About Me
I offer a supportive space where we can explore the weight of anxiety, depression, grief, or stress. Using research-based therapies, I guide individuals through complex emotions, including those linked to ASD or suicidal ideation. We work together to understand these experiences and build practical, lasting ways to cope. This approach helps you find clarity and build resilience, transforming challenges into a path towards well-being.
Approach
Growing from our earlier work, therapy unfolds through practical steps and gentle experiments that honour sensory and emotional differences tied to ASD and mood struggles. In Cork or online, sessions balance short skills practice, creative exercises and clear, simple explanations, with actionable tasks between appointments and check-ins when crisis surfaces. I pace each session to your energy, using calm breathing, thought-mapping and problem-solving to make small reliefs repeatable. People seeking steady, practical change and clearer day-to-day coping tend to find this way helpful.
