About me and my therapy practice
I work within an Integrative approach with the therapeutic relationship of non-judgement, acceptance and trust being the most important. I am an EMDR Europe Accredited Practitioner, specialising in trauma. I have been counselling for over 12 years and have a wide range of experience in grief, trauma, abuse, suicidality, self esteem, anxiety, depression relationships etc. I am also qualified in CBT, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy and couple therapy. I see clients in Hillsborough, Co Down and also offer online therapy. Making a decision to avail of counselling can be your first step to change and hope for yourself and your relationships.
Practice description
I have been in private practice for 7+ years, having had experience in both the community and voluntary sector. I offer therapy for individuals and couples in a safe and neutral space that follows all guidelines in regards to covid regulations and safety. My therapy room is located with good parking and disability access.
My first session
I recognise that coming to therapy can be a daunting experience and one that takes courage to make the first step. Our first session will take the form of an assessment - the presenting difficulties you face and the reason and hopes for counselling. I will also assess on areas of risk, resources and relationships, taking into account that the past can have an impact on current levels of distress, anxiety, depression and sense of self. The first session is also used to form a therapeutic contract for therapy building on confidentiality, trust and safety.
