Art Therapy Counselling in Dublin
Therapy for Conscious Change.
Speed matters, but quality of life is defined by self-understanding. If you seek a professional guide who values your time and readiness for transformation over just a "chat" - you are in the right place. I believe no situation is unsolvable; there are only paths yet to be paved.
I am Andriy Mazurenko, an integrative psychotherapist and sexologist. I balance swift, issue-specific work with deep, long-term therapy. Avoiding "one-size-fits-all" templates, I combine tools to suit your individual dynamics and explore the foundations of your personality.

I am an integrative psychotherapist and draw from person-centred, psychodynamic, cognitive approaches, gestalt, body-based approaches and art and creative processes according to the unique needs of each individual client.
I have extensive experience (20+ years) working as a counsellor and psychotherapist on a wide range of issues, including depression, anxiety, sexuality-related issues, trauma, life crises and neurodiversity. I also have extensive experience working as a clinical supervisor as well as providing expert support to trainee psychotherapists. I believe that all individuals seeking psychotherapy have the ability to find their own way forward within the supportive and safe space that the therapeutic relationship can offer. And that by sharing their unique struggles and blocks with their therapist that they can move to living a better life.

Therapist specialising in Anxiety and Trauma Therapy Intensives
Do you feel stuck in a cycle of anxiety, overthinking, overwhelm, or the impact of past experiences?

Maybe you've tried to work through things on your own, read the books, listened to the podcasts, or even had therapy before, but still find yourself returning to the same patterns.
If you're looking for meaningful change but don't want to commit to months or years of weekly therapy, a Therapy Intensive may be a good fit.

I have over twenty years experience working as an art therapist in schools and community settings, most recently with Barnardos since 2021.
When things feel too much it is hard to respond creatively to life's challenges. Our natural tendency is to seek safety in the known and we may fall into old defensive patterns. This can be at the heart of a feeling of stuck-ness in our lives and may show up in anxiety, depression, anger, relationship difficulties, and the feeling that life is more of a struggle than it needs to be.

Do you feel 'stuck' or overwhelmed by life's transitions? I work best with individuals who feel disconnected from themselves or weighed down by anxiety and persistent stress. Perhaps your usual coping mechanisms no longer feel like enough, and you’re looking for a safe, non-judgmental space to process the weight of burnout or complex relationship patterns. My ideal clients are ready to look beneath the surface and want a therapist who is both a compassionate listener and an active collaborator. Together, we will move from simply 'getting by' to living a life that feels authentic, empowered, and deeply aligned with who you truly are

I have been working as a psychologist for over 15 years, and throughout my journey, I’ve learned that empathy and providing a safe and welcoming environment are the most important tools for practicing this profession with excellence. I believe that each person brings unique needs that must be addressed with sensitivity and care.

You might be feeling overwhelmed, stuck in painful patterns, or carrying experiences that feel too heavy to hold alone. I work with people facing trauma, addiction, domestic abuse, bereavement, anger, relationship difficulties, sexual abuse, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. Often, my clients want more than coping — they want relief, clarity and a way back to themselves. Together, we can create a space where you can feel heard, understood and supported to move toward a stronger, freer version of you.

Art Therapy Counsellors
How does art therapy work?
The process of making art allows people to express themselves. Art-making can take many forms, such as painting, collage, or sculpting. The therapist asks questions that the work elicits, such as how the person felt while creating their piece, or if any memories surfaced that they can discuss. The therapist will then work with the patient to process their experience, understand themselves better, and work toward change.
Does art therapy help with trauma?
Art therapy can be a valuable treatment option for those suffering from trauma. Traumatic experiences such as combat, rape, or childhood abuse can be so painful that articulating them can be too scary or painful; creating art allows people to express themselves without words, and tell their story in a different way. The physical nature of creating art can also help people feel rooted in the body, which may benefit those who feel disconnected from their body in the aftermath of trauma.
How long does art therapy last?
The duration of art therapy varies, but a common length for treatment is 10 to 15 weekly sessions. Some people may see improvement in just a few weeks, while others may choose to remain in therapy longer term. Patients should periodically discuss their goals with their therapist to make sure the two are aligned on process and progress.
What are the limitations of art therapy?
Art therapy is helpful for many people, but a limitation is that it doesn’t have as robust an evidence base as other forms of therapy, such as cognitive behavioural therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy. The evidence on art therapy is mixed; some research demonstrates its benefits, while other research suggests that it has little impact on patients.
