Counselling in Kilcullen

I work with clients to understand their lives better and help them figure out why they feel the way they feel by providing a compassionate space for people to find solutions that work for them.

I see my work in counselling as helping you as a client connect with yourself at a deeper level – to explore the relationship with yourself so that you can discover your own wisdom and empowerment within. I am experienced helping clients in the areas of Trauma, Bereavement and Grief, Stress management, Personal Growth, Addiction, Anxiety, Eating disorders, Relationship difficulties, Sexual abuse, Depression, Low Self Esteem, Psychosomatic conditions, Chronic Disease, Self-harm, Identity issues and OCD.

I offer a warm and confidential space for you to bring whatever concerns and challenges you may have. The initial free consultation session allows you to share what you are coming for and also for us to see if it feels right to begin to work together. I work in a Relational and Mindful way. My initial priority is to create a sense of ease and safety within which we can explore the challenges you are experiencing. We then work together to understand, and feel into how you experience your inner and outer world. This creates understanding and the opportunity to find ways to meet your difficulties and create new possibilities.

The client is always at the centre of the counselling process and their holistic psychological welfare is of utmost importance. Our counselling space is a safe environment where the beliefs and values of the client are respected and their sense of independence and growth are nurtured.Initially, I see my role as one of facilitating the individual’s exploration of their thoughts, feelings, and beliefs. My integrative training then allows me to be fluid in my approach and draw on other schools of psychotherapy as our counselling journey progresses.

My goal as your counsellor is to make you feel supported, heard, and understood as you make this important decision to invest in yourself and your future. Each of us possesses intuitive wisdom about what we want and need for a healthy and balanced life. Counselling lets us dig deep and bring that inner knowing to the surface, into our awareness. Once we know better, we can do better, working toward positive change, healing, and peace.
