Loss or Grief Therapists in Dublin, Ireland

Grief and Loss can bring up so many responses. Among them are Anger, Denial, Sadness, Numbness, Confusion, Anxiety and Panic. Everyone responds in their own unique way. There are often many practical issues to be dealt with, while still caught up in the initial shock. My intention is to help you find practical support and emotional nourishment, as you find your way through whatever is coming up for you.

Loss is universal and affects us all. Learn to distinguish negative healthy emotions from negative unhealthy emotions. Learn to grow your life around the loss and renew your bond with the loved person to move from sorrow to celebrating the persons legacy.

Together, with specific techniques, we are strong and capable of dealing with loss and grief.

A sense of loss or grief may arise in our life for various reasons, such as losing a loved one, or feeling a sense of loss about what we have not experienced or had the opportunity to experience in life. We will work together to create a safe space to process grief with kindness and compassion.

I work with adults experiencing loss and grief in its many forms, including bereavement, the end of relationships, changes in health, identity, or life circumstances. Grief is not linear and often involves conflicting emotions, uncertainty, and shifts in how people understand themselves and the world around them. My work draws on Integrative Art Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), offering ways to explore grief without imposing timelines or expectations. Rather than trying to resolve or move through grief, the focus is on understanding how loss is being held and lived with. 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 programmes.
