Counselling in Rathmines and Rathgar, Dublin

I am a fully qualified Counsellor & Psychotherapist who holds a BSc Hons Degree in Counselling and Psychotherapy and a fully accredited member of IACP, working in accordance with the code of ethics and practice of the IACP. I attend regular clinical supervision.

Established in 2016, Talk Therapy Dublin is an inclusive practice providing Counselling & Psychotherapy services (as well as information and support) for those with mental health concerns. Talking to a professional therapist provides an evidence based way to explore your mental health in a confidential safe environment.

Looking at oneself in a different way can lead to the life that we would truly desire to live. Are you feeling stuck in a cycle of negativity from anxiety, depression, grief, relationship break up. I am here to facilitate and look at ways to explore and plot a new course to experiencing relief from these symptoms and find a path to a brighter way of living. As a counselor and psychotherapist I have a deep passion to work for change in people that can make a real difference. I will work with you in a safe and confidential environment, using proven therapies to assist in a healing process, through times of difficulty or disruption

Do you ever worry that you're not good enough in some way? Or maybe say yes to avoid confrontation? Maybe you are experiencing low mood or feeling anxious? Well if any of this sounds familiar, get in touch, because I work with people that are fed up of feeling this way and want to change their negative opinion of themselves. I see myself as a warm and open-minded person who understands that we all go through challenging periods in life when things feel overwhelming. Sometimes life can be hard; complicated, confusing and painful. I am here to listen and support you.

We are all capable of solving our own problems and finding our own peace of mind. Sometimes we need to understand why we are feeling, thinking or behaving in a certain way. Counselling is a treatment where each counselling session is a safe and regular space for a person to think and talk about themselves and the world they live in. Life can throw situations our way which may seem unmanageable. My aim as a counsellor is to support each person as they gain an insight and understanding into these difficulties, while also supporting them as they make any changes needed to make themselves feel better.

People who come to therapy want to make changes in their life. At some time we will all face circumstances which challenge our resilience: illness; bereavement and mortality; depression and anxiety; trauma and violence; relationship problems; career difficulties; loss of identity; spiritual crisis. When difficult experiences leave us feeling helpless and stuck, the work of self-exploration opens new doors of possibility.

No man is an island! Yet connection with others is not always easy. I work with Adult & Adolescent clients with relationship issues, low self-esteem, social anxiety, depression, stresses of everyday living, may have suffered abuse, bereavement and loss, or had a difficult childhood where their needs were not met. Are you feeling unsettled, overwhelmed or in distress? I help the client explore within themselves to gain clarity, perspective and understanding about themselves and their lives, enabling them to move forward through the blocks in their path to embody a more positive future for themselves.

I am a fully qualified child and adolescent Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist. My background is in Educational and Developmental Psychology, I am a graduate member of the Psychological Society of Ireland (PSI) and a full member of the Irish Forum for Child and Adolescent Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy (IFCAPP) and the Irish Council for Psychotherapy (ICP). I work within the psychoanalytic psychotherapy setting with children, adolescents, young adults and their parents or carers.

As a therapist, I believe in the transformative power of human connections on our overall well-being. I recognise that our relationships with others serve as the cornerstone of our physical and mental health. However, I also acknowledge that many of us struggle to find genuine ease and trust in these connections due to various life experiences, and perhaps have never been able to be fully at ease with other human beings. In my practice, I see my role as that of a facilitator, providing a safe and supportive space for clients to explore their obstacles and work towards overcoming them.

“”””I am not currently accepting new clients”””” I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy. My services include general counseling, and I specialize in a variety of issues, including: relationship difficulties, stress, anxiety, panic attacks, depression, domestic abuse, bereavement, addiction, self-harm, phobias including OCD.

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.

Please, contact me through my website: www.violetpsychology.com, not PychologyToday - From the start of our sessions, my main goal is to really get what you're going through and see things from your point of view. I provide a safe place for you to externally process your feelings, support you in recognizing patterns, and in making positive changes in your life. Together, we can figure out how to make sense of it all, overcome challenges, and build up your strength.

Hi everyone, I'm a psychotherapist working online. My approach is integrative, meaning I use different therapy methods, such as EMDR, that will help with your recovery process. My speciality is working with trauma, specifically sexual trauma and childhood trauma. When we are faced with challenges in our life the opportunity to discuss with someone impartial who will not judge you, can be a positive step. My experience enables me to support you to make sense of your thoughts, feelings and behaviours. Together we can identify what might be stopping you from reaching your full potential.

I am an Adult Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist in clinical practice for over 14 years. I have worked in a variety of clinical settings within the mental health sector including hospitals and day- services. My broad range of experience includes working with psychiatric diagnoses such as psychosis and borderline personalities and with those affected by anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, relationship difficulties, bereavement and traumatic and post traumatic disorders. I provide a safe and non judgemental space for you to speak about any concern and anxiety you may have yourself or within relationship at work or at home.

Therapy is an opportunity to begin to talk about what you are experiencing at the moment. The process of saying what is happening for you, and being met in that by somebody who wishes to better understand you, offers you the potential to begin to see your situation more clearly, increase your awareness and gain insight. I work in an integrative way bringing in the appropriate tools and techniques that our individual work together demands in the moment. My main way of working is psychodynamic. My aim is to help you to see yourself better.

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.

I specialise in experiences and topics such as anxiety, relationships, sexuality, LGBTQI+, and HSP highly sensitive people. I offer this in both English and Dutch and I offer psychological therapy (psychotherapy) and consultation services primarily for adult individuals, romantic couples and other relationships (e.g. business owners, co-workers, family members, friends etc.).

I provide a safe, calm and confidential space to work collaboratively with clients to help you: Change unhelpful thinking patterns or self-beliefs. Reduce physical stress with Mindfulness skills. Create greater emotional understanding. Enable clients to work through issues and problems to gain more personal fulfilment in life and relationships.

I'm a work and business psychologist specialising in the behaviour and performance of people and organisations at work. I work with individuals and teams on leadership, culture, well-being, motivation, and performance with the ultimate aim of helping people find clarity and direction in daily work. I also provide talks and workshops on these topics. My work is vocational, and I believe everyone can find meaningful and fulfilling work, but sometimes, we need help clarifying how that looks. If you are stressed and at odds with your business or work, or you are ambitious and goal-oriented, I may be able to assist you.
