Life is a journey, filled with challenges and opportunities for growth. As an intern therapist, I understand that the journey towards healing can be both daunting and rewarding. During sessions, I like to encourage self-reflection which can allow clients to gain a deeper understanding of themselves. After moving from Ireland in 2011, I found that talking to a qualified professional helped me feel validated and supported while settling into a new country, building new relationships and navigating cultural differences.

I am open to any topics you want to talk about including anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, relationship challenges, life transitions, and stress management. I look forward to working with people from diverse backgrounds and supporting clients to be the best version of themselves.

My aim is to meet each client where they are and tailor sessions to their unique needs, fostering a collaborative and empowering experience. I believe it is key that the client feels like they are in control of their therapy journey. I am committed to creating a safe and non-judgmental space where clients can explore their emotions, overcome challenges, and embrace positive change.

I think Leonard Cohen said it best, “There’s a crack, a crack in everything, that’s how the light gets it”. But often when you’re in the middle of a crisis, transition, generally just feeling stuck…it’s hard to see that. It’s hard to imagine that things will get better…that light might make its way in.. and it’s even harder to imagine how that might happen. But it can. With the right support, a space where you can truly be yourself, and a little work, you can start to see the light again and even find your way to a more peaceful, joyful life.

Brilliant 1990s song lyrics aside, I believe that showing up to our time together as my authentic self - sarcasm, laughter, (and even a little swearing) - is the only way to create a real connection with my clients, and that it’s only through a real connection that any progress can happen. I also believe that helping you tap into your authentic self - and then love the heck out of that person - is the most important part of my job.

Mostly because of my own experiences in life, I am passionate about helping people challenged by major transitions, especially at midlife. As the single mother to two (now grown) boys and someone who is risking some later-in-life changes, I honestly believe that it is never too late to figure out who you are meant to be, and I’d be honoured to help. I am also experienced in working with neurodiverse people - specifically ADHD - and people challenged by anxiety and depression.
