LGBTQ+ Affirming Counsellors in Bray, WW

I believe that each individual that comes through the doors is exactly that - an individual. Every client has their own unique needs and make up which is key in identifying in order to help facilitate recovery and growth. Life has many ups and downs for us all and at times we need help in working through some of the ups and downs. Finding the right therapist can be a valuable asset during these times and I'm a strong believer in the importance for each client in finding the "right fit" for them in order to really be able to get what they need from the therapy.

I help people to feel calmer, think straighter, and act better. If your issue is anxiety, stress, depression, panic attacks, ptsd, or relationship problems, then I understand how stressed and exhausted you must feel. My goal is to get you feeling better from the very first session. I offer a free 20 minute phone consultation to help you decide if my approach is the right fit for you. Get in touch today.

As a Health Psychologist and Psychotherapist I offer an unique service, that specialises in supporting those with both physical and emotional issues. Covid has show the really impact any illness can have not only on our health but also on our emotion health. It demonstrate that health can’t be viewed in isolate and to feel fully healthy we most also allow our minds , thoughts and feelings to be acknowledged, understood and cared for. I have over twenty years experience in supporting roles in both psychiatric, medical and homeless services. In my Private Practice, I can support you gain control over issues that are overwhelming.

People are all just trying their best, but it is very normal to struggle with life at times. I like helping people who are feeling stuck get unstuck. I like helping people see that they have the power to make something better from their life. I used to be a homebirth midwife, and I find myself drawn to people who are in big life transitions. Or knowing that there is a change needed that maybe is not yet clear. But much happiness comes from learning to truly appreciate what is real in your life today.

My passion is working with people who want to uncover and embody their truth and develop their inner knowing. Life is full of different pressures and demands. Often, our internal life of emotions, personal challenges and hearts desires are not reflected to us as most important by the world we live in. But if we don't carve out time for ourselves and prioritise our truth and joy, it's easy to feel swept up in the tide rather than living a life that expresses the fullness of your Soul. My journey has taken me from deep psychotherapy to combining psychotherapy and spirituality as a path of truth through transformation.

I really believe in the power of therapy as a way to evoke meaningful change; whether its from ongoing struggles, self -limiting beliefs, harmful behaviours or painful cycles in relationships. My approach to therapy is from a contemporary, integrative and compassion-focused perspective. The therapeutic relationship between client and therapist can help facilitate personal growth, the healing of wounds and acceptance of self. Its my aim to help you feel safe to creatively explore options, find out what you may need, and give you support during challenging times.

"At times in our lives we can feel over-whelmed, that we can’t cope, when depression and anxiety take over. At such times we can end up feeling stuck, not knowing what to do next. Old patterns of behaviour and coping strategies, which were once effective, may now operate as a stumbling block in our lives." Hi, my name is Sinéad and since qualifying as a Psychotherapist I have undergone further training in the areas of Somatics and Emotion Focused Therapy with an emphasis on working with trauma, loss and attachment. I use an integrative approach, adopting my therapeutic style to the specific needs of the client.

Hello and welcome. Are you stressed, lost, anxious? Life brings many experiences our way, some good and some bad. The emotional impact of these experiences can be frightening or confusing. Our family have a lot of influence on us, how we behave, how we talk, and how we communicate. Loss, grief, and anxiety are challenging. Processing our emotions is an essential part of living a healthy life.

I see every person as unique, their difference as their beauty, and their inability or struggle as a potential for growth and creative adjustment. I meet clients where they are at in their life journey, through authentic relational encounters and genuine curiosity. You are welcome to visit my website: www.theworldbetweenus.com
