MA. Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy, H. Dip. Psychotherapy, Dip. Counselling and Psychotherapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. APPI Ltd and ICP registered.
I am a fully qualified Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist and fully accredited member of APPI Ltd (The Association for Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy Ireland), & ICP (The Irish Council for Psychotherapy). Although I work mainly from a Psychoanalytic approach, my approaches do vary from CBT to long or short term therapy depending on the circumstances of the individual.
Prior to receiving my MA Degree in Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy, I completed a Higher Diploma course in Psychotherapy and a Diploma course in Counselling and Psychotherapy. I also have a Professional Diploma in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and am currently pursuing training in both Addiction, Trauma, with a special interest in the development of AI and the impacts on mental health. I work with adults in my private practice at Willow Tree Child & Family Therapy Centre based in Artane, Dublin 5. I also work as a Corporate Psychotherapist/Wellbeing Specialist for Centric Mental Health, providing support for contents moderators handling sensitive content, for companies such as Google & Facebook. As well as one to one support, I conduct group sessions on mental health topics such as stress management, resilience techniques and mindfulness.
I previously worked in My Mind Mental Health Matters, based in Ranelagh which run a very successful, low cost and easily accessible service nationwide, and have volunteered with AWARE and H.O.P.E (Hope Hands on Peer Education) Addiction Services.
I have completed various courses within the field of mental health. These include; ASIST (Applied Skills in the Intervention of Suicide Training), The Practice of Mindfulness & BodyRight for young people based in the Dublin City Rape Crisis Centre.
I am currently working on my first publication.
