We can all feel a bit stuck sometimes... I offer a safe space to help make meaning and process what we are thinking and why. I work with adults mainly 40s-60s negotiating lifes changing dynamics as their parents age, or own children grow up. I work with adults moving into midlife, issues around self-esteem and finding purpose following covid with a new work/life balance. I also work with clients with difficulties in relationships parenting, anxiety and overwhelm, low mood, loss and bereavement and generally how to do life again, process trauma and pts and learning to feel safe.

People are all just trying their best, but it is very normal to struggle with life at times. I like helping people who are feeling stuck get unstuck. I like helping people see that they have the power to make something better from their life. I used to be a homebirth midwife, and I find myself drawn to people who are in big life transitions. Or knowing that there is a change needed that maybe is not yet clear. But much happiness comes from learning to truly appreciate what is real in your life today.

Offering Face to Face and Online therapy. One can present with an issue affecting their contentment in life, but what’s causing it? My approach is a Psychodynamic and Integrative one. Anxiety for example, may be a presenting issue, but what’s causing it? Depression is debilitating, but what’s being depressed? Trauma and coping mechanisms go hand in hand and are as individual as each and every one of us. An issue can be a symptom of something else, or a coping mechanism we have had for years. Through your own process, you will arrive at the root cause creating permanent change and be set free to more contentment.

As a Gestalt psychotherapist, I believe the work of psychotherapy is to discover what needs healing from our past, by noticing how it is showing up in our present. I am deeply interested in exploring the way our life experiences not only shape how we relate to ourselves and others, but also impact the choices we make. I hold a Post-Graduate Diploma in Psychotherapy from the Gestalt Institute of Ireland (SETU), as well as a diploma in Mindfulness and Buddhist Psychology from the Karuna Institute in the UK. I am also a trained support group facilitator.

Why can't I work this out? Will it never go away? How did I get into this? Having questions about our life is normal. The art is answering them. Sometimes life presents its own solutions. Sometimes no mater what we do we just can't make the problem go away. That is where counselling comes in. The professional relationship of counselling provides the opportunity to objectively explore issues. At Prevail, I James Foley, strive to establish a relationship that creates a safe space where you can offload, challenge yourself and hopefully initiate change on the concerns that hold you. Leading to more resilient you for the future.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online or over the phone can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your postcode.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counsellor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counsellors are all licensed mental health professionals. In many countries, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counsellor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counsellors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counsellor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counselling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
