I work as integrative counsellor - drawing on the humanistic and psychodynamic traditions - providing you with support in exploring any difficulties you may be experiencing, increasing your self-awareness, and helping you gain a deeper understanding of yourself and your relationships with others. Whatever issue you bring, together we examine it in the context of your worldview, your values, and how you interpret the significance of your relationships and life events. This enables you to examine unresolved conflicts and symptoms that arise from past dysfunctional relationships, and begin to move beyond them.

If you are a point in your life, where you are noticing you don't feel like yourself, you are experiencing anxiety, panic attacks, social anxiety, relationship issues. We can sit together and allow time and space to explore what is happening, both mentally and physically. My person centred approach is designed to recognise that you are the expert, it is my role to walk with you in your journey.

The fact that you are actively searching for a Psychologist is the first step. Struggling alone is the difficult part. I am here for you to help you through this challenging time. I do not believe there is a single human being who does not face a significant challenge at some stage in their lives, so you are not alone. Whatever you are currently dealing with, I offer you my time, support and guidance to help you through this. I have worked with clients since 2008 in Europe, the Middle East, Asia, The Caribbean and the US and tailor my approach to suit each individual. I look forward to meeting you.

Find Balance with Safe Point Therapy. Life isn't always easy. It is often a constant roller-coaster of ups and downs - with daunting highs and deadly lows. I believe it is a ride not meant to be navigated alone and endeavor to support you on your journey. Do you feel stuck? Are your cycles of unhappiness becoming longer and more intense?  Does Stress and Anxiety have you feeling overwhelmed? Perhaps you feel trapped in your relationships? Are you finding it tough to alter self-sabotaging patterns?

My clients want to increase their strength and resilience in the face of difficult times. They want to learn how to best manage in the face of adversity, and challenge their own blocks. They can be from any walk of life or any orientation.They've reached a point where they feel that they need support and a safe non judgemental space to explore both their own selves and their lives. They may be struggling with their identity for some reason : Adoption, identity issues, bereavement & loss, they have family difficulties, and are commited to positive a change.

My expertise lies in helping you express, acknowledge and process your emotions – especially those rooted in anxiety, low self-esteem, stress, abuse or trauma – which can be confusing to articulate.

I am an integrative psychotherapist and counsellor who specializes in Person-Centred Therapy and Cognitive-Behavioural therapy in order to offer support and understanding to clients who wish to have a session in person or online through Zoom. I am a pre-accredited member of NAPCP and have graduated with an MA from Irish College of Humanities and Applied Sciences.

I come from a strong person-centred belief, prioritizing non-judgement and empathy, I work integratively, drawing from various theories and methods to suit the client's needs. Whether it be elements of CBT or engaging with creative expression, I strive to offer a mode of therapy which meets each client where they are at and facilitates them to share, heal and grow. Above all, I am committed to holding space for the client to process their experiences, whatever they may be.

I have provided psychotherapy to clients for a variety of challenges including trauma, depression, anxiety, and family dynamics. I work with those struggling to overcome a situation, past or present, that is causing them to feel stagnate or disillusioned. I help people make new choices in their thinking and behaviour and better choices to improve resilience and health. Together, we explore ways that will help gain insight that leads to making adjustments for living more authentically and having healthier relationships.

You as my client matter to me. Your well being is very essential. Therefore, the use of skills and methods in therapy would assist you to enrich your goal.On your therapy journey, you discover your abilities and your interests alongside your needs to target your wish. On this pass and way of therapy, you definitely discover your uniqueness and special individuality.

To be understood, accepted without judgement.

People seek counselling/therapy for all sorts of reasons: stress or anxiety in their home or work life; difficulties in their relationships; feeling low, sad or depressed; a bereavement or major loss; a trauma experienced; panic attacks; a sense of paralysis in making life decisions; overwhelmed by angry feelings. Or maybe just a sense that something is wrong but it's hard to put a finger on exactly what. They want something to change, and need some help to explore and understand their issues better.

Psychotherapy can be viewed as a corrective emotional experience, in which the client is facilitated to unlock their innate wisdom and ability to heal themselves through the medium of the therapeutic relationship. The Humanistic/Integrative approach I use gains strength from theory, research, and feedback from ongoing practice. With theory as a soft focus, we'll explore thoughts and emotions with a sense of curiosity, creativity, and freedom within the therapeutic relationship. This relational way of practicing psychotherapy provides the client with a safe space in order to develop and change.

Are you feeling stressed or anxious, sad or depressed ? Have you suffered loss or bereavement ? Do you want to make sense of a challenging issue and abolish your self-critic and enhance your self-esteem ? Siobhan has worked with a varied range of people and presenting issues and she focuses on creating a supportive relationship for positive and constructive therapy. Drawing from a variety of theories, Siobhan integrates them to work in a way that suits each clients needs.

As a psychologist with experience, I know how great the potential is in every person. We sometimes forget about our capabilities. For various reasons, life did not contribute to the disclosure of our inner potential and resources. But in fact, everything that people need to cope with in life exists inside them. I implement effective psychotherapy methods to instil self-understanding among patients and encourage them to adopt new attitudes and feelings towards life situations. Making changes to self-defeating behavior and coping with sadness and fear can bring life-altering results. English and Russian clients. Instagram: kris kmt

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.

I'm an accredited psychotherapist with the Irish Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (I.A.C.P).
