Career Coaching Dublin County

I'm currently offering both face to face* and also online counselling. If you're feeling stuck in your life, or anxious, stressed, or depressed, counselling can help. I believe that you have the resources within yourself to find answers and resolve your difficulties, but may need a bit of help on this journey.  I work in an integrative way, meaning that I will use elements from different areas of psychotherapy in order to help you develop a stronger and healthier sense of yourself. It is helpful to gain some insight into the cause of the problem, and then work together with you on finding ways forward.  I hold a BA (hons) in Counselling & Psychotherapy from ICHAS (the Irish College of Humanities & Applied Sciences) and am an accredited member of the APCP and also a registered member of the BACP. I have experience and knowledge in trauma and have trained in EMDR and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, a body-focused treatment for trauma. I am neurodivergence informed. I am also a trained couples counsellor. *I see clients primarily at the Healing House in Phibsborough but am also based at Willow Tree Clontarf (on Friday mornings)

When individuals face personal or relational challenges, engaging with a qualified counsellor or psychotherapist can provide the structured, confidential support necessary for meaningful change. The Institute for Counselling & Psychotherapy Studies & Clinical Services, based in Dublin 2, offers a professional and calm environment where individuals and couples can explore concerns, clarify goals, and develop effective coping strategies within an ethical and client-centred framework. A defining feature of the Institute is its strong emphasis on Professional CPD & Professional Diploma Courses. These programmes are designed to advance practitioner competence, strengthen clinical capability, and uphold the highest professional standards. Our Professional CPD & Professional Diploma Courses integrate contemporary theory, applied skills development, reflective practice, and competency-based assessment. Participants engage with key areas including integrative approaches, mental health assessment, trauma-informed practice, ethical decision-making, and practitioner resilience. Delivered by experienced clinicians, our Professional CPD & Professional Diploma Courses ensure academic rigour alongside practical application. By prioritising structured professional development, the Institute contributes to raising standards across the counselling and psychotherapy sector while promoting accessible, high-quality mental health services for the wider community.

I’m Carmel Farnan, a Psychotherapist and Counsellor with a double qualification in Psychotherapy and Psychology, and over 25 years of clinical experience, offering online counselling to clients across Ireland, Europe, USA and Australia. I offer a warm, confidential and professional online counselling service, supporting clients with issues such as anxiety, stress, low mood, depression, relationship difficulties and life transitions. My approach is compassionate, practical and tailored to your individual needs. As well as working with all the traditional therapeutic approaches, I am also trained in Solution Focused Brief Therapy, an evidence-based approach designed to help many clients achieve meaningful change in a relatively small number of sessions. In addition I am the founder of the Irish and British Mindfulness Academies, integrating mindfulness with cognitive therapy, where helpful. I am a Graduate Member of the British Psychological Society and an accredited member of the IAHM. To book an online counselling appointment or to enquire about availability, please get in touch.
