• Feeling stuck in the survival mode of anxiety?

• Finding in midlife or perimenopause/menopause you are feeling less resilient than before?

• Struggling with mixed emotions about immigration, like home is in two places or now that the honeymoon phase is over you are lacking a sense of belonging or confidence?

• Perplexed and feeling powerless about how to move forward during a difficult parenting phase?

• Can’t figure out why your partner runs from conflict and you find yourself going from calm to seeing red in a heartbeat, or vice versa? Having the same fight with your partner, child, friend, or yourself and can't see eye to eye? Do you either explode in anger or find yourself agonizing over whether or not your frustration is worth talking about but you sit on it and feel stuck and alone? Don’t know how to move forward?

​

If you are having any of these struggles, I have got you. When you feel more connected with others it is easier to ask for what you need and work co-operatively to solve problems. Greater ability to sit with uncomfortable feelings or regrets, have compassion for yourself or others and stay in the present moment can really help. Come and learn with me. I have been a newcomer (to Ireland, where I lived for 15 years), someone experiencing infertility and mid-life, a parent and a partner. I won't tell you what worked for me but I will offer skills that can help.

​

Alongside my Counselling MA, I have 29 years experience as a: parent educator, crisis support volunteer for domestic violence survivors, and a group facilitator helping folks dealing with poverty, mental health challenges or single parenting to gain skills for mental wellness and personal growth.
