I am a Counselling Psychologist with a masters degree from the university of Pretoria, South Africa. I have worked in a variety of therapeutic environments with clients of all age groups. My approach is integrative, meaning that I incorporate techniques from different approaches to suit my client’s needs. I aim to provide a safe space to explore behaviours or beliefs that may be contributing to emotional challenges and limiting your potential.

Therapy allows an individual to explore their current situation, their relationship to their self, to others, the environment and the social context within which they experience life. It creates a space to explore experiences and associated emotions which often influence choices and behaviours. Change comes about through processing emotions, behaviours and experiences which in turn can strengthen an individuals inner sense of direction, self-esteem and self-resilience. It can provide clarity and insight which enables an individual to see the world from a different perspective, creating the opportunity to find a new way forward.

I aim to create a welcoming and non-judgmental environment where clients feel safe to explore the complexities of their lives. My practice welcomes individuals dealing with a wide range of issues, including but not limited to identity exploration, cultural adaptation, relationship challenges, anxiety, depression, and trauma. Through collaborative and compassionate therapy sessions, I assist clients in gaining insight into their experiences, identifying strengths, and developing coping strategies. My goal is to help clients build self-awareness, resilience, and well-being, empowering them to live authentically.

You are constantly feeling like something is missing. Caring for others is beginning to take its toll on you. You are not sure what is going on but you just know things can not stay the same. Deciding to attend therapy can be challenging. Finding a suitable therapist even more difficult. Trusting a psychologist to take this journey with you can be extremely terrifying and intimidating. If you are looking for someone that will be understanding, supportive but most of all help you achieve your therapeutic goals. Contact me now and begin your process.

“The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction, not a destination.” Carl Rogers. The world we live in is constantly challenging, particularly if we are already feeling stressed or anxious. This stress can lead to lasting feelings of sadness, anxiety or depression. But this does not have to be the case. We all have within us the ability to live a more fulfilled and happier life. A good therapist helps realise this potential by facilitating self-discovery and acceptance and using this for emotional growth.

My expertise lies in helping you express, acknowledge and process your emotions – especially those rooted in anxiety, low self-esteem, stress, abuse or trauma – which can be confusing to articulate.

I am a qualified humanistic and integrative psychotherapist, accredited by the Irish Association of Humanistic and Integrative Psychotherapy (IAHIP). My priority in my practice is to meet people with compassion and warmth. I strive to create a safe and accepting space where you can feel encouraged to explore aspects of yourself you may not typically delve in to. In my work, I employ an integrative approach. I meet with a client for a number of sessions where we can decide together what might be the most beneficial way of working together.

Life and relating to others can at times feel very hard. Please do contact me if any or a combination of the following reflect your experience as my support seems to be most effective in these areas: Feeling alone or isolated; living with a sense of fear, dread or being overwhelmed; trying to cope with events that are or have been ‘traumatic’; lacking confidence in your own abilities and judgement; or having a sense of deep pain. I believe and know that despite the pain and distress these can cause, there is also the possibility for healing, growth, making changes and (re)finding a sense of self, purpose and joy in life again.

I work with children and adults. As an Art Psychotherapist, I'll use art as a medium to enable clients to communicate in a safe environment and to help them reflect on emotional issues and gain confidence and self-awareness. I use a client centred approach and therefore I would use a variety of treatments to help the client in their therapeutic journey. I am also a qualified EMDR therapist, specialising in TRAUMA. EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) is a psychotherapy that enables people to heal from the symptoms and emotional distress that are the result of disturbing life experiences.

At Orwellness, we offer a relaxed and calm space where clients can meet with therapists/consultants in a comfortable and private environment. Discretion and friendliness are the hallmarks of our ethos.The solutions to most of our problems are within us, but sometimes they are hidden. Counselling is a space that you can use to explore your issues and problems safely, with gentle guidance from a therapist to help you find the “light inside”. Each person is unique, and even though we all have similar needs in life, our life experiences can affect how we perceive ourselves, other people and our situations.

Couples counselling is my specialist area. This ranges from marriage counselling, to same sex relationship therapy. I use different processes to explore the triggers & find new ways to manage couple conflict. Each relationship is unique & needs nurturing, whether your intention is to re-build the relationship or to have a safe space before moving on.

Therapy can provide an opportunity to explore and process your troubling thoughts and emotions, to gain more clarity and a sense of balance. Unprocessed emotions and traumas can be retained in our bodies, and we may start to feel disconnected. I believe that our physiology plays an important role in the process of healing . So, the body is one of the most valuable tools for the processing and integration of wounds and traumas we might carry.
