Details of Approach
My therapeutic approach is integrative, evidence-based, and deeply collaborative. I work with adults, teens (16+), and couples to create a safe, non-judgemental space where you feel genuinely heard and understood. Together we focus on practical, lasting change that fits your life, your pace, and your goals.
As a late-diagnosed autistic/ADHD therapist, I’m naturally attuned to neurodivergence, but I work comfortably and effectively with a wide range of difficulties — anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, relationships, addiction, life transitions, or simply feeling stuck and unsure where to turn.
All sessions are offered online and in person in Newport, Co Tipperary, with flexible weekday and evening slots available. New clients almost always start within a week — no long waiting lists.
My aim is simple: you leave each session feeling a little lighter, clearer, and equipped with something practical you can actually use — until therapy becomes something you no longer need.
Principal Modality
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
Highly structured and evidence-based, CBT is excellent for breaking unhelpful thinking patterns and building practical skills. I use it extensively for anxiety, depression, stress, ADHD-related challenges, and replacing addictive behaviours with healthier alternatives.
Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT)
A gold-standard, trauma-focused approach specifically designed for PTSD and complex trauma. We gently examine and reshape the stuck points and beliefs trauma leaves behind, leading to profound and lasting relief.
Mindfulness-Based Techniques
Simple, powerful practices to regulate emotions, reduce impulsivity, manage sensory overload, and stay present. Particularly helpful for ADHD, autism, burnout prevention, and relapse prevention in addiction.
Existential Therapy
When life feels meaningless, directionless, or overwhelming, we explore purpose, freedom, responsibility, and what truly matters to you. This approach often brings clarity and renewed motivation, especially after addiction recovery or major life shifts.
Gestalt Therapy
A here-and-now, experiential approach that heightens awareness of thoughts, feelings, and body sensations. Brilliant for finishing unfinished emotional business, improving relationships, and reconnecting with parts of yourself that may have been shut down through masking or substance use.
Structured Addiction Treatment
Drawing on over five years’ frontline experience (residential treatment at MyMove, homeless services, and running two dedicated gambling support services), I deliver clear, evidence-based recovery pathways: relapse prevention planning, craving management, behavioural substitution, and rebuilding identity beyond addiction.
