I am a fully qualified counsellor in Counselling, Psychotherapy and Suicidology who practices under the supervision of the Irish Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (IACP) and adheres to their code of ethics. I have expertise in issues relating to anxiety, depression, confidence, su***de (directly or indirectly), bereavement and self-harm. I also has several years’ experience in the fi
eld of motivational weight loss and body image issues. As a counsellor I maintain a person centred approach at all times in which I believe the client has the answers within themselves and the ability to take charge of themselves. I feel my job is to facilitate the client through a difficult or challenging time in their life. My aim is to help the client identify and define their real needs by supporting and encouraging them to attain and fulfil these needs. I believe that we are all unique and complex beings and I strive to understand my clients as individuals, no two clients are the same or no two stories are the same. I work with respect for each individual’s beliefs and values, aiming to offer the greatest opportunity for growth as well as change.
