Counselling in Navan

I am an experienced, accredited Psychotherapist in private practice since 2011. My focus is seeing the person as unfolding at different stages along life's journey. Sometimes along the way we can be knocked sideways. Failure ,loss ,abuse, relationship issues or bad choices can leave us experiencing stress, loss ,anxiety and depression . Early intervention is essential and my role as psychotherapist is to listen and enable you to gain insight. Any issue when talked about and explored in a supportive non judgemental therapeutic relationship where you are understood and supported will bring about positive change.

I am a qualified Counsellor and Psychotherapist with a first-class honours degree. I am a pre Accredited Member of the IACP and work in accordance with the IACP code of ethics and Children First guidelines. I provide one to one counselling and psychotherapy to any individual aged 18 and over. I have extensive experience in the field of mental health. Depending on the reasons you have sought counselling, I will work with you to prioritise where the focus of our sessions will be. This may involve working through past traumas, learning new coping strategies to help relieve anxiety or stress, or goal setting for the future.

Hi, I work using a positive personal centred humanistic approach which enables the person to understand themselves more clearly and grow. I work with Anxiety, Stress, Grief, Depression and many other different issues. So don't hesitate to contact!

I am well aware that life can be a struggle when trying to deal with anxiety, depression, profound sadness, grief, relationship issues, emotional upheavals, stress, long standing hurt or deeply embedded trauma. Sometimes it’s about self exploration. I offer a warm, safe, welcoming and non judgmental space where clients can come and examine how they see themselves in their world; explore unhelpful behavioral patterns and look at how they are in relationship to others and themselves. At all times in the Counselling space, I work from my heart; from a place of compassion and love, with genuine acceptance of the client just as they are

Hi, my name is Joan McDowell, founder of Serenity Connections Counselling and Psychotherapy. I am a fully qualified Integrative psychotherapist. The core of my approach is to work with my clients in a holistic way incorporating the mind, body and spirit.

Do you feel depressed or anxious? Maybe you're stuck in your life situation? You want happiness, peace, direction... Let's work together to help you achieve your goals!!!!!!! You might be one of those people who struggles to control their drinking or carrying unbearable pain. It may also be that you have lost the meaning of life and whatever you do seems to go nowhere. You tried to deal with your issues on your own, but your attempts to gain control were not successful. You probably want to live a more fulfilling and happier life but you don't know how.

I find that many of my clients have difficulty in understanding their issues. My best source of learning has been my own life. Of course, college was needed for the academic side but there is no replacement for life experience. I have come through addiction. I used substances to overcome fears and inhibitions. I lost a wonderful marriage, a high-level job and fabulous home. I lived on the streets. I brought fear, loss and torment to friends and family. I worked my way into this area of work because I survived and am now in a position to help people because I understand what addiction, loss, panic and stress can cause

I have been Counselling couples and individuals since 2000 and clients have given feedback that they find my approach warm and friendly. I meet you where you’re at emotionally and help you to find the resources within yourself to move out of whatever “stuckness” you may be feelin.

As a Humanistic and Integrative psychotherapist of almost 20 years experience, I draw from a variety of approaches from my ‘‘therapeutic toolbox’’, including Clinical Hypnotherapy, Family Constellations, Psychosomatic Bodywork, Pre and Perinatal Psychology, Creative Expressive Arts and Trauma Recovery. The focus of my work is to empower you to gain awareness, new perspectives and see patterns and issues in a fresh light, so you may begin to experience real change and break habits, patterns, trauma and fears so that you can move forward to live a more authentic, peaceful life and move towards fulfilling your innate potential.

There are many reasons to engage in therapy. If you have found your way here, I imagine you may be struggling with some part of yourself or with someone in your life. You might be looking for help and support with problems that seem overwhelming. You may have a sense that you are not living the life you want to live and wish to step more confidently forward. Psychotherapy offers you a chance to slow down and step out of your daily life, refocus on your needs and goals, a path of self-development and learning.

Nearly everyone faces challenges and difficulties in their life at some time. But sometimes they can be overwhelming and we feel like we are helpless. Stress over a job, anxiety caused by uncertainty Have lost a loved one or something (such as a job). Have a chronic or acute medical illness. Can no longer prioritize what is most important in your life. Feel that you can no longer manage your stress. End of life thoughts. Call, text or email me. Over 20 years in practice dealing with a broad range of issues.

I offer individual counselling and psychotherapy with clients wishing to explore a wide range of issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship issues, anger issues, self-esteem, meaning in life, bereavement, personal development, childhood trauma, suicide intervention.

I began my training journey into counselling more than 25 years ago but paused it to pursue a career in the emergency services. It is here I developed my compassion for working with the most vulnerable people. I have held people as they took their first breath and those who took their last. I have been present for people experiencing their worst day and I have offered them and their loved ones comfort and support in those moments. I recognise the strength of each individual in the therapy room and respect them as the expert in their own lives. I work with a wide range of concerns from stress and anxiety to grief and bereavement.

Connection is fundamental to our wellbeing and survival. When we feel disconnected from ourselves, others and the world, it can be an isolating experience. When we struggle to express ourselves it can feel like we are pretending to be someone else. The fears and worries that can take over your mind, can be tamed and better understood. In therapy we can work as a team to help you understand yourself better, and develop your self worth. Through learning about yourself, you can also improve how you show up in relationships. Don't forget that you are your biggest and main responsibility.

As an Integrative therapist, I endeavour to adapt my approach to suit my client’s individual needs, preferences and goals for therapy. My approach is rooted in empathy, understanding and compassion for the whole person, mind, body and spirit. Clients experience an environment of safety and confidentiality, where they can explore their life experience and challenges that are distressing them with acceptance, non-judgement and respect. I use Mindfulness as a therapeutic tool.

Are you feeling gripped by anxiety, stress or depression, over thinking things, experiencing flashbacks or panic attacks or just not feeling yourself and not sure why? If so I am here to help you. I offer a friendly, safe and non judgemental space for you to talk openly and explore those things which are affecting you. I will help you to identify and understand why situations keep occurring in your life. I believe when we are truly heard and held in a safe environment we can improve our mental health as well as have a greater understanding of how to deal with future challenges. I work with adults, couples and young people.
