I am an integrative psychotherapist working relationally and in a trauma-informed way with adults aged 18 and over.

​

Many of the people I work with have spent a long time coping on their own. They may feel overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected, ashamed, stuck in repeating patterns, or simply aware that something no longer feels right. Others come with experiences of trauma, loss, relationship difficulties, neurodivergence, or emotional pain that has become difficult to carry alone.

​

I believe our ways of coping develop for a reason. What may now feel overwhelming, confusing, or self-critical often began as an understandable response to difficult experiences. Therapy is not about judging those patterns or trying to get rid of them. It is about becoming curious about how they came to be, understanding what they have been trying to protect, and discovering new ways of relating to yourself.

​

I see therapy as a collaborative relationship built on trust, honesty, kindness, and curiosity. Together, we create a space where nothing has to be hidden, and nothing has to be shared before you're ready. We move at a pace that feels manageable, allowing difficult experiences to be explored with care rather than pressure.

​

My work is grounded in psychodynamic and relational psychotherapy and informed by contemporary trauma-informed, somatic, and neurobiological understanding. Rather than focusing on techniques alone, I pay close attention to your unique experience, recognising that every person's story, relationships, and way of coping are different.

​

I am a pre-accredited member of the Irish Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (IACP) and hold a BA (Hons) in Counselling and Psychotherapy from Munster Technological University. Ongoing supervision, professional development, and personal therapy are an essential part of my practice and help me offer therapy that is thoughtful, ethical, and grounded.
