Psychotherapists Dublin West

I stumbled across Danny by chance and was so grateful to have done so. When I first went to see him I was in the midst of a very traumatic life-changing experience and quite frankly I was lost. Danny's patience and his empathic nature really put me at ease and before long, I was opening up about other issues. I hoped that by the end of my therapy, I'd merely be able to learn to live with the issue I presented with initially. However, this process turned into a total overhaul of my life for the better and a feeling of laying to rest a lot of problems which had festered for years. I felt I could trust Danny and as a result, I felt completely comfortable talking about some shocking past experiences with him - Danny never flinched. Instead, he guided me through at my own pace without any expectation of me. This experience changed my life and I honestly don't know how I'd have gotten through what I did without Danny's support. I'd highly recommend Danny to anyone seeking counselling in the Clondalkin area, not alone for his expertise but also for his admirable humility and down to earth presence. I felt instantly comfortable around Danny. He's certainly very talented in his field. The location is great (central Clondalkin), with ample free parking outside. What I liked the most about the location was that being in a block amongst other shops and businesses, it gave added discretion as to the purpose of your visit. The therapy room is comfortable and airy.

It’s so hard accepting that you need help and making the first step. I can safely say, it was easily the best decision I’ve made in a very long time. John has literally pulled me back from the edge and is making me look forward to living again and the future. My mindset now is starting to change. Instead of ‘this is my life for good’ I think ‘this is my life for now’. I’m learning that things will change and it’s not just a saying. Do the work as best you can. It really is one baby step at a time and John is with you through it all. He has saved my life. His thirst for life rubs off very quickly. I am so happy I chose Building Bridges. Thank you for my mending heart!

I started going to Brendan Markey in May 2018 for counselling at the Somer Clinic Clondalkin, I suffered horrific injuries in January 2018 and after Follow-ups with my Consultant who treated me observed me that I need Counselling as he was a concern for my well being. My GP recommend Somer clinic. Brendan was positive in getting me back me through to overcome the trauma and I was going through a tough period in 2018 and part of 2019 with recovery from the injuries along with worries of the future hold at the end of the recovery. He is a great listener and he has given back my confidence and persuaded me to be positive, open-minded, explored new ways to a new chapter and well being. He makes me relaxed and the conservation flow, He listened to my issues, and how I’m feeling with difficult with getting my independence back and he reassured me that we get there as part of wellbeing, giving me the morale boost. We sometimes have a laugh to make it a positive session. Take this opportunity to thank Brendan for his contribution in helping me in getting me back on my feet with his advice, opinion and enjoyed going to the sessions for I will see him again soon.
