I have been an educator working in Ireland for over 25 years.

As a qualified Guidance Counsellor, I work with professional understanding and knowledge of the various opportunities available for school leavers and adults of all ages.

My priority is always to understand the individual’s interests and skills and in what way they would like to spend their working life.  Courses, apprenticeships, jobs, all can be explored and my clients appreciate my careful approach, with clear follow-up report and “next steps” guidance.

I also work with groups; if you need an experienced evaluator, chairperson or facilitator for your group, organisation, or event you can be assured of a committed and experienced professional, who always works in an enabling and supportive way.

My ability to listen deeply combined with professional skills can make for a transformative experience.
