I completed an Advanced Master Programme on the Treatment of Trauma with The National Institute for the Clinical Application of Behavioural Medicine and have been trained in Lifespan Integration, CRM, and Brainspotting.
I am a Counselling Psychologist with over 18 years of experience (both in the USA and in Ireland), providing psychological help and treatment to adults with mental health issues. I received my Bachelor's Degree in Pure Psychology from University College Dublin, and I received my Master's Degree in Mental Health Counselling from Seattle University in Washington State USA. I believe that people who seek out therapy are self-striving individuals motivated to grow and develop authentically. As a practicing Counselling Psychologist, I recognize the importance of creating and maintaining a safe, non-judgmental space for my clients.

This includes Brainspotting, narrative, EMDR, cognitive behavioural, and body-based mindfulness techniques that strengthen relationships with self and others.
I have provided psychotherapy to clients for a variety of challenges including trauma, depression, anxiety, and family dynamics.

I help people make new choices in their thinking and behaviour and better choices to improve resilience and health. Together, we explore ways that will help gain insight that leads to making adjustments for living more authentically and having healthier relationships.

You promised you would not watch online porn or live sex cams again. You feel guilt and shame because you want to stop but cant. You visited a sex worker during lockdown and now you are worried you might have put the health of your family at risk. You plan to spend a short time on dating apps and find yourself spending hours on them, unable to put them down, feeling desperate and hopeless. You have an instant attraction when you meet a particular type of person, believing they are the one. You are in recovery for alcohol / drug addiction, but your compulsive sexual acting out behaviours have increased and you feel guilt and shame.

Brainspotting Counsellors

How does brainspotting work?

Brainspotting works by using eye positioning to identify and process traumatic memories so that a client is better able to move forward and live with less fear. The theory behind brainspotting is that by identifying where a person looks when thinking of traumatic memories, a therapist will be able to guide them to focus on that spot and work with the client to get them out of the “fight, flight, freeze” response associated with the traumatic memory.

Is brainspotting an evidence-based therapy?

Brainspotting is a theory-based alternative therapy. It is one of the newest forms of treatment, so very little research has been completed that examines the mechanism by which it works. The theory behind brainspotting is that eye position can be linked to areas of the brain that store and process memory.

How effective is brainspotting?

Because it is such a new treatment, the effectiveness of brainspotting cannot be quantified. Some people have found it to be effective on its own, or in conjunction with other types of therapy. It is considered an alternative therapy, and it is popular with people for whom more traditional therapies have proven ineffective.

How long does brainspotting take to work?

A typical brainspotting session will last between 60 to 90 minutes. There is no required number of sessions needed to complete brainspotting therapy, but in many cases it is delivered over the course of about six sessions. Clients are encouraged to rate their level of distress prior to a session and again following a session, and to track progress.
