I am a fully qualified and fully accredited counsellor and psychotherapist registered withthe Irish Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (IACP) Membership number: M14376. I am fully committed to the codes and ethics of the IACP.
My client approach is person-centred, choice theory and psychoanalytically informed, meaning I will always provide a nonjudgemental environment with an unconditional positive regard for the client, together with empathy focusing on the goals of each client. My study in psychoanalysis greatly informs my practice adding extra depth to my work. In my free time I like to spend time with family and friends, walking, reading, and enjoying music. I have an honours degree in Counselling and Psychotherapy from IICP and a Masters in Psychoanalytic Studies from Trinity College, Dublin

I work with a diverse range of clients from different backgrounds. I work with clients
presenting with issues such as depression, anxiety, bereavement, grief and loss,
abandonment, addiction, sexual abuse, trauma, PTSD, relationship issues, identity, self-esteem and many more. Through my psychoanalytical studies I have a keen interest in object relations and early childhood trauma. The role of the unconscious being evident in repetitive compulsive behaviours and patterns, defense mechanisms, repressed emotions and experiences. Through free association and dreamwork it is possible to access and better understand ourselves and our motivations.

My practice aims to provide a safe and comfortable space for clients to explore and
achieve their goals in an empathic and collaborative therapeutic relationship, where they are the creators of their own destinies
