Call Directions Website

Midlands Family Therapy Family Therapy works with people, so that they can understand, and respond to any difficulties that they encounter individually or as family systems.

As part of my systemic approach I also engage groups through work in nature as Ballykealy Social Farm. All families have their ups and downs and most have to cope with crises from time to time. Usually, people can cope well enough with these difficulties, but sometimes things can mount up and seem too much. Family therapy aims to support the family to deal with these difficulties in a safe, supportive and respectful environment. Everyone is welcome to attend, no matter what their age. Sessions are confidential and do not judge people. Together we can help things to change.

It was a pleasure to welcome members of Social Farming Ireland, Social Prescribing Offaly and the National Counselling Service to Ballykealy Social Farm for an experiential morning. I hope to be able to invite other groups to enjoy nature as the farm grows. The bees woke up for the first time this year and the frog spawn is developing

As we approach the longest night of the year I crave light and rest. Its been a busy year. Sending thoughts to all the people I have listened to and worked with this year. My thoughts are with those estranged from their family, those grieving and those alone. Sending you all my best wishes.
Wishing health and rest to all. I look forward to seeing you in the new year. I am finishing up next week and will be back January 05 2026. Please note I am full, but returning clients will be offered a appointment as soon as I have one in new year. Take care All!

Its been a beautiful and productive summer in Ballykealy Social Farm. We enjoyed the fruits of our social farming guests. We hosted some lovely Workaway guests who brought a lovely energy with them. Thanks to Elaine for the bat survey; We have 4 types of bats, and are thrilled. I was delighted to welcome a group from TENI who spent an afternoon engaging in nature and gardening. You cant move for butterflys this year. Hope you are well, and wishing everyone a mellow Autumn. Looking forward to welcoming our next social farming guests who will help me realise a new special project!
