Do you ever find yourself watching p**n more often than you’d like, or feeling out of control around s*x? you’re not alone in that.

Drawing on training from the Contemporary Institute of Clinical Sexology (CICS), my work supports people who want to better understand and manage compulsive or out-of-control s*xual behaviours.

I have a small number of low-cost therapy spaces available, both online and in-person in Balbriggan, Dublin.

Masking can feel like wearing a mask 24/7..
hiding parts of yourself to fit in 😔

Many neurodivergent adults & teens do this without even realising it. It can be exhausting and impact your mental health, self-esteem, and focus.

I help clients notice when they’re masking and explore ways to feel more authentic and understood. 

Follow for insights on living authentically as a neurodivergent person.

I went out for a run this morning.

Head busy. body tired. still went.

And I’m reminded every time.... the body and mind aren’t separate. When we move, we regulate. We release stress. We shift energy that’s been sitting there too long.

Sometimes the most therapeutic thing you can do isn’t think more....It’s move ❤️

Valentine’s day isn’t just about romantic love 💛

It’s also about the relationship you have with yourself.
The way you speak to yourself when you make a mistake, the boundaries you’re learning to hold,
the rest you allow without guilt.

Self-love isn’t just bubble baths.
it’s choosing not to abandon yourself.

Be gentle with you...
that relationship lasts a lifetime.
- Michaela 💛

My ADHD brain has bursts of focus that feel unstoppable... and then hits a wall.

It craves novelty and stimulation, which means I can throw myself into a project, hobby, or idea with full energy… only to switch to the next one just as quickly. It’s thrilling, sometimes messy, and always part of how I experience the world.

Learning to ride this rollercoaster, rather than fight it - has been everything 💛

Sometimes life just feels like a lot.

Not a crisis. not a breakdown.

Just… heavy, overwhelming, or hard to put into words.

Therapy can be a space to slow things down and talk it through. without judgement or pressure to have answers.

In-person and online in balbriggan.

Christmas Day at Balbriggan Beach ❤️

Cold air. Open space. A pause.

Being near the sea can help everything slow down.... the breath, the thoughts, the pace of the day.

For many people, this time of year can feel full or heavy in ways that aren’t always visible. Getting out can make a difference.

No pressure to do more.

Just allowing the moment to be enough 🤍
