Counselling in Newry

With over two decades helping clients overcome life's challenges, I have cultivated compassion and wisdom that come only through time. My career within a transpersonal frame has focused on creating a refuge for those seeking support, using action methods and expressive therapies to facilitate insight, empowerment and healing. I specialize in psychodrama, and incorporate techniques including therapeutic sandtrays containing symbolic figurines and objects for nonverbal exploration; hypnotherapy accessing the subconscious mind's powerful resources; regression accessing formative memories; and art providing creative self-expression.

I am a North West Northern Ireland based experienced BACP registered counsellor providing a non-judgemental, understanding and safe place to explore your inner world. I use a number of different theories and approaches which I can draw on depending on your needs. I have training in person-centred, psychodynamic and cognitive therapies. I offer services through video, phone and in-person. I can help with Abuse, Addictions, Anger management, Anxiety, Bereavement, Child related issues, Cultural issues, Depression, Obsessions, Phobias, Relationships, Self esteem, Self-harm, Sexuality, Spirituality, Stress, Substance Dependency, Suicide.

An Integrative Therapist, trained in Humanistic, Cognitive Behavioural and Psychodynamic approaches to therapy. I'm also undertaking an MA in Anthropology because my approach considers the impact of evolutionary psychology, cultural, and socioeconomical influences. How I work with clients is also underpinned by feminist, gender and queer theory. My aim is to facilitate a space for individuals to talk and explore problems and pain, but also heighten awareness and understanding about the blocks that are maintaining their sense of stagnation. By making what is unconscious conscious we begin to create an effective way forward.

I am a Clinical Psychologist registered with the Health & Care Professionals Council (HCPC). Having worked with children and adult mental health sectors using models of psychological assessment, formulation, and treatment, knowledgeable of our community and voluntary sector. I am privileged to have experience with people from a broad range of cultural backgrounds and levels of complexity. And help them to overcome the language and the culture barriers by speaking the same language with them as I m fluent in Arabic, English, French and Persian.

We are all experiencing anxiety in the world at this time, as we face the uncertainty of a pandemic and attempt to adapt to, and recover some semblance of ‘normal’. Perhaps you face some difficult historical issues or struggle to cope with the challenges of a life transition? Whatever your needs, help is at hand. I offer a safe, contained space, with a professional, relational approach, so that together, we can creatively explore presenting issues & find a meaningful way to navigate change. The shared goal is for my clients to re-emerge with renewed courage & strength, to get back to living their life with meaning & purpose.

Our bodies tell the story of our lives, and everyone struggles sometimes. At Soul Well Counselling, we offer a confidential online and in-person service for all, providing access to therapy for good mental health and well-being. As an Integrative therapist, I believe that each person is an individual, and there is no one form of therapy that can treat each person in all situations. Each person is valued as an individual, and their therapy is tailored to their needs.

I offer a professional, warm and confidential counselling service to help people resolve their issues, enabling them to live a healthier and satisfying life without anxiety. I have experience working in different Health Trusts with adults and young people who are experiencing Anxiety/Depression through issues such as work-related stress, bullying in the workplace/school, low self -esteem/confidence, social anxiety, relationship difficulties, abuse through neglect, physical, sexual, or financial, grief with loss/bereavement, addictions and trauma. (Please call for a brief chat to see if I am the right counsellor for you.)

I always feel that the purpose of being in therapy is not to be in therapy. It is my aim to empower you to explore your situation, your value system and your relationships and then to think about what might not be working for you and how you might make choices to enhance your life. I invite clients to be curious abut themselves, what makes them tick and how their childhoods and life experiences have contributed to their current status. You may have an idea of what you want to achieve in therapy, you may not, but together we can find out what you want for your future. I also offer walk and talk therapy

I am an HCPC registered Clinical Psychologist, ISST certified Schema Therapist and IPT certified Interpersonal Psychotherapist.

Please contact me via email, to arrange a short consultation to see how we can work together to address the issues or difficulties you may be having. Please note that I only work with adults.

Life Coaching - Mental Wellbeing CBT & Mindset Coaching. Are you anxious, stressed, worried, stuck or uncertain about your future?

Adults, children and adolescents all need a space to explore and express their experiences, and for some this tends to be more difficult as they struggle to understand what they're feeling, never mind find the words to describe them to someone. People often find that when they voice their experiences, feelings, and worries, and confide in a professional who can offer support and help them make sense of these, they feel heard, understood, and often a little lighter from sharing the weight of these. I aim to help my clients to feel that little bit lighter.

Welcome to Inner Peace Counselling where I offer you a safe place to be yourself. Imagine a space where you can speak the unspeakable without fear of reproach or judgement; a place where you are understood. So often in everyday life we are inhibited from being our true selves by our fear of being judged and the pressures of the expectations of others. Let Innerpeace counselling be your sanctuary where you can at last express what you truly feel. It is my privilege to listen and hear how life is for you at this moment and to accompany you on your healing journey. To be understood is powerful.

Im here to help you find a safe place where you can get help and acceptance. A place where you can be safe in your vulnerability. A place of healing. I want to help you help you travel the path from trauma to growth. I work from a person centred perspective but integrate other counselling methods. I have worked extensively with first responders and understand your needs.
