Counselling and Psychotherapeutic Approach
Niamh’s psychotherapeutic approach is rooted in building a genuine and warm therapeutic relationship with her clients. Niamh believes that a supportive therapeutic relationship can nurture growth and foster positive change for clients within psychotherapy. Niamh works in a paced, attuned way that inherently respects where each of her clients are at when they come to this work. Niamh believes that we owe respect to the mechanisms we each develop that offer protection when navigating life’s challenges. Your work together with Niamh, will prompt a deeper exploration and excavation of yourself, your patterns, attitudes and beliefs, and will encourage you to consider the usefulness of these patterns in your daily life.
Niamh offers a trauma informed approach to her work, blending Humanistic, Systemic, Psychodynamic and CBT models of psychotherapy to best meet her client’s individual and distinct needs upon entering your work together. Niamh also draws upon mindfulness, poly-vagal and biodynamic principles and theories, which unify the mind and body in her work with clients.
