Farrah helps Adults, Parents, Children & Adolescents who are experiencing difficulties with their emotions, behaviour and relationships. I offer In-person and online appointments.. My approach to treatment is guided by the person who walks through the door. I do not believe there is a one-size-fits-all form of therapy and the treatment will be tailored to each client's needs. I use an integrative approach that involves humanistic, art therapy, psychodynamic, sabd tray, cbt, gestalt and inner child work to name a few.

Clients who attend my practice are adults who feel stuck—anxious, empty, or caught in patterns they can't break. Some come exhausted by worry that won't quiet. Others feel numb, going through motions without joy. Many are navigating hard transitions: parenthood, loss, career changes, and relationship endings. Some repeat the same fights or choose partners who can't meet them. What they share is a willingness to understand themselves. I help by offering a space where you don't have to perform. I listen differently—tracking patterns beneath the surface. Together, we connect dots you couldn't see alone.

Are you someone who longs for genuine connection but feels trapped in patterns of self-doubt, conflict, or control? Perhaps you are navigating trauma, an eating disorder, or relational struggles — perhaps caring deeply for others while feeling unseen yourself. Beneath the overwhelm, often my clients want to feel safe in their own skin, to understand their emotions, and to build relationships grounded in trust, balance, and authenticity. Together, we work toward calm, confidence, and connection that lasts.

Through many years supporting clients with a myriad of challenges I have discovered that one of their greatest needs is for hope - an expectation and desire that change is possible. It is an absolute privilege to walk some of that journey to hope with my clients and I would be delighted to explore together how I can support you. I have a breadth of experience in counselling in private practice, with community based counselling services, on Employee Assistance Programmes, at a residential drug rehabilitation centre and in supporting those affected by their involvement in the criminal justice system.

I help people who feel overwhelmed by stress, caught in anxiety, or weighed down by low mood. Many clients come to therapy wanting to feel more like themselves again or to understand why things feel so difficult. My work is about creating space to explore these feelings safely and at your own pace.

Many people come to therapy feeling stuck on patterns of anxiety, self-doubt, or difficult relationships. You may find yourself replaying conversations, worrying about decisions, or feeling frustrated by repeated challenges in life. These experiences can feel isolating and exhausting, making it difficult to understand how to move forward.

I am a MIACP Multilingual (English, Italian, Romanian) qualified Psychotherapist. As of now, I am currently pursuing a four-year Clinical & Professional MA in Psychoanalysis at UCD School of Medicine. I have completed additional training in Couples Therapy, Family Therapy, CBT for Menopausal Symptoms, Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST), 'Lets Talk About Suicide', Logotherapy and Existential Analysis, and Death Doula. I strongly hold the belief that worry, and sadness take up a lot of people's time, and it can be challenging to concentrate on anything other than simply existing, and that could bring unhappiness!
