Couples Therapy Dublin County

The additional help and support of an experienced counsellor can be very beneficial in facilitating the couple to clarify the issues of difficulty and see if these may be improved together. Counselling can help to give a good understanding of each other's family background and personal history. This can be a very important part of this process in order to help understand the dynamic that may now exist in the relationship.

I offer couple counselling session 50-55minutes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a collaborative, practical and problem oriented approach to emotional problems whereby the client and therapist work together toward understanding difficulties in terms of the relationship between thoughts, feelings, body responses and behavior.

It often puts into question our ability to trust again and experience feelings of loneliness, rejection and loss. Relationships with our children can be tense and this can result in feelings of guilt, anger and sadness. In order to understand our own relationship difficulties we first need to take the courageous step of developing a more intimate relationship with ourselves. The first and most influential experience of personal relationships was when we were children. If our relationship with our parents were difficult, or we observed lack of communication, fighting and tension between our parents this may influence our relationships as adults. If we experienced rejection, hurt and losses as a child we may be unconsciously repeating these patterns as adults or avoid intimate relationships in order to protect from anticipated rejections. It may be that you are questioning why you are always choosing the wrong person and end up hurt and seem to be unable to stop repeating this pattern. Maybe you are a person who does the rejecting, however feels lonely and desires closeness. How counselling can help Counselling can help you to explore and develop a more intimate relationship with yourself. It can help unravel what is stopping you from getting close and in this process you can begin to develop new ways of being with others

Counselling tends to associate with more short term and focused work, and Psychotherapy explores issues in greater depth and requires more commitment to longer term work. It aims to reach the underlying, often unconscious, causes of distress. Therapy is a word that covers both Counselling and Psychotherapy.

I see couples and have a lot of experience in this area.  I see both of you together provided your partner is in agreement. The first session looks at the presenting problem as each person sees it, your perspective may be very different from your partners. trying to understand each other is an important first step learning to listen and having a safe space to explore problems without them getting out of hand or just becomming the same revolving argument.  The hope is always to repair the relationship but if this is impossible the therapy can give a safe place to discuss separating.  

I specialise in the area of panic attacks and anxiety. I will see you and assess where you are in relation to panic and anxiety.  Some patients just want the skills to help them manage the awful symptoms but in my experience you need to find the underlying cause.  Its always there, hidden in the symptoms of the panic and it is like fingerprints unique to each individual. therapy is two fold one,to help you manage the symptoms and two to find the cause.  Loss almost always sits somewhere in what makes patients suffer panic and anxiety. My area of interest is in area od death anxiety. Ihave a lot of experience with relationship difficulties and eating disorders.
