About me
The aspiration for our time working together in counselling is to be an experience and interaction that you look forward to, not without it's challenges and difficult circumstances to work through yet always approaching with a curious mindset for sustainable long term change.
I recognise how hard it can be to find the right fit so I advocate for a "try it before you buy it" approach. Consider having an initial session with me to assess whether there is a mutual fit before proceeding. If it does not align with your needs, I will do my best to guide you towards a suitable alternative.
During our session's I will not merely nod along passively or provide superficial feedback; instead, I intend to engage deeply, ensuring that you feel heard and offering insightful reflections where needed. I will actively participate in the sessions, answer your questions, provide fresh perspectives, challenging when needed, appropriate self disclosure and fostering a collaborative environment that encourages innovative approaches.
By reflecting on your past experiences we can provide valuable context, identify areas requiring support in the present and facilitate necessary adjustments in patterns, behaviors, and relationships.
Individuals I work alongside frequently liken their interactions with me to a blend of counselling and coaching. In many instances, I tend to agree. While some seek counselling to effect changes, others engage in the process to reflect on circumstances. My approach is adaptable to cater to your specific requirements.
As an Integrative counsellor with 11+ years of experience in a therapeutic setting, I am a registered member of the BACP and an accredited member of the NCS. My flexible services include face-to-face sessions located in Coleraine, Walking Therapy in Coleraine, and Online Therapy sessions for individuals within Ireland, the UK, Europe, and the United States.
Throughout my career, I have worked with individuals and groups in various settings, including counselling rooms, hostels, prisons, probation offices, gyms, schools, and family homes.
I invite you to explore my approach and personality by visiting my Instagram page - Compassionately Curious (https://www.instagram.com/compassionatelycurioustherapy/).
Our enquiry call and first session offers a valuable opportunity for you to ask any questions and evaluate whether my approach and personality align well with your needs. I look forward our call and the possibility of collaborating together.

Member organisations
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
The National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society
This Not For Profit association of counsellors and psychotherapists aim to support the counselling profession, members and training organisations.
In 2013 the NCS register was accredited by the Professional Standards Authority under the Accredited Voluntary Register Scheme. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred).
Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision.
Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training.
All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
