Welcome

Hi, I’m Emma. I provide compassionate, professional counselling both in-person in Limerick City and online.

Whether you’re seeking support for a specific challenge or simply need a space to talk, I’m here to listen.

“When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves.” — Viktor E. Frankl

  • Are you feeling unhappy, stressed or sad?
  • Finding it difficult to free yourself from feeling stuck?
  • Struggling with anxiety, perfectionism or a harsh inner critic?
  • Would you like to feel better-equipped to deal with change and uncertainty?

Does change seem daunting?

Change and transition are not the same. Change happens to us, it is external. Life expects us to accommodate upheaval, trauma and loss through the internal process of transition. I offer a secure space where you can assess the changes in your life, understand your reactions and discover how to adapt in a healthy, sustainable way.

The following are areas of concern I have encountered and the main therapeutic approaches I have used:

Concern

  • Grief and loss
  • Perimenopause and Menopause
  • Perinatal support
  • Problematic anxiety
  • Family conflict
  • Interpersonal conflict
  • Perfectionism
  • Burnout
  • Negative self-image

Approach

  • Pluralistic psychotherapy
  • Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT)
  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (ACT)
  • Compassion-Focused Therapy
  • Mindfulness
  • Transactional Analysis

The impacts of peri/menopause are wide-ranging and every woman’s experience is unique, to be viewed through a bio-psycho-social lens.

As someone who is living through the ups and downs of womanhood, I can offer emotional and psychological support to women who are going through ‘the change of life’.
