I have extensive experience working with young children, adolescents and adults. Through a nurturing environment I will ensure that you are respected and listened to. Life can seem very demanding, challenging, causing a lot of stress/anxiety. Therapy provides a safe space to discuss these difficulties. By fostering a compassionate and trusting therapeutic relationship, together we can explore emotions, cultivate resilience and develop positive coping skills.

Clients whom I have worked with are mostly seeking a safe and trusting space where they can be listened to at a deep level and their personal history better understood and integrated through a trauma lens. Often something happened that made it unsafe for them to be who they really are which resulted in life long self limiting beliefs. They are seeking change and are willing to commit to personal work that begins to help to reduce these long held self limiting internal belief systems.

Are you having difficulty coping? Do you feel tired all the time and lack interest in everyday life? You may be fed up with feeling stuck, struggling with negative thoughts or having little to no confidence in yourself. You might not even remember a time when things didn’t feel this way. But one thing is for sure: you’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to feel like yourself again. You’re ready to take control of your situation. Most of all, you’re ready to love life again & to face your future with a sense of hope.

We are all capable of solving our own problems and finding our own peace of mind. Sometimes we need to understand why we are feeling, thinking or behaving in a certain way. Counselling is a treatment where each counselling session is a safe and regular space for a person to think and talk about themselves and the world they live in. Life can throw situations our way which may seem unmanageable. My aim as a counsellor is to support each person as they gain an insight and understanding into these difficulties, while also supporting them as they make any changes needed to make themselves feel better.

I am a fully accredited, Garda vetted counsellor working in Caragh, Naas and online. The client is always at the centre of the counselling process and their holistic psychological welfare is of utmost importance. Our counselling space is a safe environment where the beliefs and values of the client are respected and their sense of independence and growth are nurtured.Initially, I see my role as one of facilitating the individual’s exploration of their thoughts, feelings, and beliefs. My integrative training then allows me to be fluid in my approach and draw on other schools of psychotherapy as our counselling journey progresses.

I work from an eclectic approach and draw on various theories and techniques, including humanistic, attachment and CBT. How I work will depend on what is best for you at any one time. Most important is that we build a collaborative working relationship where you feel safe to explore what is happening for you right now. Are you experiencing stress, depression or low mood? Do you have relationship difficulties, lack self confidence or feel stuck? Would you like to make changes, understand yourself and your problems better and foster fulfilling and happy relationships?

Hazel believes therapy should be a collaborative process where the therapist provides a safe, non judgemental environment. This facilitates healing by giving the client the space to process difficulties and build awareness of patterns and behaviours that may be unhelpful or causing distress. Hazel believes awareness creates conscious choices which lead to a more fulfilled life.

Sometimes life can just feel out of kilter and we don't know why, or the weight of every day life is heavy. When we feel like this it can be helpful to have someone to talk to who is not already involved and invested in your life. I work across a spectrum of mental health concerns, but have a particular interest in trauma, grief/loss, maternal mental health (in particular crisis pregnancy and miscarriage), addiction, depression, anxiety, low-self esteem and perfectionism.

To me, therapy isn’t just about looking at the problems but also finding the solutions. It’s about learning to take back control of your life so you find your unique road towards self-acceptance, contentment and success. I have a great passion for my profession and I believe that my knowledge and expertise could be useful to those who crave the desire to change but are unsure of the steps to take to achieve this. And while you must walk this path of change on your own, I will support you every step of the way until you will manage it independently.
