Bereavement Counselling Dublin, Dublin County

It is going well, I still am in early days but counsellor is very good and professional.

I was treated by Marcello from Aug/2013 to Jan/2016: 1.5 years. I was diagnosed Dysthymia and Cyclothymia with bipolar mood. Marcello treated me with cognitive behavioral therapy. I had never thought I would have been able to live ever in a society and I had never thought I would stop going to my therapist. Today I celebrate my first year from my last time at Marcello's: I can say loudly I am able to live on my own, to observe myself, to be aware of what's around me, of the traps of my minds. I can see I am free now, and it took time! It took 2.5 years, but I made it. Today I went back to Marcello's just to say Thank You and to tell him about my current life. For the first time ever I felt being a peer. Thank you, Marcello!

I went to Renata for quite a while as I really struggled to make a change and to see things differently. I was gradually suffering from anxiety and depression that literally got completely out of hand due to life situations and I could no longer see clearly. It was time to do something and thank goodness I found Renata. She really is amazing, inspirational, and really changed my life with Cognitive behavioural therapy. I have come so far to the point my mindset is completely different and on how I view things in general. I've changed a lot of things in my life positively due to Renata.

I initially went to Petra to after a particularly bad depressive episode- she helped me recognise and prevent the behaviours and thoughts that aggravated these emotions. From there, we tackled some particularly debilitating social anxiety, where Petra helped me regain control of what I would and wouldn't allow myself to do. Looking back on where I was in this regard, from being unable to leave the house some days, to now feeling comfortable travelling on my own and approaching strangers in public, I feel totally indebted to Petra. On top of that, she was able to help me come to terms with a Body Dysmorphia Disorder. This all took place over the course of 3 years, and while there was obviously certain setbacks, I always felt complete trust in Petra and her advice. I first worked with Petra prior to setting up her own practice, in a larger practice on a recommendation from my university. As someone who has always struggled to display emotion, Petra obviously displayed something that allowed me to open up as I was immediately emotional from our first session. From there, I always knew she had my best interests at heart and I never considered going elsewhere for help.

The treatment went really well and the price was as quoted.

I made an appointment with Lisa for anger issues and feeling stressed at work. It was beginning to have a real impact on my life and particularly my relationships. I didn't like who I was becoming. I would definitely recommend Lisa to a friend and I found her price at €50 a session to be very reasonable...the best investment in myself! It wasn't easy for me to admit I needed help but I am very glad that I did and even more pleased that it was Lisa that I choose. She really helped me gain some insight, gave me very practical tips on managing my anger and I felt I could trust her.

I attended for Counselling support around long-term anxiety & depression. I attended Ahead of Health based on an excellent recommendation from a colleague. I found Theresa to be highly personable, incredibly empathetic towards me and my struggle with depression & anxiety. I gained invaluable insight into the triggers for my anxiety and learnt excellent strategies for off-setting episodes. I feel attending this clinic has given me the freedom to live a life free from worry and isolation, and given me the tools to manage my anxiety going forward. I would highly recommend this therapist.
