There are so many different types of counselling available out there. There is no one size fits all. We are, each of us, unique, with our own particular hopes, needs and experiences. Integrative counselling recognises this, combining aspects of varying approaches to provide a therapeutic space fitted to you and you alone. 

My work centres around resilience-building, emotional regulation, resourcing and post-traumatic growth but central to all of this is your safety.

I combine aspects of: humanistic therapy, psychodynamic therapy, creative therapy, inner critic / inner child work, children’s focusing, biospirituality, wholebody focusing and relational wholebody focusing, cognitive behavioural therapy, transactional analysis, attachment theory, existential therapy and systems therapy.

Focusing is foundational to my work, providing a gentle and resourcing space to breathe, to choose and to open to the body’s own healing wisdom.

I have experience working with a range of issues including:

• Trauma & PTSD

• Domestic Abuse

• Systemic Oppression

• Stress Management

• Bullying

• Shame

• Grief & Loss

• Anxiety & Panic

• Chronic Illness

• Digestive Issues

• Pain Management

• Cancer

• Life Transitions

• Menopause

• Spirituality

• Parenting

I have a small private practice in Whitehead, on the North Coast of Ireland, and work face to face with children and face to face and online with adults.  

 I love what I do and the people I have the privilege to work with and strive to create a safe, supportive space where the client’s own felt experience and inner resources can be explored on their path to healing.
