I am an accredited Counsellor and Psychotherapist and a member of the Irish Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists (IACP), having completed a three year degree at the Institute of Integration Counselling & Psychotherapy (IICP).  I work with adults, children and teenagers.  I work from a humanistic and existential perspective and integrate therapies to help my clients gain useful insights to on going situations/issues in their lives that are causing them pain and distress.  I am also an informed Internal Family Systems therapist (IFS).  

In July 2020 I completed a four year degree in Art Psychotherapy.  I use art (where appropriate) in my counselling sessions.  This helps to enhance the emotional well being of the client especially if they are having difficulty in expressing themselves verbally. The use of art can also help reduce stress and support a person who is feeling depressed.  It can help the client to look at past trauma and help them slowly and gently express their feelings through art. No experience of art is needed.  Just a willingness to try it, even if this is drawing a line on a page.
