Counselling in BT25

Hello and thanks for visiting my profile, I am a Qualified Psychotherapeutic Counsellor and Clinical Hypnotherapist with experience working with adults. I have an integrative approach which means I can use different counselling approaches such as CBT, Person Centred and Psychodynamic which allows me to provide therapy best suited to your needs. I have a range of experience working with issues such as Anxiety, Depression, Low Self Esteem and Bereavement.

I 'm a BACP Senior Accredited Supervisor/Psychotherapist and an EMDR Europe Consultant Supervisor. I am in a very small cohort (3.5%) of BACP's 48,983 members have attained BACP Senior Accredited status. The extra qualifications, experience and expertise matter when seeking a Counsellor or Supervisor. I lecture on supervision and trauma Nationally & Internationally. I have over 15,000 hrs clinical experience and have held the following job descriptions :- lead of trauma team; counselling manager; Director of Counselling; Clinical Director. I am in a very small group of therapists in Ireland with an MSc. in Psychological Trauma.

I have been a counsellor for 13 years. I have extensive knowledge of working with clients with depression, anxiety, suicide ideation, self-harming behaviours, Trauma and PTSD. I have worked in crisis management with clients with various presenting issues including, abuse, addiction, domestic violence, family breakdown and other mental health issues. I provide individual and couple counselling in a private and professional space. I have qualifications in EMDR,CBT, relationship therapy and solution focussed therapy. I also provide clinical supervision. I provide a bespoke counselling service as I tailor therapy to the clients needs.

I am an integrative counsellor and have worked with clients who have had various issues. I work with clients with depression, anxiety, stress and family problems. This is just a small example of the issues that I have worked with. When working with clients we will work together to understand what the client wants from the therapy. By using the different therapy types I am able to tailor the therapeutic sessions to best suit each individual client. This means that the sessions can be for example structured and goal orientated which would be CBT. Or perhaps Person-centred where the client leads the sessions in their own time.

I’m an experienced therapist, fully accredited with BACP and work with adults, young people and children. I've worked in the private sector, education and community settings covering a wide age range. I also work with private agencies, Employment Assistance Providers and insurance providers. I have a special interest working with teens and have a separate qualification in Counselling Children and Young People. I work with age 8+ years and have over 10 years experience working with under 18s. I'm a recognised therapist with Aviva, AXA and WPA insurance companies.
