In therapy, you can expect a safe and supportive space where your thoughts and feelings are met with empathy, compassion, and respect. The focus is on understanding your experiences without judgment, building trust, and working together at a pace that feels right for you.
I am accredited with the IACP and have almost 20 years or experience. I have expertise in CBT and Internal Family Systems work. I recently completed a two year masters at University College Dublin for Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy.
