Hello and welcome to my website

I use the Triskele as my logo, which is an ancient symbol, also known as the Celtic Knot, as it is believed to represent a tale of forward and back motion to reach understanding, and the butterflies represents transformation, and my hope is to offer this to you.   My practice is based in the North Coast of Co Antrim in Northern Ireland, and I practice online nationally and internationally.  As I live and practice in the UK I am therefore governed by UK law and regulations.

 

Nature has been researched and known as an organic nervous system regulator, and as stated by Dr Stephen Porges , founder of the Polyvagal Theory,  “connection” is a biological imperative, and I attach a photo of the North Coast of Antrim (below) of where I live and practice and invite you to notice its beauty and calming sensations, hopefully offering connection and calm as you access my webpage.

L2 Internal Family Systems qualified, awaiting L3 and embarked on certification.  My main modality of healing is Internal Family Systems and is potent in healing, supporting forward and back motion, reaching understanding of your deeper psyche.  Accessing deeper access to your inherent resilience “SELF” is transformational,   see Introduction by Internal Family Systems founder, Dr Richard Schwartz at the bottom of the page.

 

I also integrate Sensorimotor Psychotherapy  L1 qualified (Somatic), Polyvagal Trauma (Nervous System) and Neuro Somatic Mindfulness.   Alignment and integration of our parts in the mind, body and spirit enhances coherence, offering stability and resilience.   Deepak Chopra has said “when mind, body, and spirit are in harmony, happiness is the natural result” wherein we have access to our SELF.

 

 I offer warmth, authenticity, congruence, confidentiality and a brave space in supporting you to get to know yourself in your journey to  mental, physical, emotional and spiritual wellness .

 

I have been in private practice for over 14 years and over 7000 client hours which has supported me offering experience in anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, CPTSD, self esteem, resilience access, nervous system regulation, amongst many other psychological difficulties bringing rest and recovery to your nervous system and connection to your parts.

IFS as my main modality is a non pathologizing therapy.
