About me
Hello! I am a qualified counsellor and psychotherapist with over 10 years experience in the field of mental health. I have worked with a number of charities and counselling organisations, with a strong focus on supporting people dealing with anxiety, work/university stress, health issues, depression and trauma. I have a particular interest in for working with perinatal issues (birth trauma, postnatal depression, IVF and fertility, miscarriage, new parenthood). My goal is to help clients gain a stronger understanding of what is troubling them so that they can take the steps needed to start feeling better.
I work from a person-centred and integrative approach to therapy. This means I combine techniques from different approaches to therapy based on your own unique issues, tailoring the therapy to you. We will explore the roots of your issues, what keeps you stuck there and what we can do to get you back on the route to happiness.
We all feel a little lost, stuck or overwhelmed at various times in our lives. Anxiety and depression can get the better of us. No one wants to be stuck in a cycle of stress or unhappiness, yet that can be where we find ourselves. Take those first steps towards feeling better today and get in touch.
Training, qualifications & experience
I have a BA in Sociology from University College Dublin (UCD). I completed my postgraduate training at the Irish Institute of Counselling and Psychotherapy and qualified as a psychotherapist via the Irish Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (IACP.) I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
As part of my professional development, I continue to engage in regular trainings and workshops in the field of mental health.
Member organisations
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.
