After a decade working in the medical system and experiencing deteriorating personal health in 2014 I chose a new path to regain my health and vitality in the hope I wasn’t too late.

Embarking on this new approach to health I gradually began to recover  and it ignited a love of nature in me which compelled me to complete many courses including a Certificate in Nutrition (Nutrition for Everyday Living, College of Naturopathic Medicine, 2013), followed by a Diploma in Naturopathic Nutrition (CNM Galway 2016), in order to integrate more healing in the body at our clinic I combine a 3000yr old system of Medicine with modern day cutting edge technology in the form of Red light and Infra Red light therapy.

I felt driven to study Colonic Hydrotherapy after personally experiencing the healing and therapeutic benefits it brings to the body. Flushing out the colons old waste matter restores balance to the body and improves tone, function and peristalsis. In fact it challenges the body to work for itself!

At Iarthar, I work with my clients to educate and empower. By providing a deeply therapeutic interaction I hope that they leave feeling informed, and in touch with their own bodies and ready for the next step!!

I am a Biodynamic & Integrative Psychotherapist. Biodynamic Psychotherapy emphasises the importance of the body in sustaining psychological, emotional and physical wellbeing. Integrative means weaving in a variety of elements from different schools of psychotherapy, depending on your needs.

Together we will look at everything that makes you who you are, focusing on you and your relationship with the world around you.

My approach is warm and supportive and will in most instances be led by you. You can expect to be challenged into new ways of thinking, feeling, and expressing yourself.

As a Body Psychotherapist, we may also use body posture, breath, voice, and movement to raise awareness around your experience in the moment. Body Psychotherapy does not always involve touch. It often focuses on learning to recognise our felt sense.

Please feel free to contact me 087 4554954 or [email protected] to book an appointment.

Most of us struggle at times to make sense of what is going on in the world and in our daily lives, when faced with an unexpected crises, or when life becomes stressful and over demanding.  These struggles can be for a number of reasons and can include, family relationships, work difficulties or death of a loved one.  This can result in feelings of anxiety, stress, depression, shame, anger, fear and uncertainty.  During these times it may be helpful to get extra support by talking to a professional therapist who can listen and respond with empathy and compassion in a non-judgemental manner.

 I am a fully accredited Member of the Irish Association of Humanistic & Integrative Psychotherapy (IAHIP) the Irish Council for Psychotherapy (ICP) and the Irish Association for Body Psychotherapy (IABP). Following on from my training as a Biodynamic and Integrative Psychotherapist from Tracht Psychotherapy Foundation in Kinvara, Galway, I completed a course with the Galway Rape Crises Centre "Working with Sexual Violence and Aggression.
