Experience

Meaningful Psychotherapy

Initially, clients often seek therapy for help with symptoms such as anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or even self-harm. Often, however, these symptoms reflect deeper patterns of feeling, thinking and relating that began as ways of adapting to our unique life circumstances. As these patterns develop outside of our conscious awareness, we often suffer their effects without knowing exactly why.

I work with my clients to create a warm, secure therapeutic relationship characterised by empathy, acceptance, and curiosity. Within this relationship, clients are free to give words to thoughts, feelings and experiences that may never have been expressed before. This freedom provides insight into the nature and origin of these patterns.

As these patterns often form within relationships, our therapeutic relationship becomes a rare opportunity to notice when they appear in the here-and-now. With this awareness, new choices become possible. What was hurt in relationship becomes healed in relationship.

It’s important to pick a therapist that is the right fit for you. As such, I provide a free consultation session to discuss what brings you to therapy and how you are hoping therapy can help. Afterwards, we can decide whether or not working together will be helpful.

I offer in-person sessions in The Healing House, Dublin 7 and am also available to work online. I currently have limited availability.
