That uncertainty is completely fine - you don't need to arrive knowing. The First Conversation under Comhluadar exists precisely for this: 30 minutes to talk things through together and sense what might fit, with no obligation to continue.
Comhluadar is conversation first - no fixed goal and no assumption that something is broken. It is somewhere to talk, reflect and be properly accompanied. Sometimes another practice may find its way into the session, but only if it feels useful and is wanted.
Leigheas Dúchais is deeper breath-and-body tending, rooted in Celtic tradition and held through breath, blessing, silence and presence.
If it's somewhere to talk that you need, Comhluadar may be the better door. If you're drawn to deeper body, breath and Celtic-rooted work, Leigheas Dúchais may be.
Faoiseamh na Scoile is personal tending, for the person underneath the job - three sessions, built for teachers and school staff specifically.
Teaching Heart Support is professional supervision - space to bring what the work itself stirs in you.
If it's you that needs tending, Faoiseamh na Scoile. If it's the work itself, Teaching Heart Support.
Some of my work includes coaching and mentoring, particularly within Comhluadar, but I don't work from one fixed coaching model.
Depending on what you bring, our time together might include conversation, reflection, breathwork, body-based practices or some of the other tools I've trained in over the years.
I don't offer counselling, psychotherapy or clinical treatment. My way of working is perhaps best described as tending: meeting what is here without beginning from the assumption that something in you needs fixing.
Not at all. This tradition is rooted in this land and language, but it's offered to anyone who feels drawn to it, you don't need Irish heritage, and you don't need any Irish to take part.
Only Faoiseamh na Scoile and the Leigheas Dúchais full journey have a minimum (three sessions each). Everything else - Anáil Scíthe, Anáil Bheo, Comhluadar's ongoing sessions - can be booked one at a time, for as long or as little as serves you.
Yes. Everything here is open to practitioners too.
If you're looking specifically for support around your own professional practice, Breathwork Facilitator Supervision gives you somewhere to bring what the work stirs in you.
If you're looking to train or deepen your practice, the Breath Coach Training and Facilitator Apprenticeship are offered through The Exhale Awakening.
Faoiseamh na Scoile and Teaching Heart Support are specifically for teachers and school staff.
All 1-to-1 sessions take place online via Zoom. Please book at least 24 hours ahead where you can. Cancellations with less than 24 hours' notice may not be refunded. You're welcome to reach out directly with any question before booking.
No. You don't need to believe anything particular to work with me.
My work is shaped by Irish tradition, land, language and ways of tending, but I won't ask you to adopt my beliefs or interpret your experience in a particular way. You are welcome to meet the work in whatever way feels true for you.
You don't need to be fixed.
Sometimes you simply need space to breathe, to be heard, and to find your own way.
