Hi, my name is Georgia Cashman. I work as a humanistic and integrative counsellor in Cork, both in person and online via Zoom. I have a genuine interest in helping others, and a big positive for me doing this work, is helping people gain perspective in their lives. My role is to facilitate clients in getting to a place where shame, guilt, and feelings of 'not being good enough' can be managed, so that they can reach their full potential and not be held back by negative and disempowering feelings and emotions. I am here to listen.

I work exclusively with couples. Many people come to me when they are in the middle of a specific crisis, feeling a deep sense of flatness, or are at a crossroads trying to decide the future of their relationship. Whether you are seeking marriage counselling or are in a committed long-term relationship, I provide the support you need to find clarity. I am passionate about helping couples build a solid connection and, where possible, avoid premature divorce. I never suggest ending a relationship; my role is to facilitate your goals. I also help those who want to separate to create a "good ending" with mutual respect.

I work with individuals navigating relocations, career transitions, relationship changes and major life transitions. Having lived and worked all around the world myself, I understand how disorienting major life changes can feel. My approach is integrative and relational, blending elements of traditional therapy with coaching, regulation practices and the body-mind connection. I’ve worked with many therapists and coaches myself, so I truly understand the vulnerability that comes with reaching out for help. All sessions are fully online, so location is never a barrier.

Quote Pema Chodron- 'Nothing ever goes away until it has taught us what we need to know'. It takes a brave person to reach out to another, whether it is for help with an issue you are already aware of, or as a means of understanding yourself a bit better. We can all become 'stuck'. I believe the potential to grow and heal comes from within. Alot of our life's struggles are relational, how we are in relation to our view of ourselves and how we experience the quality of our connection to others.

The transition to motherhood is one of the most profound psychological and physical shifts a person can experience. It is common for this journey to bring unexpected challenges, including anxiety, the lingering effects of a traumatic birth, or a struggle to reconcile your new identity with the one you knew before. What you are feeling is not a sign of failure, but a valid response to a transformative life event. Your mind and body are navigating immense change, and it is understandable to feel overwhelmed. My aim is to be a safe space for you to navigate this change using the best perinatal evidence based interventions

Gottman Method Counsellors
How does the Gottman method work?
One of the core doctrines of the Gottman method is that negative emotions hurt relationships about five times more than positive emotions help them. Thus, couples require five times more positive interactions than negative interactions with each other. The therapist will guide clients on how to improve communication and understanding of each other to manage conflict and have their emotional needs met. The therapist will also advise couples on how to repair relations with each other when conflict arises, and therefore avoid lasting damage.

Is the Gottman method evidence-based?
Yes, this method is an evidence-based approach to couples therapy. The method is based on more than 40 years of research by Drs. John and Julie Gottman, the psychologists who developed the method. The Gottmans analysed decades of data to draw conclusions about what types of interactions are likely to lead to specific results, and which interventions are most likely to lead to success. Studies have found that this approach leads to improvements in relationship satisfaction, intimacy, communication skills, and a lower rate of divorce.

How long does the Gottman method take?
The duration of treatment depends on the specific challenges clients face. Sessions are typically 60 to 90 minutes long, and an average course of treatment is around 10 sessions. In some cases, such as for couples dealing with a critical problem, the therapist will suggest an intensive course of treatment, with daily sessions over the first two to four days. Treatment is complete when the couple is satisfied and has met the goals they’ve set, and when the therapist believes they have the skills to continue on their own.

Is the Gottman method effective?
Through the Gottman method, couples can achieve changes that are real and sustainable. This treatment has been used for more than 40 years; the method is supported by empirical research, including randomised controlled trials that have demonstrated effectiveness in improving relationship outcomes for couples. Like any talk therapy, success or failure depends in large part on how committed the clients are to making positive changes and working toward results.
