My Approach

Each person’s journey is unique. It is important to me that I meet you where you are at now, to deeply listen to your story with empathy and compassion and to organically help you on your journey of healing, recovery and growth. My training in psychosynthesis enables me to work in different ways depending on what you need and the work we need to do. I can promise you that I will be caring and compassionate, that I will hold space for you to be with whatever you need to be with, even though you might feel scared and afraid and I will be gently challenging where needed and hold space for lightness and humour too that is also such an important part of the healing journey.

I hope that if you choose me for your therapeutic journey, that you have a sense now of how it will be to work with me. Please feel free to contact me to arrange a first meeting where you can tell me more about what you are struggling with, what you long for in life and what is getting in your way and we can then decide the next steps on your journey.

About Me

Hello and welcome to my profile! You are here because you are struggling and you are seeking help. It can be challenging to find a therapist and I want to affirm the courage it takes to take this really important step. Whether this is your first time seeking a therapist or you have experienced therapy before, I am very pleased that you are here and I hope I can help you with whatever you are going through.

My name is Sean, I am in my late fifties, have four grown up kids and live on the west coast of Ireland. I love the rawness of nature, and the simple things of life; close family, great friends and time to smell the roses. I also love motorcycling, zen meditation and kung fu and am passionate about helping men and women heal their psychological pain and suffering and reveal their deep authentic self to the world.

You are many things too, you have different aspects to who you are and you, just like me, are also much more than these different aspects too. I believe good therapy can reveal all this and help you both heal and grow into more of who you know ,deep down, your self to be.

I have worked for many years as a psychosynthesis psychotherapeutic counsellor with full accreditation with the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy, offering therapy in-person and online. During this time I have supported people from all walks of life who were lost and struggling, to embark on a journey of healing, growth and personal discovery.

There are many reasons to come to therapy:

• Maybe you feel knocked sideways by life and need a safe place to unpack what is going on for you and find hope and direction again.
• Maybe you are struggling with depression, stress or anxiety which is trapping you in a cycle of suffering and you want a way out.
• Maybe you’ve experienced physical, sexual or emotional trauma in your past that is now forcing its way to the surface and you want to finally do the necessary work to heal and step fully into your life.
• Maybe you’ve hit overwhelm and burnout and you see this as a wake up call to make important changes in life.
• Maybe you’ve hit relationship difficulties or your noticing patterns from the past that no longer serve you and you want to change the way you relate to yourself and others.

Whatever it is you bring or wherever you are in life, all of you is welcome here with me.
