About me

I believe in order to feel alive, happy and fulfilled, we need to have a sense of belonging and connection with self in relationship with others… and relationship is all about open communication and quality connections.

Following my Graduation from University College Cork as a Parent & Relationship Mentor and Education Practitioner, I started my practice because I am passionate about children’s wellbeing and realise that the ‘felt experience’ of belonging within a family can have a huge impact on our lives.

It follows that how we ‘turn up’ as adults – how we parent; how we are in relationships and how we manage our work lives – is greatly influenced by our early childhood experiences.

I work with individuals, couples and groups to support and empower them in their personal life and in their work life, to develop as individuals, as parents and as leaders.

As well as having academic qualifications and many years of experience, I have spent some time in therapy myself re-discovering the aspects of my own true nature that I had protected and hidden away.

Furthermore I was an integral part of a therapeutic lifeworks support group for four years.

I have parented two children and have been a Director of a successful business for years before re-training as a Mentor and Therapist.
