- Learn how to stop panic attacks and feel more secure.
- Learn how to overcome fake beliefs and build self confidence.
How can Psychotherapy / Hypnotherapy help me?
Your subconscious mind is like a filing cabinet that stores all events, thoughts, and unresolved emotions of your life. There may be fake beliefs in there from childhood that have turned into patterns of behaviour. So when you are triggered either internally or externally it will cause you anxiety.
You don’t know why you are reacting the way you do. It’s almost like the subconscious is telling you it’s time to sort things out. If these triggers are deep-seated emotional issues that have not been dealt with, once they are triggered in some way, shape, or form, the subconscious will cause anxiety.
Anxiety
You are anxious. You are fed up with it and can’t get rid of it. Your heart races. Your head pounds. You feel sweaty. You don’t know why you feel like this.
Panic
You experience panic attacks. You feel totally out of control and don’t know how to handle the panic.
Scared
Your stomach is in knots. Your legs feel wobbly. You are scared and just can’t begin to explain that awful feeling inside you.
Your journey to calm
Get in touch
The service I offer is very personal and strictly confidential. I use a bespoke service for every individual. Everyone is different. I personalise the service to you. Get in touch today and we can design a programme that suits your needs.
Be open and receptive
Allow yourself to be open to the process of positive change. No one can do it for you. It’s your journey, your life, your decision. Only you can make that change. If you fully engage, the results will be 100% better.
Do the work
You must be willing to do the work. This is not a quick hour where I will “fix you”. You will fix you. I am just a guide. I can give you all the tools and techniques but ultimately you must be open and willing to use them wisely. You have all the ability inside you to make that change. You may experience resistance, that is normal and may even be part of the process.
Frequently Asked Questions
Learn How it Works!
Can you tell me what you do?
I help people overcome their anxiety, fear, panic or depression.
Your mind is like a filing cabinet with four drawers. The first three drawers are everyday stuff “I need to get dinner in” or “I must collect the children” or “I must pay that bill” etc. but the bottom drawer is where you put all the stuff you don’t know how to deal with. It stays there one month, one year, one decade, multiple decades until it is triggered!
You see your brain (brain, subconscious, unconscious, reptilian brain) wants to keep you safe. That’s it’s job. It's constantly scanning the environment, wherever you are, to keep you safe. If you are triggered, your brain scans the filing cabinet of your mind and it finds something in there that it views as a threat (an event that happened in the past), it will then focus your full attention on what it perceives as a threat. It’s like it is trying to help you. Like a sentry on guard. Right there and then it’s as if all those files that you have locked away have been opened inside your head and you are thinking with your logical mind “why do I feel like this”.
Your subconscious has just been triggered and it will do everything it can to stop you in your tracks. In the filing cabinet of your mind something has been stored as a threat. Your mind has learned a lesson way back that has made you feel hurt or reactive. You may have taken on a belief that is now driving the show and it is that belief that is the star performer.
I work with your subconscious mind to help you release the hurt, the fear, the anxiety, the fake beliefs, in the most respectful way so you can begin to live life the way you want to.
How soon can I start?
There is normally a waiting list as I only work with a small number of clients at any given time.
Currently the wait time is about six weeks. If you need a referral to another therapist , I will help in any way I can.
How much does each session cost?
The cost at the moment is €100.00 per session payable before your appointment.
Each session lasts a full hour. Occasionally this may last a little longer if something important arises.
Have you dealt with anything like this before?
Yes! If I had a penny for each time I have been asked this I would be very rich.
I have worked with many clients with different issues. They have all thought they are the only ones who have experienced what they are experiencing. I specialise in helping clients overcome anxiety in all its guises.
I would think I'm unshockable at this stage.
How often should I attend?
It really all depends on the therapy. Experience has taught me that weekly sessions produce best results. My work is much faster and much quicker. You will not need to attend any longer than is necessary.

Since working with Margaret, I have given many presentations to large groups and cannot believe that I have been on radio on numerous occasions. It's all thanks to Margaret's hard work and great CD. She worked her magic. No words can express my gratitude to her."
What’s the Story
Stay up to date with my take on the world
My fringe was beyond my nose
When I was out walking my hair flapped like one of those dogs with long ears. I lasted five months. Then drastic measures had to be taken.
Restrictions
As we become so familiar with the word “restrictions” where we are all asked to control our actions which limit us is many ways. How could you turn that into a positive?
Staying in your own bubble
As we move forward from this pandemic we are asked to continue to stay in our own bubble as much as possible. We can visit family and friends but being mindful of washing our hands and continuing to wear masks and keep that social distance of two metres.
The masks we wear
We have all gotten used to wearing masks (the physical ones). We have been used to masks on an emotional level too. Each of us wear masks to hide our true feelings. The “I’m fine” mask is well known.
The pebble in my shoe
This morning I woke up, showered and dressed. As I put on my shoes, I didn’t notice the pebble there.
Vibrations
My watch pings. My phone vibrates. My email dings. It’s as if there is a message everywhere every moment saying something like “hurry I’m speaking to you – can you not hear the vibrations – get stressed – I’m important – answer me – be at my beck and call – now – now – now – vibration – vibration – vibration.
A new perspective
Last week I had a second cataract operation. The left eye this time.

I don’t know about you, but every so often my emails get chock-a-block with rubbish.
Alexa goes for Therapy
I’m sick of it. They never stop. It seems like the whole world is shouting at me:
Healing in Covid Times
Listen to my audio and take a moment to consider Healing in Covid Times.
A Glimmer of Hope
A long long time ago, the glimmerman lit the gas lights in the streets when it got dark. He lit his lights so people could see, so they could find their way through the darkness.
Changing times, new learnings
Comedy is so important right now. When you laugh you send happy feelings throughout your body.That has to be good for your immune system. And we need to keep our immune system happy and healthy.
