Self Esteem Counselling in Greystones

In my practice I am on a mission to help adults who are experiencing brief or more ongoing periods of emotional, relational and psychological challenges. Anxiety, stress, OCD and low mood are the primary concerns I see in my practice.

Meet Catherine - Catherine holds an MSc in Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy from University College Dublin (UCD) and St Vincents University Hospital, and continues her studies. She works with individuals aged 14 and above, helping them manage a wide range of mental health challenges, including anxiety, depression, trauma, loneliness and isolation. Catherine is a Bodywhys volunteer. What I Offer - As a therapist, I believe that working together over time is a crucial step towards better mental health. I provide a supportive, confidential space where you can talk openly about your struggles and aspirations.

It's normal to struggle from time to time, be it from the past, the present, or what happens next. I offer 1-1 psychotherapy and coaching, exploring issues such as depression, anxiety, stress, resilience, trauma, workplace performance, sexuality, sexual abuse, identity, and finding meaning. Alongside therapy, I offer training in resilience, productivity, meaning, stress, and leadership development. I also offer sessions outdoors in parks in Dublin.

In my practice, I work in a way that is guided by the person who comes into the room and their presenting needs. It is a confidential, non-judgmental and safe space for you to explore your life experiences and unresolved feelings more deeply. The approach I use is called humanistic and integrative which means I draw on humanistic, psychodynamic and other relevant theories in our work together. While this all sounds very fancy, the essence of what this means to me is that we will work together in whatever way suits you as a client, in the hope that you will begin to deepen your awareness of the unconscious parts of yourself.

I am a qualified Multilingual ( Italian, Romanian, English) psychotherapist, and a pre-accredited member of Irish Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (IACP) with a completed BA (Honours) degree in Counselling and Psychotherapy from Dublin Business School (DBS). My training includes a number of different approaches: Person-Centred Approach, Psychoanalysis, Existentialism, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Body Psychotherapy, Integrative & Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, Family & Systemic Therapy, Gestalt Therapy, Psychopathology, Addictions, and Group Psychotherapy.
