About me:
I am a clinical psychotherapist working with adults who feel caught in repeating emotional or relational patterns, overwhelmed by anxiety or shame, carrying the effects of trauma, or living with a sense of not feeling fully at ease within themselves.
I provide a space where experiences that feel too heavy, complex, or difficult to share elsewhere can be approached with care and curiosity, allowing for new ways of understanding yourself and relating to others. I understand how difficult it is to begin speaking about experiences that have been carried alone for a long time.
Why Psychotherapy:
People often come to therapy when grappling with the impact of past experiences, overwhelming emotional states, relationship struggles, or a persistent sense of feeling stuck despite their best efforts to cope. Therapy offers a space to pause, reflect, and begin to understand the deeper emotional patterns shaping your life.
How I work:
I offer psychotherapy in a compassionate, non-judgemental space, where thoughts, feelings, and memories that may feel confusing, overwhelming, or difficult to speak about are welcomed without shame or criticism.
My approach is trauma-informed, recognising the ways in which difficult or overwhelming experiences can shape how we feel about ourselves, relate to others, and experience the world. I aim to offer a therapeutic relationship grounded in safety and compassion.
I work with intense emotional states – rage, trauma responses, grief, and parts of the self that feel hard to put into words – to help people face these experiences without feeling alone in them. Sessions are reflective and exploratory rather than directive; our work will move at a pace that respects your readiness.
Location: Fairview Therapy Centre, Dublin 3 (directions below).
Availability: In-person on Monday & Friday evenings from 6pm-9pm (currently fully booked, waitlist only), and Saturdays from 11am-3pm. I have limited availability online on Tuesday & Wednesday evenings from 6pm-9pm.
