“Being healed isn’t about feeling nothing. Being healed is about feeling the appropriate emotions at the appropriate times and still being able to come back to yourself. That’s just life.”
More about me:
I have over 10 years experience in the field. I hold a BSc in Psychology from the University of Aberdeen, where I also obtained the COSCA Counselling Skills Diploma. I completed my Doctorate in Counselling Psychology at Trinity College Dublin in 2020. I am registered with the HCPC and am a member of the Psychological Society of Ireland.
My professional experience includes working in a hospital clinic supporting individuals with chronic pain, the Trinity Student Counselling Service, and Jigsaw Dublin South West / Dublin City, a youth mental health charity. I have worked with people across the lifespan, supporting a wide range of difficulties including disordered eating, neurodivergence, intergenerational trauma, stress, depression, and anxiety. I am currently based in Sweden and work as a consultant for a digital mental health provider.
I’m a ND woman of colour and have lived across Europe since turning 19. These experiences have given me a deep appreciation for the challenges of living abroad: learning a new language, navigating unfamiliar systems, and building meaningful connections to name but a few. I also have endometriosis and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS).
My personal experiences have helped me understand how daunting it can feel to get support and to even begin therapy. Here, I aim to make that first step a little easier for you. I recognise how challenging it can be to move through the world when your mind and body feel disconnected, when stress becomes overwhelming, and everything just feels too much. There’s nothing wrong with you, I’ve been there too!
When seeking therapy, you’re not just looking for a skilled professional, but for someone who genuinely understands.
My approach is culturally sensitive, inclusive, and trauma-informed. I want to help you understand your patterns, develop compassion, build emotional resilience, and reconnect with yourself in grounded, meaningful ways. Most of all I want you to feel seen, heard, and understood.
I can support you with:
• Ongoing physical symptoms connected to stress and burnout (e.g., chronic pain/illness, sleep difficulties, IBS)
• Neurodiversity
• Anxiety and depression
• Self-esteem and self-worth concerns
• Disordered eating and concerns related to body image
• Attachment patterns and relationship difficulties
• Cultural identity exploration and culturally related stressors
Who am I outside of work?
Outside of work I love art, playing boardgames, cooking, and reading. I’m always looking for recommendations so tell me about the books you love! If I had to pick a favourite it would be Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson. I’m fond of everything from cosy crime to fantasy.
Just a little note to say I love animals so if you have a furry friend please feel free to bring them to your sessions! I’d love to say hello!
