51 Clontarf Road Dublin, County Dublin D03
I am based in Dublin and offer in person and online appointments. I am a trauma informed integrative psychotherapist, meaning I tailor each session to the clients unique needs, preferences and goals. My approach is client-centric, with a focus on creating a warm, compassionate, and non judgemental space where clients feel seen, heard, and understood.
Therapeutic interventions include humanistic, psychodynamic, behavioural approaches including cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), schema therapy, somatic therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy. I specialise in both short term solution focused therapy and deeper work. I hold an M.A. in Integrative Psychotherapy.
