Psychosis Counselling in Dublin
In my practice, I have accompanied individuals dealing with a wide range of difficulties, including anxiety, depression, obsessive thoughts, grief, relationship challenges, sexuality, and psychosis.
I am a psychologist and psychoanalytic psychotherapist. My clinical journey began in Brazil, where I qualified in 2009, and continued with a Master’s in Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy from University College Dublin (UCD).
Over the years, I have worked with individuals navigating emotionally complex and transformative processes. Much of my clinical work has involved helping people who carry unresolved experiences from the past — experiences that continue to shape their lives in ways that are often unconscious.

I aim to offer support through my psychoanalytic practice to Italian speakers who live in Ireland. I expect much of my work will hold and contain their feelings of loss at being away from home, as well as the fear of disintegration brought about by the hard task that living in a country with a different culture and language may bring up.

Gabriela is a Multilingual MIACP accredited Psychotherapist and Logotherapist. Her practice is rooted in Multicultural Humility, combining Clinical Precision with the depth of Existential and Psychoanalytic Thought to honor the intersecting identities of her clients. Gabriela’s perspective on the human condition was forged at the intersection of high-touch human vulnerability in Romanian orphanages and high-tech medical intervention in Irish hospitals. This transition to the "Soul-Work" of psychotherapy was a natural evolution. She believes while Medicine can heal the Body, the Human Spirit must navigate the Search for Meaning.

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.

Coming to therapy is the first step to doing something about changing an aspect of your life that is causing you distress, or overwhelming you to such a degree that it is holding you back or keeping you stuck. Do not feel you have to suffer in silence. Your problems could be the way you interpret things or the lens through which you view things. Sometimes our thinking patterns need to be challenged, and we can find alternative and more useful ways of seeing things, leading to a more fulfilling life for ourselves. Therapy is about growth in our thinking , this leading to more positive thinking, leading to a better quality life.

Clients who attend my practice are adults who feel stuck—anxious, empty, or caught in patterns they can't break. Some come exhausted by worry that won't quiet. Others feel numb, going through motions without joy. Many are navigating hard transitions: parenthood, loss, career changes, and relationship endings. Some repeat the same fights or choose partners who can't meet them. What they share is a willingness to understand themselves. I help by offering a space where you don't have to perform. I listen differently—tracking patterns beneath the surface. Together, we connect dots you couldn't see alone.

“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.

Throughout our lives we encounter situations that challenge us. Sometimes we just can't get passed them, we get stuck and cannot seem to find a solution. As a result we become anxious, stressed or even depressed. I work with clients in a non directive way through psychoanalysis, which allows the client look at their situation or problems, explore the potential causes and find a way of dealing with them. There is no 'one size fits all' solution to personal difficulties, everyone's experience is unique and the psychoanalytic approach allows the client find a solution that is individual to their situation.

I work with adults who are dealing with anxiety, OCD, ADHD, autism, depression, relationship difficulties, or LGBTQIA+ mental health. What brings people to me varies. Sometimes, it's something specific, like intrusive thoughts or a relationship that's struggling; sometimes, it's a more general feeling that things aren't working the way they want them to. I have firsthand experience with ADHD, OCD, and anxiety, which means I understand what these things actually feel like day to day. I work in blocks of four to six sessions with a review, so we can check that the work is going in the right direction.

Hi, I’m Therese, a Chartered Clinical Psychologist offering psychological assessment and therapy online across Ireland. I work with adults who want to understand their difficulties at a deeper level, particularly when problems feel complex, longstanding, or difficult to put into words. You may be experiencing anxiety, low mood, stress, burnout, trauma, or repeating patterns that are difficult to change. Sometimes people come to me after other attempts to cope have helped only partly. Together, we work towards a clearer understanding of what is contributing to your difficulties and what may help create meaningful change.

I work with a range of difficulties, including relationship issues, mood, anxiety, suicidality, personality difficulties, developmental trauma and psychosis.
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.

Psychosis Counsellors
What’s the most effective treatment for psychosis?
The most effective treatment for psychosis is coordinated specialty care. In this model, a team of professionals works with a patient to address all aspects of the underlying disorder. This approach incorporates individual or group therapy, employment and education support, family support and education, medication management (which often involves low doses of antipsychotics), and case management to facilitate problem-solving as needed.
When should people seek treatment for psychosis?
People should seek immediate treatment at the earliest indication of psychosis. Symptoms include delusions, hallucinations, disorganized or blocked speech, and agitated body movements. Early signs that a person may be developing a disorder that will lead to psychosis include suspiciousness of others, memory problems and distractibility, an inability to think clearly, rapid or nonsensical speech, withdrawal from friends or family, aggression toward others, and sensitivity to bright lights or noises.
What if psychosis is left untreated?
Without treatment, psychosis can have significant repercussions, including injuries, job loss, homelessness, financial or legal trouble, ruptured relationships, and suffering for the person and their family. While early treatment for psychosis often yields the best results, there is no point past which it becomes useless to seek treatment. At any point, treatment can make a difference.
How do I get someone else to seek treatment for psychosis?
It’s extremely difficult to watch a loved one suffer from hallucinations, delusions, and other elements of psychosis—sometimes exacerbated by their fears of treatment. Have a conversation with them in a quiet space and maintain a calm, supportive tone. Share your concerns about behaviors you’ve observed, suggest treatment, and explain the potential benefits. Listen carefully to their responses. The person may not be ready after one conversation, but with time, they may come around.
