All of the work we do together is underpinned by mindfulness, by mindful awareness, by being awake and conscious, both in session and in your own life, moment to moment.
Welcome, glad you've landed here. The foundation of my offering is rooted in compassion and acceptance, where all of you can be welcomed, witnessed, and understood, with warmth and non-judgment. Many of our current-day difficulties are rooted in old wounding and once adaptive patterns, which no longer support our wellbeing. Sessions may often be experiential, working with experience in the body and tracking nervous system responses. Talking will only get us so far in our healing journey; much of our inner world is held beyond the realms of cognition or words, and so we must access it as such.

Approaches drawn on include mindfulness/meditation, gestalt and psychodynamic theory.
I aim to provide clients with a safe and confidential space to explore personal issues. Working from a humanistic and person centred ethos means I believe that all individuals hold the tools within to heal and grow. When we experience early adversity or traumatic life events, our perception can become clouded, we create defences and these defences disrupt the relationship held with one's true self. Issues such as low self esteem, anxiety and depression arise. I work in a collaborative and empowering yet gentle way to accompany you on your journey of reconnection and healing.

When things feel too much it is hard to respond creatively to life's challenges. Our natural tendency is to seek safety in the known and we may fall into old defensive patterns. This can be at the heart of a feeling of stuck-ness in our lives and may show up in anxiety, depression, anger, relationship difficulties, and the feeling that life is more of a struggle than it needs to be. Mindfulness based psychotherapy offers a non-judgemental exploration of feelings, thoughts and perceptions in present moment, and allows a reflection on what may no longer be helpful.

I am a qualified, accredited therapist working in North Dublin. Originally from England, I have lived in Dublin since 2006, raising my family here. I started my training in South Dublin in 2012, and my passion has taken me to research and develop a deep interest and understanding of Attachment. I believe having this understanding enhances my work with depression, anxiety, bereavement and grief, trauma and parent-adolescent work, in addition to the therapist-client relationship. It is also important for me to use my skills in other areas of my life and, as such I work have lectured at IICP and was a director with Empowerment Plus.

I combine the depth of psychodynamic and transpersonal therapy with the practical and accessible approaches of CBT and mindfulness, where appropriate.
My passion is working with people who want to uncover and embody their truth and develop their inner knowing. Life is full of different pressures and demands. Often, our internal life of emotions, personal challenges and hearts desires are not reflected to us as most important by the world we live in. But if we don't carve out time for ourselves and prioritise our truth and joy, it's easy to feel swept up in the tide rather than living a life that expresses the fullness of your Soul. My journey has taken me from deep psychotherapy to combining psychotherapy and spirituality as a path of truth through transformation.

My work combines a deep knowledge of neuroscience, mindfulness and the subconscious mind-body connection and how it creates people's experiences.
I work with women that feel stuck, particularly in relationships or professional situations that have them feeling overwhelmed, overlooked, unappreciated or undervalued. I help them release any latent beliefs or stories that are holding them back and reconnect to their most powerful and successful selves with a renewed sense of identity, a vision for how they'd like their life to be and the ability to reach their potential to get there.

Mindfulness-Based (MBCT) Counsellors
How does mindfulness-based cognitive therapy work?
Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy originated in the work of John Kabat-Zinn of the University of Massachusetts Medical School. He developed mindfulness-based stress reduction, which is a technique found in yoga and meditation. MBCT is a combination of this type of stress reduction and cognitive behavioral therapy; it essentially quiets emotional distress through mindfulness, utilizing proper breathing and meditation. These techniques aim to bring the individual into the present moment when in a state of distress.
When do I know if I need treatment with mindfulness-based cognitive therapy?
If an individual’s mind is filled with emotional distress and general negativity, the person may feel trapped. A mindfulness-based cognitive therapist can help a person change their thinking patterns as well as their behaviour through calm acceptance and compassion. This therapy can provide an individual with the coping skills needed for a healthier and more constructive life.
What should I expect from mindfulness-based cognitive therapy?
This therapy often takes place in group sessions. A therapist will work with the group as well as with each individual. Meditation and breathing exercises are core practices that aim to invite inquiry and discovery into a person’s troubled mental state. The objective is to identify and lessen negative thoughts and behaviours and move toward optimal health and productivity. The individual will see life in a more realistic way. This therapy is supportive, accepting, and warm.
Is mindfulness-based cognitive therapy effective?
Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy is evidence-based and effective. One study found that people with major depressive disorder have benefitted from this type of therapy; the person accepts their distressed thoughts and also moves into healthier patterns of thinking. This therapy also aims to move an individual away from automatic negative responses. This type of therapy can bring a person lifelong change, with higher levels of satisfaction, less stress, as well as positive emotional and behavioural habits.
