“You must find the place inside yourself where nothing is impossible.” – Deepak Chopra
Healing yourself helps you to challenge your belief system and to control your thoughts, feelings and behaviour. Our minds, bodies, and souls are connected to each other. When you heal, you gain control over your thoughts, get mental clarity and remove much of the negative thinking. You will begin to feel much healthier, more confident and better able to relate to the people around you.
Nowadays, stress is a major trigger for mental health symptoms. This can be associated with many challenges such as anxiety, depression, anger, trauma, bereavement, relationship-difficulties, purpose and meaning in life, to name but just a few. It is important to set aside some time to escape from this stress. Stress causes the release of cortisol in your body and too much cortisol is damaging to the body. These periods of escape can be incredibly healing in a caring, non-judgmental environment.
We work with individual clients and use an integrative approach very much based on the client’s needs. Sessions last for one hour and for those who find it difficult or experience anxiety leaving their home to come to our location or prefer home visits, we can arrange this with you. We also do “walk and talk” sessions which can be helpful for some people who might find it difficult sitting in a room. If you would like to avail of this please let us know and we can discuss suitable arrangements. We endeavour to make ourselves available at a time convenient to you.
Whatever you are going through, we are here to help. We will give you tools and techniques to help you manage your life better in the future.

“To realize that you are not your thoughts is when you begin to awaken spiritually.” Eckhart Tolle.
Spirituality is one of the essential characteristics of being human along with biological, psychological and sociological. A spiritual journey is a very individual and intimate exploration to deepen your understanding of life. It can help you to be more at peace with yourself and the world around you. You will gain insights into the problems and challenges you’re confronted with through some unconscious processing. C.G. Jung - ‘Until you make the unconscious conscious , It will direct your life and you will call it fate.’
Spirituality is often associated with religion but in fact, spirituality can be developed outside of organised religion through every day acts such as compassion, altruism, goodness, truth and love. Thousands of people around the world are expressing increasing interest in the role of spirituality in their healthcare. Today, there is a renewal of interest in exploring how the spiritual dimension of existence impacts health. It seems that the effects of spirituality are best explained by psycho-neuro-immunology, which is the study of the two-way communication between the mind, the nervous system and the immune system.
Spiritual growth is the process in which you awaken to your true self, not to the outer circumstances, experiences and conditioning that has defined you up to now. There are a number of different spiritual journeys that can be taken depending on what your intentions are, each one lasting one to one and a half hours.

✨ Exploring Life: Integrative Psychoeducation Sessions ✨
Starting February 16th, I’m offering a bi-weekly, 1.5 hours Zoom psychoeducation group designed for people who want to better understand themselves, their patterns, and the way they move through life. You’re free to listen, participation is optional.
This is not therapy, and you don’t need to have anything “wrong” to attend.
We’ll explore themes like:
- purpose &meaning
- boundaries and relationships
- life transitions
- personal growth
- emotional patterns
- stress, capacity, and resilience
- making sense of uncertainty
The intention is to create a thoughtful, grounded space for reflection, learning, and curiosity — not fixing or forcing insight.
Over time, participants will also have the opportunity to help shape future topics, allowing the group to evolve organically.
🗓 Starts: February 16th, 7-8.30pm
👥 Group size: Max 12 peopleInvestment: €20
