The Workhub, 77 Camden Street Dublin, County Dublin D02
I am a psychotherapist specialising in trauma, and I use Somatic Experiencing (SE) and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapies to support healing. My therapy space is designed to feel calm, safe, and welcoming. I am also lucky to have the company of Nanuk and Oscar, my dogs, who have a wonderfully grounding presence in the room. Many clients find that having them nearby adds an extra layer of comfort and ease — particularly when working through difficult or intense emotions. Sessions are collaborative and client-led. YOU are always in control.
Somatic Experiencing works with the body's natural ability to process and release stress and trauma. Rather than focusing solely on talking about your experiences, we pay attention to physical sensations, movements, and impulses. Sessions are gentle and paced to your comfort — you won't be pushed to revisit painful memories directly.
If you are interested in finding out more please do not hesitate to get in touch and we can arrange a phone call to discuss how I may help you.

"
Our first session is for us to get to know each other and begin to understand what you need. From there, I draw on a range of approaches, weaving together Somatic Experiencing, EMDR, and other evidence-based methods as your process unfolds. Healing from trauma is rarely linear, and the way we work will always be guided by you — your pace, your needs, and what feels right at any given time."
