Are you struggling with issues related to trauma, grief, addiction, anxiety, or major life changes? Maybe, you are unsure about the future of a relationship or just feel that you are not living the life that you are meant to lead. There comes a time when we all need some extra help to cope with many of life's challenges. I can offer you that support.

You may appear to be coping well on the outside while privately feeling anxious, overwhelmed or emotionally exhausted. Perhaps you keep repeating patterns you understand but cannot seem to change, feel stuck in difficult relationships, or rely on alcohol, substances or other behaviours for relief. Underneath it all may be shame, low self-worth or a persistent feeling that you are simply “not enough.” You do not need to be in crisis or know exactly what to say. Therapy can offer you a confidential space to understand what is happening beneath the surface and begin finding a healthier way forward.

My professional background centres on providing therapeutic support to individuals navigating a broad range of issues. These include but are not limited to, the profound emotions tied to bereavement and loss, managing the complexities of relationship difficulties, and effectively coping with the effects of stress and anxiety. A particular area of specialisation and interest for me is reproductive health such as fertility concerns, the aftermath of miscarriages or stillbirths, and the emotional turbulence of termination.

I work with adolescents, adults, and couples experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, grief, and major life transitions. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space where clients can better understand themselves, develop healthier coping strategies, and build resilience. Using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), I tailor treatment to each person’s unique needs, helping them achieve meaningful and lasting change.

I strongly believe that the client is the expert. The client is the one who lives inside the self and has had the experiences. They know when something resonates with them in a therapy session. They know what they can and cannot cope with. They know the areas and issues that need to be addressed. I believe that there is a natural predisposition towards health in everyone. People just need to gain a confidence in listening to what their body, mind and emotions are telling them. I listen to what the client brings to me and their goals. This may be short-term counselling, or a more processing through psychotherapy.

You might find yourself wondering, “why do I keep feeling this way?” or “why do I react like this, even when I don’t want to?”
Hi, I’m Victoria. I work with people who feel stuck in patterns that don’t fully make sense, often in their self-worth, relationships, emotions, or the way they respond to life's challenges. You may be struggling with anxiety, low mood, people pleasing, a strong inner critic, or a sense that something hasn’t shifted, despite your efforts to move forward. Sometimes our past can continue to play out in the present until it is gently brought into awareness and processed.

Yes, talking is good and helps. But maybe therapy can be much more... I blend psychotherapy, coaching and CBT to see things differently and help in fresh new ways. Curious?

You've taken the first step by seeking help in what could be the most important journey of your life. It can be nerve-racking thinking about sitting in front of a stranger and telling them about yourself. What if they judge you? What if they don't believe you? What if it doesn't work? These are common fears, and I've had them myself when I first started therapy. When we work together, our relationship will be one built on trust, confidentiality, and without judgment.
I am also a Play Therapist with children from 4 years old. In the playroom play is the language; this helps them navigate and work through their feelings.

Therapy can feel like a big step, especially when you have been carrying a lot quietly while trying to keep everything going. You may be experiencing anxiety, overthinking, emotional overwhelm, or noticing patterns in relationships that keep repeating. Many people come to therapy wanting to better understand why they react the way they do, feel calmer in themselves, and make sense of experiences that still seem to shape them now.

I support clients who are navigating the following issues: anxiety, depression, burnout, bereavement, separation/divorce, life transitions (menopause), bullying, low self-esteem, work/ relationship issues.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
Most Counsellors and Psychotherapists listed in the directory are accredited members of the main professional associations, mainly the Irish Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (IACP) and the Irish Council for Psychotherapy (ICP). Most Psychologists are accredited members of the Psychological Society of Ireland (PSI).
Providers whose professional membership or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Given that professional memberships are not a statutory requirement in Ireland, certain qualified professionals or organisations may choose not to maintain such memberships despite possessing the necessary qualifications. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counsellor?
Counsellors, psychotherapists and psychologists can all provide counselling or talking therapy and have credentials and supervised, practical experience that enable them to do so in Ireland. Psychologists have earned a doctoral degree in psychology and many are accredited members of the Psychological Society of Ireland (PSI). Counsellors and Psychotherapists are not required to have a doctoral degree, but to belong to a professional organisation such as the IACP or ICP, they must complete a minimum of an NFQ Level 7 programme with 100 hours of clinical experience and a minimum of 450 hours of post-training clinical experience under clinical supervision.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
How much does therapy cost?
The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, a therapy session in Ireland could cost between €50 – €90 when seeing a counsellor and €75 - €120 or more when seeing a clinical psychologist. If you have private insurance, your plan may cover some if not all of your sessions. You should contact your insurance provider to determine if they provide coverage for therapy sessions and to determine what, if any, requirements they might have in order for your sessions to be covered, such as a referral from your GP or medical specialist.
What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?
Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.
If you are struggling to access therapy due to budget constraints, you could also consider public funded mental health services. The National Counselling Service (NCS) is a government-funded service that provides short to medium term counselling and psychotherapy for free to individuals who have experienced trauma or abuse. The service can be accessed by GP referral or self-referral.

Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your eircode.
Are therapy sessions confidential?
Therapists who are part of a professional organisation such as the IACP, the ICP, or PSI are bound by an ethical framework that requires them to uphold a confidentiality agreement. Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship and only under specific circumstances, such as when there is the potential or known harm to the client or others or when a child is in danger, will a therapist be obligated to break the agreement. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed during the initial consultation.
