Counselling Psychotherapy Cork City

Private Therapy in Cork City: A Space to Think, Talk and Breathe

In the fast pace of modern life, many of us have become experts at coping, managing and pushing through. Everything may appear “fine” on the outside, but inside, it’s a different story: sleepless nights, a sense of overwhelm, decision fatigue and feeling like you’re constantly “on.”

Whether you’re a busy professional, a business owner or someone navigating a particularly difficult chapter, there’s no need to carry it all alone.

Therapy offers a calm, confidential space where you can offload the mental load and finally exhale.

Why People Choose Therapy

The people who reach out to me are often capable, high-functioning adults who are used to managing on their own. They are not “broken” or “in crisis.” They are simply tired — mentally, emotionally and physically — from holding too much for too long.

Common reasons people contact me include:

Ongoing anxiety or overthinking that affects sleep and relationships
Emotional burnout and chronic mental exhaustion
Managing a high-pressure role with little time to reflect
A desire for a neutral, professional space to talk without judgement or unsolicited advice
Working through past experiences that continue to shape present-day life

What I Offer

I provide private psychotherapy for adults in Cork city and online. My approach is warm, grounded and practical. I work particularly well with those who need:

A trusted sounding board, not just advice, but someone who will genuinely listen
Support with stress, anxiety or emotional overwhelm
A consistent, confidential space to think clearly and make sense of things
A way to explore what’s next, personally, professionally or both

I also offer professional supervision for solicitors, barristers and legal professionals managing the emotional toll of heavy caseloads and vicarious trauma.

In-Person and Online Appointments

My therapy practice is based in Cork city centre. I also offer online sessions via Zoom for those who prefer the convenience of attending from home or work. Therapy should fit into your life, not add stress to it.

You Don’t Have to Be in Crisis to Come to Therapy

Therapy is not only for when things fall apart. It can be a powerful tool for maintaining wellbeing, building resilience and staying mentally sharp in demanding environments.

Investing in your emotional health is not a luxury. It is a necessity.

Ready to Talk?

If you’re ready for a space to talk, think and breathe, and begin to feel more like yourself again, I’d be happy to speak with you.

Sessions are private, professional and tailored to your needs.
