Ireland's Leading Psychotherapeutic Coach

Helping you overcome your difficulties and thrive

Last week I spent some time in hospital and as I started to feel a bit overwhelmed, I used my Anxiety Toolkit to help me. Here's why my Anxiety Toolkit Workshop might be for you too.⁣ ⁣ My workshop consists of a 𝟷-𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘴𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘮𝘦 (𝟷:𝟷) which is designed to help you understand your anxiety better. We will explore it and identify how it manifests in your life. ✨ ⁣ I will then work with you to 𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘢 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘴𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰𝘰𝘭𝘬𝘪𝘵 to navigate those overwhelming moments.⁣⭐️ ⁣ During our time together, we'll delve into discussions about your 𝘢𝘯𝘹𝘪𝘦𝘵𝘺 𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘨𝘦𝘳𝘴, explore where and how anxiety impacts you, and work together to build a toolkit tailored to your needs.⁣💪 ⁣ You'll walk away with 𝘷𝘢𝘭𝘶𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘪𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘴, 𝘱𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭 𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘨𝘪𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘢 𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘦𝘮𝘱𝘰𝘸𝘦𝘳𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵 to manage your anxiety more effectively.⁣✨ What's more, you'll receive 𝘢 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘩𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘬𝘣𝘰𝘰𝘬, 𝘢 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘴𝘦𝘥 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘯 to guide you on your journey, and a 𝘨𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘮𝘦𝘥𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 to support you beyond the workshop.⁣ ⁣ You can do this from the comfort of your own home as it all takes place online.⁣ ⁣ All of this costs just €50!

Save SOSAD @sosadireland.ie SOSAD is a wonderful organisation providing free counselling to anyone who needs it. They are currently in financial trouble and they need our help. SOSAD currently sees 700 people a week. 700 people who need this vital service. 700 people who have nowhere else to go. We know that the mental health service in this country is broken and people who are desperate for support are often left without help. But they can find the therapy and care they need in SOSAD. I spent time volunteering as a counsellor in SOSAD. I saw people in need of emergency appointments who were able to meet with a counsellor that same day. I saw people in pain with nowhere else to go, be heard, find support and work with a therapist. I saw lives saved and changed. Please help in whatever way you can. Time is running out and we cannot let SOSAD close. #savesosad

I’m a therapist and yesterday 𝘐 𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘴 𝘤𝘳𝘺𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘶𝘧𝘧𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘭𝘥. I cried because of right denying policies and views. I cried because of hate. I cried because of gen*cide. I cried because of animal torment. I cried because I saw a video of a blind man suffering. I had to take time away from work because I was so overcome with tears, sadness and general despair. ⁣ ⁣ We’re taught from an early age to 𝘵𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘶𝘱 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘤𝘳𝘺𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘪𝘴 𝘢 𝘴𝘪𝘨𝘯 𝘰𝘧 𝘸𝘦𝘢𝘬𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴. And if you’re going to cry, for god’s sake don’t let anyone know about it. ⁣ ⁣ 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐲 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐭𝐡𝐬, 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐰𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬. Crying is not a weakness. You are crying because you care deeply, because you want better for the world, because you are sensitive to suffering and because you are full of consideration. ⁣ I’ve heard remarks before that a therapist shouldn’t be overwhelmed by sadness. There seems to be a belief that feeling anxious, stressed, scared, sad etc. makes us bad at our jobs. But that’s not true. In fact, I think it makes us better. 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐲 𝐢𝐬 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬, 𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬 𝐬𝐨 𝐰𝐡𝐲 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐰𝐞 𝐚𝐬 𝐩𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 𝐭𝐨𝐨?⁣ ⁣ If you’re sad right now, I’m with you and I’m sending you love and solidarity.⁣ ⁣ If you want to explore these issues with someone who is experiencing the same feelings, I’m here for you and 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐚 𝐅𝐑𝐄𝐄 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐦𝐞. #psychotherapist #lifecoach #irishtherapist #onlinetherapy #empathy #crying

𝐈’𝐦 𝐚 “𝐝𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐭” 𝐰𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐧! I have been told that I need to 𝘳𝘦𝘮𝘰𝘷𝘦 𝘦𝘮𝘰𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 because I was passionate about my work. I’ve been told that 𝘐’𝘮 𝘵𝘰𝘰 𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦 because I brought intimidating physical behaviour from a male colleague to my boss (let’s just say his fists were involved!)⁣ I have been told 𝘐’𝘮 𝘥𝘪𝘧𝘧𝘪𝘤𝘶𝘭𝘵 because I refused to allow the individuals I represented be treated unfairly. Would a man be told the same things? If you are reading this and nodding in agreement, I’m sorry that you’ve been treated so badly. I want you to know that 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐦. You are not difficult, you are not too sensitive and you don’t need to remove emotion from anything you are doing. It can be hard to have our voices heard but 𝐈 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮. 𝐈 𝐬𝐞𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮. 𝐈 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮. 𝐈 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮. If you would like some support to deal with these experiences, I am here for you. DM me the word DIFFICULT and I will send you information on how we can work together. #workplacestress #women #yourenottoosensitive #psychotherapy #counselling #coachingireland #selflove
