I am a fully accredited Counsellor & Psychotherapist with IACP. I am trained in EMDR for adults, children and adolescents. I hold a BSc (Hons) degree in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy along with a H'Dip in Coaching Psychology. My approach to my practice is integrative, where the clients' needs guide the therapy process. I am particularly interested in using internal family systems (IFS) and EMDR and draw from several theoretical frameworks, such as person-centred, transactional analysis, attachment, Gestalt, object relations, and solution-focused therapy.

I offer online sessions and limited in-person weekend appointments in Cork, with therapy usually taking place weekly at a consistent time.
I work with adults who may feel overwhelmed by anxiety, past experiences, or patterns in relationships that leave them feeling stuck or disconnected. Many people come to therapy carrying things they have held alone for a long time, unsure where to begin. In our work together, we create a space where experiences can be explored with care and curiosity, helping you understand what may be shaping how you feel and respond in your life.

You might find yourself constantly overthinking, carrying the weight of past experiences, feeling disconnected from yourself or others, or wondering why you keep repeating the same painful patterns. I offer a warm, supportive space where you can speak openly, feel heard without judgement and begin to make sense of your experiences.

I offer both in-person and online sessions via Zoom, with weekday and evening appointments available to fit around your life.
Life looks fine, but doesn't feel it? Let's figure out why. Deciding to seek support is one of the most courageous things you can do for yourself. Many of the people I work with are used to coping on the outside while inside feeling anxious, overwhelmed or disconnected from yourself. Life may look busy and full — yet something still feels off. Perhaps you're overthinking, struggling in relationships, carrying the weight of other people's needs, or finding it hard to switch off.

Nosce Te Ipsum. Therapy begins with a dialogue about what indeed brought the client into the therapeutic setting. Clients’ thoughts, feelings and experiences provide much of the fodder for a therapeutic dialogue. Much of the work in therapy involves making sense of these thoughts and emotions. The therapist educes the client’s stories; clients narrate and share them. This integrative framework provide the lens in which I listen and connect to the narratives and presenting issues of my clients. As the tempo takes its momentum, a gradual progression of humanistic kinship, trust and understanding between my client and I are entrenched.

I help by offering a calm, professional space to make sense of what is happening, identify what keeps them stuck, and build practical, realistic steps forward.

The stress of modern life can lead us to experience anxiety, depression and many other symptoms. Whilst bereavement, change and loss are all natural processes, they can also be painful and destabilizing which can create feelings of anger, helplessness and vulnerability. Challenges in the present can also unearth experiences from our past which we might not have had the opportunity to fully understand and process. These feelings can seriously impact on our lives including relationships, physical health and work such that it can sometimes feel we are out of control.

FAQ - About In Person Therapy
What are the benefits of in-person therapy?
In-person therapy offers several benefits that some people find highly valuable for their mental health treatment. Being present in the same room as your therapist can create a stronger sense of connection and allow for more nuanced communication through body language. Some people may also find it easier to focus in therapy when they are in a dedicated space and away from potential distractions related to home or work; attending an in-person session provides a clear boundary between therapy time and the rest of your life. For certain therapeutic approaches, such as Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), exposure therapy, or somatic therapy, being in person may be particularly important, as these therapies benefit from the therapist being able to observe and respond to a client’s physical cues effectively. Additionally, some individuals simply feel more comfortable discussing sensitive or painful topics when they are face-to-face with their therapist rather than on a screen.

When should I choose in-person therapy over online therapy?
In-person therapy may be a better choice when you need a structured therapeutic environment separate from your daily life, when you find it difficult to focus or feel comfortable in an online setting, or when privacy at home is a concern. It may also be more appropriate if you are dealing with severe mental health symptoms that require close monitoring or if your therapy involves approaches that rely heavily on observing physical cues. On the other hand, if convenience, scheduling flexibility, or access to specialists outside your immediate area are priorities, online therapy may be a better fit. Many therapists offer both options, so you can also discuss with a provider which format might work best for your specific situation.

How do I find an in-person therapist?
You can use Psychology Today's therapist directory to find an in-person therapist in your area. You can search by location, insurance accepted, specialty areas, therapeutic approaches, and other criteria to narrow down providers who meet your needs. Each therapist profile includes information about their credentials, areas of expertise, and whether they offer in-person sessions. Once you have identified potential therapists, you can contact them directly through the directory to schedule an initial consultation and determine whether they are a good fit before committing to ongoing treatment. When reaching out, it can be helpful to confirm their availability for in-person appointments, their office location, and whether they accept your insurance.
