Counselling in Ardoyne, Belfast

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.

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 am available 9.30 - 7pm Monday - Thursday

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’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.

I provide a safe, supportive, empathic and therapeutic space and service for those who wish to explore and address any issues and concerns.

Have you been feeling stuck in life? Perhaps you want to explore more about yourself or overcome some of life's undoubtedly hard moments. I use an integrative approach as this allows me to tailor the therapy to your specific wants and needs. Do you want solution focused therapy? or maybe you want to delve into your past to understand yourself more so. The power of working together is at the heart of every therapeutic relationship and change is possible. Therapy is not something that is done to you, it's done WITH you.

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.

I am one half of Different Therapy; distinct, individual, diverse - celebrating and embracing difference in our clients. My passion for counselling comes from a time when I benefited from the support of a wonderful counsellor as I struggled to make sense of situations in my personal life. Childhood family 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 it is that brings you to counselling. I will meet you where you are now and go with you on your journey. I will help you reach your goals, feel better within yourself and learn to love all of your parts.
