Welcome to Next Step Therapy, an experienced and friendly therapy practice in the heart of Dublin. Our clinical services are: counselling and psychotherapy, addiction assessment and treatment, EMDR for PTSD and complex trauma. I see my therapy room as a sacred space where people can explore things they usually don’t talk about. I approach therapy with an attentive reverence and an attitude of kindness and compassion. The process of therapy is to offer a safe place to explore and name and then change, or accept, these thoughts, attitudes, feelings, moods or behaviours and to experience someone who listens and supports.

My work as a psychoanalytic psychotherapist is primarily focused on speech and the singularity of each person. I offer a safe and non-judgmental space for you to explore any questions you might have and to simply speak about whatever comes to mind as a way of alleviating your suffering. I work within the code of ethics set out by the Association of Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy in Ireland (APPI) and I hold an MSc in Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy from the UCD School of Medicine.

Often what brings people to therapy are anxiety, depression, relationship or family issues, or self-harming behaviours. You may feel overwhelmed, lost, or stuck. These difficulties tend to reflect deeper patterns of feeling, thinking and relating that began as ways of adapting to our unique life circumstances and relationships. As these patterns develop outside of our conscious awareness, they influence our day-to-day life without us fully knowing why and how. My approach to therapy is based on the assumption that becoming conscious of the why and how affords you the freedom to live a more fulfilling, satisfying and meaningful life.

I offer a supportive, non judgemental space for whatever is holding you back from living life to the full. Expressing what is on your mind can be the first step towards feeling better. Therapy can involve finding ways to manage life's current challenges whilst also exploring patterns rooted in the past that can keep us stuck. You may need support to recover from loss or trauma, help with an issue, behaviour, or relationship that is causing distress. Perhaps you would simply like space for self-exploration and personal growth. Listening carefully to the unique needs of each individual, I tailor sessions accordingly.

Psychotherapy for reflective adults navigating stress, transitions, and questions of meaning... Life can sometimes feel demanding or unsettled, even when things appear to be functioning well on the outside. You may be managing work, responsibilities, and relationships while feeling tense, depleted, disconnected, or quietly out of balance. You might be carrying past experiences and patterns that are difficult to make sense of on your own. You may have a sense that something needs attention, even if it is hard to name. Therapy can offer a steady space to slow down and listen more closely to what is happening beneath the surface.

My approach is collaborative, person-centred and integrates various tools to adapt to your needs. My systemic perspective recognises that challenges often arise within specific contexts and are shaped by relationships, environments, and interactions. By addressing not only the symptoms but also the underlying dynamics, I can help you foster resilience, gain deeper self understanding, and create meaningful change in your personal and relational systems. Psychoeducation is an integral part of my work, empowering clients with knowledge and strategies to navigate their experiences with confidence and clarity.

The way I work is guided by the values of curiosity, creativity, and compassion. My aim is to offer you a freeing, non-judgemental environment where you can really be yourself; a safe space where you are encouraged to explore, question and grow in your own time; where every experience, feeling and part of you is welcome, particularly those ones that have been out in cold. At the start, the process can be like a ball of yarn, with many different threads tangled together. We will collaborate to unravel these threads, weaving them into something that makes more sense and is hopefully more manageable.

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.

Sandra strives to create a therapeutic environment grounded in empathy while clients embark on their journey of self-exploration and personal growth. Her approach to psychotherapy is rooted in the integration of person-centred and psychoanalytic approaches. She is mindful that each client is unique and tailors her therapeutic approach accordingly by incorporating, for example, CBT, Schema therapy and somatic techniques. So often with symptoms of anxiety and depression, vagus nerve dysregulation is an unseen enemy and Sandra uses the principles of polyvagal theory to help clients become more grounded and centred in the body.
