ABOUT ME
Most people I work with don’t look like they’re struggling from the outside.
They’re functioning, capable, and often doing what’s expected of them, but inside they may feel anxious, disconnected, lonely, or unsure of themselves. Some feel stuck in patterns they don’t fully understand, particularly in relationships. Others feel overwhelmed by expectations, self-doubt, or the pressure to keep going without really knowing why.
I’m an accredited coach and psychotherapist in training, currently completing a Master’s degree in Pluralistic Counselling. I’m a member of the Irish Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (IACP), and I volunteer in two community counselling centres in Dublin, providing low-cost counselling to adults and young people.
Before training as a therapist, I spent over 16 years living and working internationally. That experience deeply shaped how I understand identity, belonging, and what it means to feel “out of place” even when life looks fine on the surface. It also informs my work with adolescents and adults who feel anxious, socially uncomfortable, or unsure of where they fit in the world.
HOW I WORK
I don’t believe there’s a single reason people struggle, or a single right way to help.
People experience distress for many different reasons: relationships, life transitions, anxiety, loneliness, loss of confidence, or simply feeling disconnected from themselves. My role isn’t to label or “fix” you, but to help you make sense of what’s happening and find a way forward that feels right for you.
I work collaboratively, at your pace. Some people arrive ready to make changes; others need time to feel safe, understood, and clearer about what they want. Both are completely valid.
Rather than focusing only on what’s wrong, I pay close attention to what’s already there in terms of your strengths, values, resilience, and capacity to grow. I’m particularly interested in helping people move towards the life they want, rather than spending all their energy trying to get away from what feels difficult.
Relationships are central to wellbeing, and when we don’t feel heard, understood, or connected, distress often follows. Creating a space where you can speak openly, without editing yourself or worrying about being judged is at the heart of my work.
Why Choose Me?
Whatever situation you are in, I promise to trigger a perspective shift. This will get you unstuck, so you can move forward and make the changes you want.
Through listening and effective communication, I build genuine connections and trust with clients. If you are open and honest with your fears, beliefs and worries, change will be easier to navigate.
Working with me is a collaborative process. You don’t need to have the “right words” or know exactly what you want from therapy, we figure that out together.
While it’s easy to fixate on problems at hand we focus on reframing them, so they are both manageable and actionable. Balance is key to sustainable change.
The people I work with tell me they feel more grounded, clearer about themselves, and more confident in navigating their problems and difficult emotions.
The strategies I use are based on research and I do my best to stay up to date and informed. While there is no one size fits all solution to unique situations, I will tailor approaches to suit your needs.
MY mission
My mission is to help people feel less alone with their struggles and more confident in who they are and how they relate to others.
I support people experiencing anxiety, relationship difficulties, and self-doubt to make sense of their inner world, strengthen their sense of belonging, and move toward a life guided by meaning and values.
I aim to offer a space where people feel heard, accepted, and supported. A place where they can make sense of what they’re carrying and find their own way forward, at their own pace.
Being an accredited practitioner of the European Mentoring and Coaching Council and a member of the International Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists means my counseling and coaching is ethical, professional and under regular supervision.
I have facilitated wellbeing training and workshops in Australia, Vietnam and Cambodia, both face to face and virtually.
