MY BACKGROUND
I have been working here as a psychotherapist in the Crescent Counselling and Psychotherapy Centre in Dooradoyle Limerick for 16 years.
My initial training which began over 40 years ago was in the UK where I worked for CRUSE, this is an organisation that offers support and counselling for the bereaved. On moving to Ireland I studied at UCC where I received a Higher Diploma and then a Masters in Integrative Psychotherapy. I have also attended training in Solution Focus Brief Counselling, Couple Counselling, Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. I am an accredited clinical supervisor with the Irish Association of Humanistic and Integrative Psychotherapy (I.A.H.I.P.) and have a Masters in Humanistic and Integrative Psychotherapy.
HOW CAN I HELP YOU & HOW DOES IT WORK?
People come to me for many reasons. We all have difficulties to deal with but sometimes they can become overwhelming and unmanageable with no apparent solution. I can help you overcome these issues.
Often clients come with a general feeling of being unhappy. Feelings of anger, irritability, rejection, confusion and sadness can interfere with everyday living. Sometimes clients come with more specific issues, for example, not being able to sleep, or struggling in a relationship, or worrying too much. Some events like moving house, having a baby, changing country, losing a job, or bereavement can all have a significant impact on us. Trying to forget about the problem, keeping busy, or just ignoring how you feel is not the answer. Dealing with it as soon as possible is the best course of action.
In the first session we will spend time getting to know each other and for me to understand what is happening in your life. Sometimes it can take time to unravel the problem. It can be helpful to discover what you hope to achieve by coming to therapy. Important questions might be “What do you feel would make your life better, what would you like to change?”
You can ask me questions about my training and what is my treatment plan.
