Question 1

What are the rates for counselling and psychotherapy?

Accepted Answer

Sessions are €50 per hour.

Question 2

What is your cancellation policy?

You can pay in advance through Revolut or bank transfer, or pay by cash or card in person when we meet.

Question 4

How do I get started with therapy in Cork?

Accepted Answer

You can get in touch to arrange an initial session. There is no pressure beyond that. It is simply a first step, and we can take it from there.

Question 5

Where are you based?

Accepted Answer

I offer psychotherapy and counselling sessions in Ashdale House in Blarney and McHugh Counselling Rooms in Cork City.

Question 6

What happens in a first therapy session?

Accepted Answer

The first session is a place to begin at your own pace. There is no pressure to explain everything straight away. We take time to get a sense of what feels comfortable and manageable for you.

Question 7

Is therapy confidential?

Accepted Answer

Yes. What you share in therapy is confidential. There are a small number of exceptions, for example where there is a risk of serious harm or a legal obligation. These can be explained clearly at the start.

Question 8

How do I know if psychotherapy is right for me?

Accepted Answer

You do not need to be in crisis to come to therapy. Many people begin therapy because they feel overwhelmed, emotionally stuck, disconnected from themselves, or are struggling with difficult experiences, relationships, or patterns they no longer want to carry alone.

Question 9

Do you work with neurodivergent adults?

Accepted Answer

Yes. I am neurodivergent and work with neurodivergent (young) adults and aim to offer a supportive, non-judgemental, and adaptable therapeutic space that respects different ways of thinking, feeling, processing, and experiencing the world.
