Therapy must feel safe before it can be productive. To this end, I initially attempt to provide a sense of ease in counseling sessions. From there the conversation tends to reveal what you might like to get out of therapy- these goals can be anything at all: from wishing to feel less anxious, sad, irritable or troubled, to addressing relationship difficulties at home or at work, to trying to better understand a feeling of being unfulfilled, or to think or feel differently about the past. In many cases, the goal is to just to have a safe place to discuss anything at all in a confidential, non-judgemental setting.

“The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction, not a destination.” Carl Rogers. The world we live in is constantly challenging, particularly if we are already feeling stressed or anxious. This stress can lead to lasting feelings of sadness, anxiety or depression. But this does not have to be the case. We all have within us the ability to live a more fulfilled and happier life. A good therapist helps realise this potential by facilitating self-discovery and acceptance and using this for emotional growth.

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.

I have been working with clients since 2006 and my aim is always to offer a space for each client, adolescent or adult, to feel comfortable and safe. It is important to me to offer an experience of ease and flow to the client. I work in a non-judgement and real way which I have found leads the client into a relaxed place within themselves. I am holistically focused, so this means I have quite a few tools in the toolbox to approach the various topics or issues which arise in each session. My motto is Answering the Call of The Heart and embody this in my everyday practice and that spills into my work in the therapy room.

Life can be challenging and can bring hardships, conflict and pain. Often people seek therapy at a moment of crisis where they want change in their lives. Psychotherapy offers the possibility for an individual to explore various aspects of their life and be listened to in a way that is rarely possible with family or friends. My experience includes working with psychiatric diagnoses, those affected by issues and symptoms of anxiety, stress, depression, bereavement, addiction, relationship issues, questions of gender and sexuality.

Do you wake up with a knot in your stomach? Does your mind race with "what-ifs"? I specialise in helping adults in Rathfarnham/Dublin 16 manage anxiety and panic attacks using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Visit my website to learn how we can stop the struggle.
You might be functioning well on the outside—holding down a job, caring for family—but inside, you feel exhausted from overthinking or constantly predicting the worst. Whether it is generalised anxiety, work stress, or burnout, the pressure to "keep it together" is isolating. You may have tried to "just think positive," only to find the anxious thoughts returning.

I Specialise in Narcissistic Abuse Recovery.
I suffered from anxiety&panic attacks for 22yrs due to bullying & narcissistic abuse, which held my back from achieving my goals until I got help. Being a Co-dependent people pleaser meant that I was putting other people’s wants and needs before my own, trying to get acceptance, manage the situation and to keep the peace. This was exhausting until I learned how to take my personal power back

People who come to therapy want to make changes in their life. At some time we will all face circumstances which challenge our resilience: illness; bereavement and mortality; depression and anxiety; trauma and violence; relationship problems; career difficulties; loss of identity; spiritual crisis. When difficult experiences leave us feeling helpless and stuck, the work of self-exploration opens new doors of possibility.

Throughout life, many people encounter hardships, emotional distress and anxieties. This can often lead people to become depressed, withdrawn in their relationships, experience low self-esteem, stuck, and ultimately further away from the life they want to live. When we are struggling, we can find it difficult to discover a path towards a fulfilling life. Does any of this sound familiar?

It is hard to describe what psychotherapy is really like. One of us, Jonathan Shedler describes it well.
"We are changing life patterns. There is no path from Point A to Point B that does not traverse the unknown
Real transformation occurs when patient and therapist can enter and embrace that unknown
Perhaps it is like ancient sailors setting out to sea in search of a new and distant land—but uncertain how far they might have to travel before they once again set foot on solid earth, or what they might find when they get there"
There is no substitute for meeting face to face though. And proceeding or not from there.

People can experience difficulties or challenges at any point in their lives, such as anxiety, low mood and trauma. At other times, life events like bereavement, the ending of a relationship or unexpected illness can make people feel upset, distressed and confused. The help and support of a clinical psychologist can help ease these painful feelings and work towards adjustment and an improved sense of well-being. If the source of the difficulties are not obvious at first, a psychological assessment can also be helpful.

I offer a supportive, non judgemental space for whatever is holding you back from living life to the full. Expressing what is on your mind can be the first step towards feeling better. Therapy can involve finding ways to manage life's current challenges whilst also exploring patterns rooted in the past that can keep us stuck. You may need support to recover from loss or trauma, help with an issue, behaviour, or relationship that is causing distress. Perhaps you would simply like space for self-exploration and personal growth. Listening carefully to the unique needs of each individual, I tailor sessions accordingly.
