"Dearbhla really connected with my daughter in a way that never happened before. She saw in her untapped abilities and showed her future potential. My daughter started to believe in herself more and see a clearer future. At school her learning had more meaning. The disinterested person that she was is no longer there. Now she is more enthusiastic about her life!"Father of Leaving Cert student 2009
"I took my son to Dearbhla at a time that he was very anxious about his future. He didn't have a clue what he wanted to do. After seeing Dearbhla I noticed a great change. He was less nervous and more confident about himself. He is now heading to a course and college that suits his needs and personality. My son is walking taller these days and knows where he is going"Mother of Leaving Cert Student 2009
"I was stuck in a rut in a job where I felt stifled. Overall I felt trapped in a permanent pensionable post and felt there was no way out. Dearbhla met me and highlighted all my gifts both inside and outside of work. She made me aware of many of the skills that I had that I took for granted. With her help I overcame the barriers inside my head. Dearbhla worked with me to give me the language and confidence I needed to move on to better things. At the end of the session, I had a stunning CV and winning cover letter that left me smiling and wondering 'Could this REALLY be me?'"Primary Teacher
"Looking back I felt that Dearbhla's down to earth approach suited me as a teenager. In my sessions with her I understood myself better and why I was the way I was. She pointed out the merits of my creativity. Today, I am glad that I honoured my creativity as I have graduated from NCAD and have held art exhibitions throughout Dublin.
