I have a master's degree in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy, awarded by the University College Cork. I did my training through Turning Point Institute in Dublin, Ireland. I have also been awarded the IAHIP Certificate of Professional Training in Humanistic and Integrative Psychotherapy.
I am a Certified Associate with the Irish Association of Humanistic and Integrative Psychotherapy (IAHIP).
Each client will require a different number of sessions based on their individual needs. While it is entirely your choice if you continue with sessions, together we can look at your progress and decide if more sessions would be helpful.
Counselling is like flexing a muscle, the more we work at it with consistency, the easier it gets. Longer times in-between sessions tend to impact the flow and progress of the work. I strongly recommend that clients attend weekly sessions. Weekly sessions allow us to build a strong relationship as a basis for our work together.
However, once clients reach a certain point in their work, many choose to move to twice-monthly or monthly sessions. Together, we can decide when it may be best for you to change frequency of sessions.
Currently, I am only offering online sessions. This allows me to see clients in a variety of geographical areas. I am currently accepting new clients that reside in Ireland, Italy, and Spain.
A common misconception is that you must have severe symptoms in order to start counselling. Almost everyone can benefit from counselling, but not every therapeutic approach or counsellor is the right fit for everyone. Together, we can decide if I am the right fit for your needs. I am happy to provide referrals at any point, if requested.
I am a native English speaker, and I only provide counselling in English at this time.
Individual counselling sessions are 50 minutes in duration and cost €70.00 per session. Payment is made by bank transfer.
While I am here to facilitate, ask questions, challenge, and suggest ways to further explore whatever is coming up for you, you control the conversation topics and depth.
No two sessions are ever the same because we focus on what's present for you in the moment. As we explore what's happening in your life right now, we may uncover patterns from the past that continue to influence you today. Depending upon your needs, we may work on your connection to your body or feelings through the use of imagery, physical sensations, movement, or sound. We may also gently bring attention to parts of you that haven't had much space to be heard. Together, we'll find what feels most supportive and meaningful for you.
