1:1 Coaching
Have you reached a point in your life where you want more out of your relationships, career and personal life? Do you want to make a change but for some reason feel you can't?
I work with clients through a range of programmes to;
- Achieve clarity and confidence in who they are and the changes they wish to make;
- Reframe thought, circumstantial and behavioural patterns that are limiting them and preventing change;
- Empower them with practical tools and strategies to move forward in the most creative, positive and fulfilling way possible.
It's never too late, or too early, to live the life you want. Message me or book your introductory call to start making changes and writing your story today.
Corporate Coaching
With a professional background of 11 years as a Senior Solicitor in some of the leading law firms in Ireland, of setting up my own Coaching and NLP business, and of playing rugby in professional and semi-professional environments, I am acutely aware of the challenges faced in highly pressurised work environments.
I am also acutely aware of what it feels like to lack a sense of identity in a professional environment, and to have ambitions, interests and dreams outside of the professional environment.
I work with professional clients to ensure they live the most fulfilling and authentic life possible, both in and out of the working environment. I empower clients with tools and strategies to make whatever changes necessary to achieve this. This can include changes within their current working environment, pursuing new ventures, or making changes at home.
The days of "one life, one career" are over. Flexible working practices and portfolio careers open a world of possibilities and dreams or life-long passions are no longer something to be suppressed by a "solid career path".
I also work with professional clients on a range of issues from managing stress to achieving a work-life balance, from developing communication skills to motivating a workforce, and from harvesting leaderships skills to team-building.
Message me or book your introductory call to make changes in your career/professional/development path today.
Seminars/talks/workshops
I offer general empowerment workshops and focused workshops/seminars/talks dealing with topics of relevance to companies, schools and universities such as confidence, leadership, values, goal setting, communication, bullying, stress, or parenting issues.
My workshops/seminars/talks encompass my training and experience in Coaching and NLP and my own personal experiences, challenges and lessons from each phase of my life to date.
I also regularly host workshops having done so online and in venues such as the Dublin Wellness Centre and the DLR Lexicon Library and Cultural Centre.

Coaching and Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP)
About Life Coaching....
Most of us at some point in our personal and professional lives find ourselves stuck, static or lacking direction.
We are born with infinite potential, yet our life experiences and conditioning (family, social and environmental) make us believe otherwise.
Life Coaching is getting you from where you are to where you want to be. It is achieving clarity around you as a person, what is important to you and what is holding you back. It is freeing you from what is limiting you, it is setting clear and concise goals and moving forward in the most creative, positive and fulfilling way possible.
About NLP....
Do you ever find that the things you want in life aren’t showing up and the things you don’t want are?
The comforting fact is you are not alone.
Neuro-Linguistic Programming (“NLP”) explores the connection between the neurological processes of the brain (neuro), the language we use with ourselves and others (linguistic), and the behavioural and thought patterns we have developed through our experiences (programming).
Often there is a divergence between what we think or say we want, and what our thought and behavioural processes and patterns are actually attracting into our lives. When this occurs, there is a miscommunication occurring between our conscious and unconscious mind.
NLP is the practice of exploring and becoming aware of these processes, language and behavioural patterns, which are often negative, and re-programming them to attract the things that will make our lives as meaningful and fulfilling as possible.
Welcome to Write Your Story NLP
"to begin, begin" William Wordsworth
When I was 27, I was at a crossroads. With the breakdown of a relationship, I had to move out of the home I shared with my 6 year old daughter.
I had a growing sense of disillusionment with my professional career as a solicitor and a feeling that I was living someone else’s definition of my life.
I was also raising my daughter to follow her dreams and be whomever she wanted yet I wasn't following my own advice.
It reached a point where it became clear that I had a decision to make, to continue to live someone else's definition of what my life 'should' be (and I had hundreds of perfectly reasonable excuses justifying why this had to be the case), or I could embrace my fears, step out of my comfort zone and social circles, and go after the life I felt I am here to live.
In the words of renowned American self-help author and motivational speaker Wayne Dwyer, I decided I would not let my time pass with my music still in me.
It was at this time that I encountered the world of coaching and Neuro-Linguistic Programming ("NLP"), and I also read a book called the Alchemist.
Since then, I have qualified as a Life and Behavioural coach (IPPS) and a NLP™ Master Practitioner (accredited with the Society of Neuro-Linguistic Programming™).
I have set up my own coaching business and I have been gifted with the opportunity to work with a significant number of clients to help them achieve their personal and professional goals. I have also had the opportunity to speak to University and School Students and host a number of workshops, all of which I find massively life affirming.
I have also pursued my life long dream of music, which I had hidden from the world as I never thought I was talented enough to do anything with it. I am now in a band and have played at some of the best festivals and venues in the country (Electric Picnic, Body & Soul, the Academy and Whelans to name a few).
Most importantly, my daughter sees her Dad living by his actions, not just his words and embracing fears to live a life that is true to him. Through this, she learns to do the same. This is a picture of my daughter and I just after she played her own songs as our supporting act at the release of our first single.
