Hoarding Therapists in Dublin, Ireland

I work with adults affected by hoarding and difficulties with accumulation, including those who feel overwhelmed by possessions or by the impact this has on relationships, living space, and daily life. Hoarding is often connected to long-standing emotional patterns, attachment, loss, and attempts to manage uncertainty or distress. My work draws on Integrative Art Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), offering ways to understand the meanings and protective functions that possessions may hold. Rather than focusing on removal or change as a starting point, the work centres on developing clarity about what is being held onto and why. Sessions may involve conversation, creative exploration, or a combination of both, depending on what feels most useful.

Dublin has transformed rapidly from a relatively insular city into a major European technology hub — home to the European headquarters of Google, Meta, and many other multinationals — generating significant demand for therapists experienced with burnout, imposter syndrome, and the psychological cost of high-performance corporate environments. The city's severe housing crisis is a defining source of anxiety for many residents, particularly younger people who grew up in Dublin but struggle to remain there affordably. Ireland's historically complex relationship with institutional religion means many clients seek therapists who can hold nuanced conversations about religious trauma, inherited values, and personal identity. The national public health service (HSE) provides limited psychotherapy access, and most Dublin therapy takes place through private practice or employer assistance programs.
