Sheena Burke

My professional background is in clinical and educational psychology.  I am a Chartered Psychologist with the Psychological Society of Ireland, with qualifications in both clinical and educational psychology. Having discovered mindfulness as a way of supporting me through a particularly difficult time in my life, I also discovered an unanticipated renewed joy and curiosity for living well. 

I follow the good practice guidelines for teaching mindfulness and I am a certified MBSR teacher with the Mindful Academy and a .b Foundations Teacher with the Mindfulness in Schools project. I am also a member of the Mindfulness Teachers' Association of Ireland (www.mtai.ie).  I offer mindfulness training in my local community through my private practice, Discovering Mindfulness. I have introduced mindfulness training as part of my work with the School of Education, University College Dublin. I am also a co-trainer of MBSR (mindfulness) teachers at the Mindful Academy Solterreno, Spain.
