who looks outside dreams, who looks inside awakes

Individual approach
My approach is to meet my client where they are at, and work with what best suits each individual. My goal is to help my client work through their issues with self-compassion and understanding.
Couples Counselling
My intention is to provide a safe place where couples can communicate openly and honestly, work on respectful dialogue, and promote boundaries and goals for the relationship.
Online sessions
Online counselling is an effective alternative to in-person counselling sessions. It has been proven to be as beneficial as being in the physical therapy room.
About me
My name is Olive, I'm originally from West Cork, and I've been living in Mallow, North Cork for the last 13+ years.
I am a qualified Counsellor and Psychotherapist. I have a BSc (Hons) in Counselling & Psychotherapy, and a Professional Certificate in Couples Counselling. I'm a Fully Accredited Member of IACP (Irish Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy). My counselling style is integrative, using different therapies, such as CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy), Psychodynamic Therapy, and Person-Centred Therapy.
I believe Counselling / Psychotherapy is a very empowering journey to discover our True Self. We can be very self-critical with ourselves, through negative self-talk, guilt and criticism. My goal is to help my client work through their issues, and reach a place of self-acceptance, and contentment. My Therapeutic Approach is adapted to each individual person, as everyone has different life experiences, and reacts differently to life's events. I work with what best suits the person in front of me, and their presenting issues. While I can't make the journey for you, I can walk alongside you, and support you as you make changes, and move towards your True Self.
