred Psychotherapy, Choice Theory and Reality Therapy. I have specific experience working in the following areas: depression, anxiety, abuse, trauma, inter-generational trauma, self-esteem, family conflict, family dynamics, inner child work, fertility, isolation/loneliness, relationship issues, anger, loss, separation, disenfranchised grief, work related stress, and many others.

I work with clients in person and online also. I strive to create a safe space for clients to share their experiences, within a non-judgemental, warm, therapeutic relationship. I hope to help my clients to build happier, more fulfilling lives, through developing clients’ awareness of how they are thinking and feeling, build self-compassion, acceptance and heal past hurt and trauma.

I have a  passion for helping individuals navigate the complexities of life, and in my work I strive to foster a sense of trust and connection, ensuring that every client feels heard and supported on their path to healing and growth.
