Life is tough sometimes...I understand...and I´m here to help!
For whatever reason you are finding life difficult right now, please know that it is temporary. Let´s work together and let me guide you back on your path.

I am a certified mental health professional, a rapid transformational therapy practitioner and a certified hypnotherapist. I have 12 years of combined educational and professional experience in the mental health field.

I began studying psychology in UCLA, California in 2012. At the time I was an accountant working in the finance sector. I was not feeling fulfilled in the finance industry and decided to follow my dream of becoming a psychotherapist.

I am passionate about helping people overcome addictions, mainly alcohol addiction. My passion was sparked by my own journey (and some family members) in overcoming a reliance on alcohol. Many people use drugs and/or alcohol to numb their pain and escape reality. If this is something that you or a loved one struggles with, I would love to help you heal and take back control of your life.

I have always been fascinated by the dynamics of human relationships. Every relationship has ups and downs, that’s a normal part of the human experience. As part of my studies I completed a Certificate in Interpersonal Relationships in UCC, Ireland.
If you are experiencing difficulties in a relationship, whether with a family member, a friendship, work colleague or romantic/marital/divorce issues I am here to support you.

I am a mom to three boys. I suffered postpartum depression after my first son was born. I suffered in silence, pretending everything was ok. At the time I was not brave enough to admit I was struggling and needing help.
Now I know that one of the bravest things you can do in life is to ask for help! It takes courage.
I have since helped many new mothers who were overwhelmed and suffering with a loss of identity to find themselves again.

I also have experience working with children that have special needs including Autism, ASD related disorders and Oppositional Defiance Disorder. Helping families that have recently received a diagnosis to navigate the sometimes lonely and overwhelming emotions that arise.

I combine CBT with Psychotherapy and Mindfulness based on my client´s needs.
I love watching people regain their self-esteem, confidence and self-belief. I use a caring, compassionate, non-judgemental approach…to make you feel seen, safe and secure.

I look forward to helping you!
