Having worked as a Consultant Clinical Psychologist for the past 5 years, I have a wealth of experience and training in different types of psychological therapy, making me well placed to identify and offer the therapies that would best suit your needs.

Working collaboratively, we can explore the right tools to come up with a tailor-made approach to assist you in improving your emotional well-being. Working at a comfortable pace for you, gaining a different perspective and acquiring new skills along the way, it is possible to achieve a healthy emotional well-being that supports you in your day-to-day life.

I have 21 years experience in counselling a variety of clients, in a wide range of issues. The CORE conditions of Empathy, Respect and Genuineness, remain at the very centre and basis of my work with all clients, to enhance safety and trust. I offer clients both short or long term counselling, depending on their requirements and issues presented. In my experience clients bring a varied host of issues such as anxiety, stress, depression, abuse, relationship concerns, pregnancy related issues prenatal and post partum, life stage, bereavement, grief and loss, confidence and self esteem, work related issues, including work/life balance.

The most important thing to me is that clients feel heard, respected and safe to discuss the issues that have brought them to counselling. I can offer clients both short or long term counselling. I qualified in 2000 and have been working as a counsellor on a continual basis since then. I also offer clinical Supervision for both counsellors and other care providers. I offer both one to one and couples therapy (Relate NI Trained) . I have my own private practice and premises that are fully accessible including free parking. I am available 9.30 - 7pm Monday - Thursday

My name is Seán, and I am qualified counsellor currently registered with BACP. As I currently work in the charity sector, I have extensive experience working with a very broad spectrum of clients, of various ethnic and cultural backgrounds, sexualities, and gender expressions. As a result of this, I have sought additional training on many topics, such as domestic violence, trauma, and the LGBTQ+ experience in Northern Ireland. Additionally, in my recent education at Ulster University, I undertook some research into social anxiety, giving me a more specialist knowledge of that topic.

I am one half of Different Therapy; distinct, individual, diverse - celebrating and embracing difference in our clients. My passion for counselling began many years ago when I benefited from personal therapy and continues to grow as I see how my clients find ways to discover healing and growth . Unresolved issues have a way of coming back on us as we move through adult life. I will offer you a safe space to explore whatever is bringing you to counselling. It is a privilege beyond measure to work therapeutically with others. I will help you reach your goals, feel better within yourself and learn to love all of your parts.

Hi, my name is Seán and I am a fully qualified integrative counsellor and a registered member of the BACP. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. I believe that counselling can not only help us explore, understand and address difficult thoughts, feelings and behaviours, but can also support us in becoming the best version of ourselves possible. By helping us explore our relationships, embrace change and grow in self awareness, a positive therapeutic experience can ultimately help us feel more content with our lives and who we are as individuals.

As a Systemic Psychotherapist I work with individuals, couples, families, organisations & groups. I have particular specialism in working with couple and marriage dilemmas, separation and divorce/dissolution. Systemic therapy can often be described as a 'relational' type of psychotherapy and entails working with the many different relationships we exist in as part of our daily lives. Relationships can be a great strength and resource in our lives. Other times, problems and challenges can get created in our relationships with others where we feel 'stuck' and can begin to negatively impact our lives.

If you’re seeking a calm, friendly environment in which to address issues which are distressing or frustrating you and you need someone to offer a warm welcome and show sincere interest in your needs I can provide this space for you and would love to be the person to support you. I’ve worked with many people helping them find solutions to their problems and relief from emotional stress. Counselling provides a place for your voice to be heard, your feelings expressed and new ways of thinking and living to be explored. There can be moments of pain and tears but also moments of great release and insight and even laughter and joy.

Are you looking for effective therapy that is pragmatic, realistic and down to earth? I am an integrative therapist offering a warm and compassionate approach that is tailored to your individual needs. I will work collaboratively with you to resolve the inevitable struggles that are part of life. If you feel you are ready to take those first tentative steps to alleviate your distress and live a richer and more meaningful life then please call me for a free/no obligation telephone consultation.

It is incredibly important that you feel comfortable with your counsellor so you are able to explore your reasons for coming to therapy, in a relaxed, safe, non-judgemental space. I believe that counselling can be a life changing experience given the correct environment & therapeutic relationship. I am a client led therapist, in other words, you will always be in charge of your therapy. As a sex-positive & kink aware counsellor, trained in GSRD, I provide a space for clients, both individuals & intimate partners, to talk openly about these subjects, & have experience of working with clients who fall under the kink & BDSM umbrella.

Hello and welcome. I am a qualified Integrative Counsellor. What this means is I am trained in a number of different psychological approaches such as CBT, Psychodynamic and Person-Centered. Having knowledge from a range of approaches allows me to tailor your sessions around you, your needs and goals. I aim to offer a safe, caring and non-judgmental environment where you can increase your awareness, experience growth, explore change and gain insight into your life and the world around you.

I am a BABCP accredited Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist trained in providing psychological assessments and tailored interventions for children, adolescents and adults. CBT helps to provide clients with a deeper understanding of difficult emotions which can be overwhelming and impact on day to day life. This is achieved by collaboratively exploring life events, patterns of thinking and examining behaviours which may intensify unwanted feelings. By learning to challenge unhelpful thinking and behaving, clients can begin to achieve their therapeutic goals and develop an understanding of how to address future difficulties.

People usually come to therapy because they are in distress, grieving or dissatisfied with certain aspects of their lives and want to address this. Facing change or loss and allowing yourself to be vulnerable can be daunting. I am committed to supporting you through your journey, providing safety, warmth, empathy and consistent reliable support.

I am an accredited member of BACP and NCS. I have substantial experience working with both children and adults. I work in primary schools and also in the local community to provide quality counselling to help people be the best they can be. I am also CEO of a mental health charity and offer consultancy work as well as supervision. My approach is integrative so that I can tailor the service specifically for individual clients and longer term work. I also offer personal therapy for students training to be counsellors.

I am a qualified integrative counsellor offering a confidential and understanding service for adults, children and young people who are facing a range of challenges and emotional difficulties. There are many reasons why an individual seeks counselling, and I understand that it can feel like a big decision where you may feel nervous, uncertain or vulnerable. My first step is to offer you a safe, non-judgemental space, where you will feel able to explore your own thoughts and feelings. This offers you space to understand the underlying feelings that can make you feel low, stuck, empty or overwhelmed.
