I work with relationship issues, codependency, abuse, trauma,anxiety, dysregulation, depression, bereavement as well as general counselling and psychotherapy.
Therapy provides a safe, non-judgemental and confidential space to explore your thoughts, feelings and behaviors; whether you are in crisis, needing support, or you want to make changes in your life. Here you will be met with acceptance, empathy and compassion as you begin your unique journey. I view each client as an individual and believe if given the appropriate conditions, the client will develop an awareness and insight into themselves to help overcome their challenges. I work relationally and collaboratively with the client. Research identifies the best outcome for the client centres on the therapeutic relationship.

Nosce Te Ipsum. Therapy begins with a dialogue about what indeed brought the client into the therapeutic setting. Clients’ thoughts, feelings and experiences provide much of the fodder for a therapeutic dialogue. Much of the work in therapy involves making sense of these thoughts and emotions. The therapist educes the client’s stories; clients narrate and share them. This integrative framework provide the lens in which I listen and connect to the narratives and presenting issues of my clients. As the tempo takes its momentum, a gradual progression of humanistic kinship, trust and understanding between my client and I are entrenched.

Sometimes in life we experience overwhelming times where we feel unseen, unheard or misunderstood. In this place we can feel depression, anxiety, grief, loss, isolation and have a sense that we are disconnected from our true selves. Coming to therapy can feel dauting and so I offer a safe confidential space where one can explore their presenting issues through the lens of their internal and external worlds, identifing their needs and goals. We gently challenge established thoughts and behaviours as we move through a journey of self discovery, awareness, and acceptance in a warm, empathic, supportive & non-judgemental environment.

Ideal clients are people who look fine on the outside but feel stuck inside: anxiety, overwhelm, trauma triggers, OCD patterns, grief, addiction, burnout, or relationship stress. They come because they can’t switch off, sleep is poor, emotions feel too much or nothing, and the same patterns keep repeating. I help by getting to the root cause, not just managing symptoms. I specialise in trauma-informed psychotherapy and use practical tools clients can use in real life to feel calmer, clearer, and back in control.

My name is Éadaoin and you are very welcome to my profile page. We alI know that life can be challenging and at times we may find ourselves feeling stuck. We live in such a fast paced world it becomes all too easy to relegate our own needs to the bottom of our list of priorities. I believe that we all have the creativity within us to grow and adapt to any situation that comes our way. Sometimes we need a safe space in order to rediscover who we are, where we are and what it is that we actually want for our one and only precious life. A space to untangle and recreate the life that we want to live.

Reading this shows that you are being proactive about taking care of yourself. While the motivation to seek support can often come from a place of discomfort or distress, therapy can help people move from crisis to personal growth. I offer compassionate expertise, psycho-education, support, reassurance, validation and guidance as healing resources for those that choose to work with me. You do not have to have anything "figured out" before contacting me; I know that starting therapy can feel like asking for something that is hard to ask for but important to get.

Codependency Counsellors
What therapy types help with codependency problems?
Both couples and family therapy and cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT) can help with the relationship difficulties referred to as codependency. Such problems typically include inappropriate feelings of responsibility for a loved one’s destructive behavior, irrational patterns of thinking about such behavior, and family interaction patterns in which the needs of one troubled member override the needs of others in a household.

What happens in therapy for codependency?
Spouses and family members learn and practice how to interact and support each other in a healthy way without sacrificing their own needs or well-being. They learn the limits of their responsibility for their loved ones and correct faulty patterns of thinking and feeling that underlie codependent behavior. Individuals may be encouraged to nurture an array of social relationships and to cultivate their own talents and interests so that they develop a healthy sense of self outside the family.

How does therapy help a person or couple overcome codependency?
Therapy helps people establish healthy ways of being in a relationship. Spouses and family members learn how to nurture and support one another without sacrificing their own needs or allowing the needs of one person to dominate the dynamic. Individuals learn how to say no and set boundaries, and how to maintain their own identity and self-esteem. Therapy helps people understand that they are not responsible for the feelings and actions of others. It also helps individuals deal with the turbulence that can come from living with a person suffering from such conditions as substance abuse and mental illness.

What is the goal of therapy for codependency?
One goal of therapy for codependency is to alleviate feelings of responsibility for and correct irrational patterns of thinking about loved ones whose behavioral problems override the needs of others in a household. Therapy helps people establish healthy boundaries of behavior and speak up for their own needs in a relationship. In addition, people learn how to maintain a healthy relationship, one in which both parties give and receive equally and are able to retain their own identity.
