About me
I am a qualified counsellor and psychotherapist and a member of the IACP (Irish Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy). Fluent in both English and Portuguese. I work with clients from diverse backgrounds, helping them navigate life's challenges with understanding and professional support.
My approach is deeply empathetic, and client centred. My main approach is Person-Centred therapy, but I also draw from other therapy approaches such as Gestalt, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness-based, and Psychodynamic techniques to tailor each session to your individual needs.
Beyond my professional qualifications, I have extensive experience working with LGBTQIA+ individuals, neurodivergent clients, and those facing significant life transitions.
My volunteer work with LGBT Ireland and Foróige (Irish association) has further enriched my ability to provide inclusive and affirming therapy.
I believe that therapy is a collaborative journey, and my role is to support and empower you in finding clarity, healing, and growth. We'll move at a pace that feels right for you, gently exploring what truly matters and supporting you in your journey towards deeper self-understanding, empowerment, and healing.
