Counselling in Dublin

Sometimes in life you need a place to explore the difficulties that arise. Either behaviours, feelings or emotions. At times you need to be listened to confidentially and without judgement. What troubles our minds can have such a negative impact on the quality of our lives. Psychological troubles come in many forms, relational both to oneself and to others, grief and loss, behavioural problems from anxiety or depression and rage or sometimes it's hard to tell exactly what it is, only a sense that things are not right. The first brave step to take is to share that difficulty.

I believe the relationship between a client and their therapist is the cornerstone of what therapy is about. My approach values the whole person, mind, body, and soul, thoughts, feelings, and emotions. A relationship that is built on trust, honesty, and respect in a confidential space. I use an integrative humanistic approach. My work is primarily grounded on Person-centered therapy, choice theory, mindfulness, and existential therapies. I also work in areas of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Family Systems. My goal is to work together with a client to create a counselling journey that is right for you in total confidence.

Hi! I'm Owen, a humanistic & integrative psychotherapist and counsellor. I work with a broad range of issues. However I also specialise in LGBTQ+ and Gender, Sexual & Relationship Diversities (GSRD) therapy. This means that I will provide full acceptance of who you are, regardless of how you identify. I view no person or issue as being more important than another. I see both of us working together as unique individuals. I've seen how life can throw many different challenges which can cause us to question our sense of self. Yet I also believe that such challenges can offer us opportunities to develop and grow - perhaps even flourish!

Meeting regularly with a psychotherapist or psychoanalyst can be one of the most important steps a person takes on the road to better mental health. Dedicating the time and commitment to this has proven in our experience, to work in the alleviation of a range of personal difficulties. These difficulties can include depression, obsessional thinking, eating disorders, anxiety, sexuality issues, relationship difficulties, loneliness and isolation and chronic fatigue. Working with a therapist over a period of time is an important and active step toward a better sense of self, better relationships and overall good mental health.

I have a special interest in helping men who can get ‘stuck’ and struggle with transitions in life such as retirement from sport, losing a job, divorce, re-locating or simply helping you to figure out a purpose for what comes next. My approach is simple; non-judgmental, open and empathetic to client experiences. I take a broad perspective to understanding my client experiences and integrate historical information to formulating a plan to help clients resolve problems now. Depression, anxiety disorders, loneliness, anger and substance abuse are key areas that I specialize in.

Would you like to learn more about how you handle various issues and situations in your life. In therapy you may gain a sense of empowerment and learn to change your way of managing various stressors.

We all want to feel empowered to live our best life. The problem for most of us is that we don't know how and end up feeling depressed, anxious, frustrated or stuck – and we usually turn to food, alcohol, drugs or other behaviours to help us feel better. If this seems familiar, I can help YOU take back control of YOUR life. Working integratively I include all of the elements that make up your whole person including conscious thoughts, unconscious senses, behaviours, somatic sensations and systemic influences. Contacting me is the first step towards YOU becoming empowered to create YOUR best life!

Are you noticing repetitive patterns of suffering or discontent in your life? Are you overwhelmed and struggling with a difficulty in some aspect of your life? Perhaps you have a curiosity about these repetitive patterns or why things occur the way they do in your life? I offer a place where you can be guided towards being reflective and self-aware in your discovery of the reasons underlying the struggles you are experiencing. With the support of individual therapy sessions, we can work towards closing the gap between where you are right now and where you want to be.

When something in your life is not how you'd like it to be, or when you're looking for help and support for something that you're going through; perhaps a life event, a particular concern or maybe problems with relationships, at home, in school or at work. Maybe you are experiencing feelings of anxiety, frustration, fear, sadness or other emotions. Stress can be a part of this. Counselling can help you to better understand what might be going on for you, and to find ways to effectively manage feelings, thoughts or worries. My experience is that clients come to counselling because they want something in their life to be different.

The client who is motivated to engage with the work of therapy is my ideal client, whether it is in Individual Therapy or Group Therapy. I meet with a new client for a number of sessions so that we can decide together what might be the most beneficial form of therapy. From there, the client usually agrees to make a commitment to meeting regularly, giving themselves the time it takes to begin the know and understand their emotional issues.

There are many reasons people go to counselling; to resolve deep rooted problems from the past, help to overcome current challenges and/or worries about the future. Everyone is unique and we can work together to create a counselling journey that’s right for you, in total confidence. This is a supportive, confidential safe space to facilitate your personal growth and change. If you have concerns about your mental health, and need a supportive space to talk though these issues, please get in touch.

Do you feel unsatisfied with the direction of your life and the quality of your relationships? If so you are certainly not alone. Maybe you've been struggling with issues in your life, feeling stuck, unhappy, or overwhelmed. Is the past holding you back? Hi, my name is Kevin Gilligan and I am a qualified Counsellor/Psychotherapist. Sometimes it maybe easier to talk about personal, family, or relationship issues with an independent person. Your story, your pain, and collection of struggles are unique to you.

As a psychotherapist I look to offer a safe supportive space for clients to talk about what is going on in their life so that they can become clearer about what they might need to shift or change. Everyone needs help from time to time and it can help to talk to someone outside your usual circle in a confidential setting. I have being working as an accredited psychotherapist for over 18 years now. My areas of specialization are broad.

I work with people who have a variety of difficulties and varying degrees of distress, such as depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, addiction, and bereavement. I strive to offer a safe, supportive and understanding space for all my clients. I very much believe (and have seen in practice) that therapy is a helpful means for resolving current and/or past issues which may affect people and constrain their ability to lead a fully functional and satisfying life. I have a special interest in (i) psychotherapy for older adults, (ii) addiction and (iii) couples therapy.

Work pressures, financial worries, relationship problems, and unresolved personal issues can all impact on the way we feel about ourselves and the way we perceive the world around us. Do you ever wonder why the same problems keep arising or why the same mistakes keep occurring? Where our feelings and thoughts become overwhelming they can cause us to feel lost, fearful, and lonely.

Wherever you are. However you are. You are welcome. Yes, sometimes we just can’t do it on our own and we need help. Therapy is one way to resource yourself to meet some of life’s challenges. Crippling anxiety, overwhelming grief, black depression are sources of deep pain and dark suffering. They can also be as a consequence of early traumatic experiences or negative beliefs we hold about ourselves. To accept where you are is the first step in healing yourself. Hi, I’m Liam and I create a safe place for you to explore your world, where I meet you with compassion and non-judgement in a confidential setting.
