In Person Counselling in Dublin 10, Dublin

Most of us are very good at bottling up how we are really feeling, this can serve us in the short term but sometimes these suppressed feelings will express themselves in more destructive ways such as explosive anger, frustration, depression, anxiety, self-harm and even physical illness. I will work with you to gently allow suppressed feelings emerge so they can be explored, understood and given the attention and kindness they deserve. I work indoors, online and outdoors in nature; where ever we decide to work I will create a comfortable, safe and held space where you can talk about and begin to heal whatever is going on for you.

I provide a space which is safe and secure. The Therapeutic place is where you will be listened to and cared for. You will be understood and supported as you go about healing your experiences of trauma and the past. It is my aim to help you cope with the challenges and enable you to respond with new found tools to deal with the difficulties and circumstances of daily life.

To be understood, accepted without judgement.

Is something on your mind? Perhaps something from your past that you've never fully dealt with? Counselling can help, allowing you the time to talk about what's going on for you in a non-judgemental and safe space. Working with a counsellor, you can find out your truth, have a better understanding of why you do and think the things you do, discover coping mechanisms and lighten your load. If that's something you would like to do with me then I would love to hear from you.

Hi, I’m Sam. I hold a BSc (Hons) in Counselling & Psychotherapy as well as a Professional Diploma in Trauma Informed Psychotherapy and a Professional Certificate in Couples Counselling. I’m a fully accredited member of the IACP. Helping to empower and resource my clients is at the heart of what I do and is facilitated by the safe space I provide for self-discovery and introspection. I place an emphasis on forming strong relationships with all of my clients through non-judgement, empathy and understanding. I draw from many theoretical models to best suit the needs of each individual client e.g. CBT and psychodynamics.

Carving out space for ourselves can be daunting - especially when life feels overwhelming. Therapy is a place where you can be heard, be quiet, be unsure, upset, confused, connected - whatever you need to be in that moment - offering relief, understanding and growth. I'm a pre-accredited psychotherapist who works with clients collaboratively to explore feelings of stress, anxiety, apathy, frustration and distress. I have broad experience including trauma, bereavement, work issues, relationship & fertility issues, and use an approach attuned to the needs of each client. Face-to-face, online and walk-&-talk sessions offered.

I work from an integrative perspective grounded in person centered therapy. I adapt the therapy to the needs of the individual while respecting their views and values. I believe that most individuals can heal, grow and find resources within in a supportive and non-judgemental environment. I will work with you in exploring issues from the past and how they are affecting you in the present. I will also help you with tools and resources to help you in the day to day. I have a special interest in working with all members of the adoption triad specifically around, loss rejection and a sense of identity.

Life can feel like a rollercoaster at times. Talking to someone can help you make sense of what is going on for you. Slowly you can start to put these negative thoughts and feelings into perspective. We will explore these thoughts and feelings. This allows you to understand why you feel the way you do and it begins the process of change. I support people through a wide range of issues including: stress, trauma, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, family issues, loss, bereavement, sexual identity, gender issues, LGBTQI, alcohol and substance abuse, compulsive behaviours, motivation, self-esteem and self-confidence.

L i f e ' s  c h a l l e n g e s can present an opportunity for growth and personal development. However, sometimes, these challenges may seem too much. Sometimes we find ourselves feeling depressed, anxious and overwhelmed. Or perhaps just stuck? Dr. McAteer can help in these situations, by providing evidenced based therapy which treats individual difficulties. These might include anxiety, depression, addiction or perhaps relational difficulties with a partner. Whatever your problem, psychotherapy with Susan offers a safe, confidential, diversity friendly, space to work through it.

I work with clients who deal with Anxiety, Stress, Loneliness, Relationship and Family Issues, Depression, Addiction, Identity Crisis, Abuse, Panic Attacks, Eating Disorders, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Phobias, Post Traumatic Stress, Low Self Esteem... For more details see liberties-psychotherapy.com. My role is in listening to you and helping you see where your problems come from and why they affect you in the ways they do, since behind a so-called symptom there is always a different, very particular story for everyone, with its elements sometimes connected in unexpected ways, from early childhood on.

Being human is not easy. It can be challenging to find something safe to rely on to when so much changes, sometimes without warning. Therapy provides a unique space to safely explore the painful parts of human experience, including difficulties with anxiety, depression or relationship issues, for example. Therapy can give the support and safety needed to explore and understand your experience, and often to reframe the beliefs, feelings and behaviours of your lived experience, so that ultimately you suffer less.

I believe the answers to our own problems are within us. You are the expert. The narrator of your story. Your experience is unique. Only you know what it is to be you. How it feels. My role is simply one of companion. It is hoped that as you journey along at your own pace you will begin to unravel and understand who you are and why you feel the way you do. This insight has the potential to make sense of your difficulties. To find the light in the dark. To see new roads to travel, better ways to live, and new eyes to see the world. To eventually have the courage to take the road meant for you. To become who you truly are.
