Hello, my name is Ciara, Psychotherapist, Art Therapist, owner of Unfurl Art Therapy. I'm fully accredited with IACP and hold an MSc in Creative Arts Psychotherapy and BA (Hons) in Integrative Counselling and Art Therapy. But more important than the qualifications - I have lived through some dark and difficult 'stuff' and come out the other side! And now I work with clients to shine some light as they go through their own dark, difficult and chaotic experiences. We can use art or we can just talk. And believe it or not, we'll have a laugh too! Either way, I believe you will come through whatever is difficult for you right now.

My ideal clients come to therapy feeling lost, overwhelmed, burnt out, and unsure of who they really are. They’ve spent years adapting to meet everyone else’s needs, often neglecting their own, and find themselves repeating painful patterns that create chaos and anxiety. They want to understand why this keeps happening. More than anything, they long to feel heard, seen, grounded, and calmer within themselves, and to build a stronger, more secure sense of identity.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck in patterns that are difficult to understand, or finding yourself disconnected from who you are? Perhaps you are struggling in relationships, navigating a life transition, or coping with loss. I offer a warm, safe, and non-judgemental space where you can explore what is happening for you at your own pace. I believe that a trusting therapeutic relationship is central to meaningful change, and together we can begin to understand how your early relationships, the roles you adopted to cope, feel safe, or belong, and significant life experiences may still be influencing how you see yourself and relate

Beginning therapy can be overwhelming. You do not need to arrive knowing exactly what to say or where to start. We'll begin with what feels most important to you and work at a pace that feels manageable. So whether you're recovering from a painful experience, adjusting to loss, or navigating a relationship where you feel misunderstood, diminished or disconnected from yourself-you don't have to work through it alone.

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.

Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, self-doubt, or old patterns keep showing up, even when everything seems “fine” on the outside. You may notice tension in your body, feel restless, or repeat familiar patterns in relationships. I’ve been there myself, struggling with anxiety and self-doubt. Many people want a gentler, steadier experience of themselves — a chance to slow down, feel calmer in their body, and reconnect with their own strength and resilience.

What therapy types help with codependency problems?
Both couples and family therapy and cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT) can help with the relationship difficulties referred to as codependency. Such problems typically include inappropriate feelings of responsibility for a loved one’s destructive behavior, irrational patterns of thinking about such behavior, and family interaction patterns in which the needs of one troubled member override the needs of others in a household.
What happens in therapy for codependency?
Spouses and family members learn and practice how to interact and support each other in a healthy way without sacrificing their own needs or well-being. They learn the limits of their responsibility for their loved ones and correct faulty patterns of thinking and feeling that underlie codependent behavior. Individuals may be encouraged to nurture an array of social relationships and to cultivate their own talents and interests so that they develop a healthy sense of self outside the family.
How does therapy help a person or couple overcome codependency?
Therapy helps people establish healthy ways of being in a relationship. Spouses and family members learn how to nurture and support one another without sacrificing their own needs or allowing the needs of one person to dominate the dynamic. Individuals learn how to say no and set boundaries, and how to maintain their own identity and self-esteem. Therapy helps people understand that they are not responsible for the feelings and actions of others. It also helps individuals deal with the turbulence that can come from living with a person suffering from such conditions as substance abuse and mental illness.
What is the goal of therapy for codependency?
One goal of therapy for codependency is to alleviate feelings of responsibility for and correct irrational patterns of thinking about loved ones whose behavioral problems override the needs of others in a household. Therapy helps people establish healthy boundaries of behavior and speak up for their own needs in a relationship. In addition, people learn how to maintain a healthy relationship, one in which both parties give and receive equally and are able to retain their own identity.
