Counselling, Psychotherapy and Hypnotherapy in Derry, Donegal, and Online via Zoom.
Therapy in a safe, comfortable and private setting
As an integrative counsellor with 30 years experience across a range of life issues I currently provide counselling/psychotherapy and hypnotherapy sessions from locations in Derry and Donegal. I see my role as a therapist initially to create a safe space for clients who are living through past events or indeed present life experiences that cause distress. However, you do not have to be in crisis before choosing therapy. You may be experiencing feelings of dissatisfaction with life in general or trying to bring balance to your life and spirituality.

Lifespan Integration Therapy for adults who experienced abuse or neglect during childhood
It is well known by therapists that adults who experienced abuse or neglect in childhood often spend years in therapy emoting and talking about their past traumatic experiences, yet they still have trouble moving beyond these past traumas.
Lifespan Integration Therapy is a new technique which promotes rapid healing in adults who experienced abuse or neglect during childhood. For those seeking help or needing further information regarding Li Therapy please phone and I’ll be happy to answer any questions and provide further information.

In the event where I am not the most appropriate choice for your needs beyond our initial assessment I can provide information on other therapists and health professionals who can offer alternative support such as residential treatments and associate charitable counselling organisations who provide free or low cost counselling services.
For clients wishing to have hypnotherapy a more detailed assessment is required as some underlying factors may determine hypnotherapy as the best option. Please note that I do not offer hypnosis for entertainment purposes and can only offer general hypnotherapy within the guidelines of the GHSC. For further information on Hypnotherapy please phone me directly and I can provide more detailed information before proceeding.
