Grace is an an integrative, psychodynamic psychotherapist, who will incorporate elements of art, poetry, play, and improvisation to support others to make better sense of their lived experience.
Grace's practice is called "Aiteall Therapy". The word "Aiteall" (pronounced: atch - ill) is an Irish language word that describes a period of pleasant sunshine between two rain showers. Life, much like the weather, is not always bright and calm. Storms will come, and the rain will fall.

About Me & My Practice I am not a traditional coach, nor do I offer passive talk therapy. I am a clinically trained Psychological Architect (MSc, MIACP) specializing in what I call the 'Curse of the High Achiever.' My practice is built for individuals navigating intense operational pressure, elite ascension, or the challenging aftermath of a personal or professional fall. Often, the very success that makes you a pillar for others renders you invisible to standard support networks. You are the asset everyone relies on, but who is auditing your structural integrity?

I work with couples and individuals navigating the patterns and challenges that show up in relationships, communication breakdown, conflict, distance, and disconnection, the ways two people can end up feeling stuck with each other. I also work with individuals making sense of their own relational patterns: why certain dynamics repeat, and what gets in the way of closer connection. Many of my clients are high-achieving professionals, used to holding things together for everyone else, who are now navigating anxiety, stress, burnout, or a difficult transition alongside relationship strain.

Trained psychotherapist working with individual adults for 14 years on a wide range of issues and concerns. I provide a confidential space, so that clients can begin talking about the issues that are currently of concern to them. We work collaboratively together to raise understanding, increase awareness, gain insight and expand self knowledge. This increased self awareness can then facilitate decision making that is more aligned going forwards

Psychotherapist, Pre-Accredited Member IACP
Dublin, County D06
You may be feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or burnt out from constantly adapting to a world that doesn’t always make space for difference. Perhaps you’re exploring your neurodivergence (ADHD, autism, AuDHD, or PDA) or navigating addiction, trauma, grief, or emotional overwhelm. You might long to understand yourself better, find balance, or simply feel safe in your own body. My clients often come to therapy tired of surviving alone, ready to be met with curiosity, compassion, and understanding rather than judgment.

I am a licensed therapist who primarily works with couples who feel stuck in the same painful patterns - maybe repeating arguments, growing distance, or feeling misunderstood even when they’re trying hard to connect. My work is informed by Emotionally Focused Therapy and Compassion-Focused Therapy, with an emphasis on helping partners slow things down, understand what’s happening underneath the conflict, and rebuild a sense of emotional safety with each other.

I specialise in Schema Therapy and also draw on ACT, DBT and psychodynamic therapy approaches.
Feeling low, anxious, over-analyzing, being detached, feeling lost, feeling guilty, having a strong critical voice, having relationship problems, being told you are over-sensitive-these are all issues we can look at in-depth. You may have a diagnosis but it is usually much more helpful to look at a formulation or map of your difficulties. I am passionate about working with people who want to really understand what is contributing to their difficulties, and want to engage in experiential work to deeply address these. I specialise in Schema Therapy as it not only seeks to bring deep understanding, but also deep healing.

My own journey into psychology began with an interest into how we tick as human beings and why some of us seem to suffer and cope better than others. I soon realised that where I really needed to be was with people, helping them better understand and heal themselves. Now, as a qualified psychotherapist for many years, I not only get to do just that, but I also get to witness first-hand the courage and growth of my clients that is forever inspirational.
