Your Journey to Wellness

Starting therapy can feel daunting. Here's what to expect when working with me.

1

Initial Contact

Reach out via phone, email, WhatsApp, or the contact form. We'll arrange a convenient time for an initial 15min phonecall to discuss your needs and answer any questions.

2

First Session

During our first full session, we'll explore what brings you to therapy and discuss your goals. This is a safe space to share your story at your own pace.

3

Ongoing Support

We'll work together at a pace that feels right for you. Sessions typically last 50 minutes and are scheduled weekly or as needed. I generally work in blocks of around 10 sessions, as this is often sufficient time to address a specific issue.

Professional & Experienced

Qualified counsellor and psychotherapist, pre-accredited with the IACP. Over the past few years, I've worked in a community-based counselling center in Cork City, helping people from all walks of life navigate various challenges.

Confidential & Safe

Everything discussed in our sessions remains strictly confidential, providing you with a safe space to explore your feelings.

Person-Centred Approach

I believe in your capacity for growth and self-understanding. You lead the way, while I provide support, guidance, and a non-judgmental space.
