Description of Work and Background:
I graduated in 2013 from the Irish Gestalt Institute after doing a clinical placement with Student Counselling Service at The University of Limerick. Prior to this, I qualified as a counsellor in 1992 and established a counselling service for families of people with dementia in Bristol.My work in the health care sector spans over many years: initially as a general nurse, then a psychiatric nurse and later, a trainer of health care professionals in the mental health sector.
I have a European Certificate of Psychotherapy from the European Association of Psychotherapy, a Master’s in Gestalt Psychotherapy and a Certificate in Supervision from the Gestalt Institute of Ireland. In my practice I work with individuals and couples, helping them address a range of emotional and psychological difficulties.
As a supervisor informed by compassionate practice and awareness of shame, I endeavour to create an open and compassionate space where supervisees feel supported to become courageous enough to see how their vulnerabilities and processes impact their therapeutic work.
I regard it as important to cultivate a supervision culture where it is okay not to always have the answers and, where appropriate, to arrive at clarity through engagement with uncertainty and the vulnerability of not-knowing.
I am mindful of ethical and best practice norms of IAHIP and work effectively with supervisees to arrive at a settled place that is congruent and authentic for the supervisee and is aligned with their career stage.
I work both face-to-face and online. My website is www.counsellinginlimerick.com.
