LGBTQ+ Affirming Counselling in Dublin
Some people need help with their relationship dynamics whether it’s with their families and friends, romantic, or sexual. There may be patterns of being with people that just aren’t working anymore and feel like they need to change.
Other people might be struggling with identity. This may be due to moving to Ireland from a different culture and trying to adjust to the way things are in Ireland. For others the feeling of not fitting in may be due to other issues such as gender, sexual orientation or ability.
Life situations and events can cause us to feel depressed, anxious, scared and alone. It can be hard knowing how to cope.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by racing thoughts, relationship tension, or a sense of stuckness you can't quite shake? Whether you are navigating a personal crisis or looking to heal long-standing patterns, you don't have to navigate this alone.
As a qualified Counsellor and Psychotherapist, I provide a safe, culturally sensitive space where your story is heard. My practice is built on evidence-based modalities, integrating Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic, and Humanistic approaches. This means our work is deeper than just 'talking'—it is a collaborative process tailored to help you regain control and find balance.

Are you finding it hard to manage your emotions, relationships, or sense of self, and feel that something needs to change? Reaching out for support is a courageous first step, and it’s often where healing begins. As a Chartered Counselling Psychologist, I’m here to walk alongside you in that process. At the heart of my work is the belief that people are not problems to be solved, but individuals navigating complex emotional experiences. Therapy can be a place to better understand yourself, soften your negative inner critic, and develop new ways of relating to your emotions and relationships.

Life is full of ups and downs, and it's completely normal to feel overwhelmed or unsure about how to cope, at times. Taking the step to seek help can indeed feel daunting, but in my practice, I aim to make that process as comfortable and supportive as possible. When you step into my therapy space, you'll find a welcoming atmosphere where you're accepted just as you are. Whether you're grappling with past traumas, current stressors, or uncertainty about the future, I provide a warm and non-judgmental space where you can feel safe to open up and explore whatever is on your mind.

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.

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.

Bilingual (Polish–English), LGBTQ+ affirming and culturally sensitive support.

Together we make sense of your thoughts, manage emotions, and develop strategies that actually work—helping you feel more in control, understood, and able to move forward.

I work with people who have a variety of difficulties and varying degrees of distress, such as depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, addiction, and bereavement.

“One day, in retrospect, the years of struggle will strike you as the most beautiful”. My work is psychoanalytically oriented and is based on the belief that you already have the solution. So, let’s find it! The practice of psychoanalytic psychotherapy recognises that often, the language (verbal and non-verbal) of that solution only needs to be heard in order to be consciously realised and put into action. I will help you identify and define this language.

I work with adults who have spent years feeling "too much" or "not enough", misunderstood, unable to fulfil potential or find the motivation to do the things they would like to, burnt out before discovering they are ADHD and/or autistic — often in college or midlife. As a late-diagnosed ADHD psychologist and mother, I understand how life-changing (and at times destabilising) this realisation can be. I offer a safe, respectful, compassionate space to explore identity, trauma, emotional regulation, relationships, and self-criticism, helping you move from survival to self-understanding and self-trust, at a pace that suits you.

I am a Lacanian Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist with MSc(Hons) from UCD, taught at St.Vincent’s Hospital. My clinical formation on the course included 2 years of weekly case conferences with the psychiatry department, shaping a strong foundation in working with complex presentations.
