Treatment for Depression Dublin 2

My name is Laura Branigan-Bayoumi and I hold an honours degree in Counselling and Psychotherapy from Dublin Business School and am a fully accredited member of the I.A.C.P.  I work from a humanistic and integrative approach, which means that I draw on various humanistic, psychodynamic and solution focused theories in order to  explore the difficulties you are facing, increase your self-awareness and  provide you with support.   As a humanistic Psychotherapist I respect  each individual's ability to make their own decisions. My work with you will not be about giving advice or deciding what is best for you. Instead, through discussion and exploration, I will work with you to help you clarify your own beliefs, values and priorities, so you can reach your own decisions on what is best for you.   We will work together in order to truly understand your thoughts, emotions and behaviours, to deepen your level of self awareness, and to identify and work on breaking unhelpful patterns in your life. We will work towards empowering you, so that you are better able to manage and overcome whatever is holding you back from reaching  your goals and aspirations.

We are a patient-first professional counselling & psychotherapy clinic. Psychoanalytically trained. Dublin based. ‘otherness. noun. the quality or fact of being different’ At the heart of our ethos is the conviction that no two people are the same. This means no clipboards. No questionnaires. No categorisation. No plotting you on a graph. No generic solutions. As psychoanalysts we listen carefully to the otherness in you. What makes you, you. That’s where work can be done.
