Trauma and PTSD Therapists in Dublin, Ireland

Both childhood trauma and that which comes from a recent shock can be immensely hard to live with. The good news is that you don't have to delve into old wounds or relive past events. Trauma is held in the body and it is through the body that it can be released. Sudeva is experienced in trauma work, he is a Certified Practitioner in Somatic Experiencing (Peter Levine's work) and has further trained in NARM, Attachment Theory and IFS.

Everyone has trauma. It's part of being alive. And some trauma events can be particularly intense and leave us feeling unsafe in the world. The environment we grew up in, if particularly abusive and dysfunctional, can also be traumatic and cause us to feel unsafe in the world. Trauma shows up in our nervous system responses to people and situations, like being excessively wary and on high alert. We work to regulate your nervous system, to give it safe resting places and experiences of relaxation. We also work with the underlying trauma itself in a very slow, resourcing way.

Traumatic events can be very frightening and colour our perceptions of our current lives. They can be debilitating and evoke variety of negative emotions. I am trained specifically to help people develop updated perspectives on past traumas by developing a self supporting compassionate dialogue within your mind that can help end the vicious circle of pain and suffering. Learn how developing a compassionate mind approach through CBT can help end flashbacks with PTSD. Learn different ways of thinking that PTSD will not let you consider. I can help you develop your own personal and unique emotional truth about past traumas that can give you greater control in your life.

EMDR is a NICE recommended treatment for Trauma and PTSD and I offer this wonderful therapy which has a positive impact.Using eye movements or tapping we reprocess the trauma to create less emotional charge and to create new responses to the event.Get in touch to find out more or book a free initial meeting.

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.
