Therapy That Meets You Where You Are
A calm, collaborative space to slow down, understand what is happening, and find a way forward.
A place to pause
Sometimes the first step is simply having somewhere to say things out loud.
About Me
Hello, I’m Stephen
I'm an integrative psychotherapist based in Ireland. My approach is warm, collaborative and grounded in the belief that people are more than the difficulties they are experiencing.
My own path into this work has been shaped by professional experience, lived experience, recovery, mental health advocacy and a deep interest in how people make sense of themselves and their lives.
I don't see therapy as fixing someone. I see it as creating a space where something different can become possible. My understanding of therapy has been shaped not only by professional training, but by life on life’s terms. I know that asking for help can involve vulnerability, uncertainty and sometimes a fear of being judged.
You don't need to tell me everything at once.
We can begin wherever you are.
Change begins with being met, not managed.
I believe therapy works best when it is collaborative. We begin with where you are, rather than where you think you should be.
My Approach
Integrative Psychotherapy
I have a flexible approach that combines humanistic insight, relational depth, and evidence informed techniques. This supports clients who want a collaborative, reflective space tailored to their specific needs.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, is a practical talking therapy that looks at how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours are connected. CBT is focused on the here and now, giving you tools you can actually use in daily life.
Humanistic, Existential and Person Centred Therapy
A warm, client led approach that prioritises authenticity, empathy, and the capacity for self healing.
Recovery Oriented Therapy
Support for people navigating addiction, early recovery, long term sobriety, or the identity and relationship changes that come with it. My work is centred on the clients own goals, values, and preferred approach.
Grief and Loss Support
Therapy that honours the full weight of loss and helps clients move through complex emotions with steadiness and compassion. The work creates space for meaning, memory, and ongoing connection, while supporting clients to live alongside loss rather than be overwhelmed by it.
Trauma Informed Care
My work is trauma-informed, meaning therapy proceeds at your pace, prioritises safety and consent, and recognises how past experiences shape present coping, relationships, and identity.
LGBTQIA+ Affirmative Therapy
A space that recognises identity, sexuality, and community experience as core parts of psychological wellbeing. I bring both professional training and lived cultural awareness to this work.
Male Affirmative Therapy
I look beyond the narrow view of masculinity to offer a space where vulnerability is treated as strength, complexity is welcomed, and change is rooted in self-respect rather than shame.
