With over 15 year experience as a clinical psychologist in the mental health services and hospital settings, I am experienced in working with those with complex challenges (long standing difficulties, early trauma). I have a particular interest in helping people with physical symptoms (chronic pain conditions, functional neurological disorders among others) where medical treatments have not brought relief.
I am a psychoanalytic psychotherapist, working towards accreditation. I regularly contribute on professional training programmes, teaching at masters and doctoral level in Trinity College Dublin and the University of Galway.
