Annette’s Counselling
& Psychotherapy & Supervision
South Dublin
What style of Counselling & Psychotherapy do I offer you?
I am very focused on providing you with a safe, caring, non-judgemental, confidential and excellent counselling and psychotherapy service and an appropriate professional supportive partnership with your family for those clients under 18. As an accredited Counsellor I have completed a satisfactory garda vetting process with the body for Counselling and Psychotherapy (IACP) and adhere to the ethical and professional code of practice. Please be aware that I do not provide a court of law validation service.
As each client is unique, I will consult and agree with you, how we will manage your therapy, to best meet your requirements, within a variety of counselling models. In addition to having the space to be listened to, supported, respected and understood, some clients might like their therapy to tap into their creative interests in music, art, drama, and spirituality, storytelling, or poems. For other clients, a solution focused or thinking based therapy, such as CBT, might be helpful in collaboratively working out a roadmap through issues. Children and Teenagers can expect a therapy which is supportive and creative.
There are many different therapists, and models of therapy. However, there is only one of you, and it is about finding the therapist that will best meet your requirements, and one you will feel comfortable with. I suggest that we have a preliminary meeting, so that we can establish if I will be the right therapist for you.
Where is this service provided and how much does it cost?
I work in Knocklyon in a professional private practice setting which is convenient to a number of South Dublin locations in the Knocklyon, Rathfarnham, Firhouse, Rathgar, Ranelagh, Rathmines, Terenure areas.
I also provide online therapy. Please contact me to enquire about your requirements and costs.
Supervision for Therapists who work with adults
I offer a warm, collaborative, and reflective supervision space for counsellors, psychotherapists, and trainees who work with the Adult and over 18 client population. Please note that I do not provide supervision for under 18 client work. Working from a person-centred and integrative perspective, I invite openness and curiosity as we explore your client work, the therapeutic relationship, your own experience, and the wider context that shapes your practice.
Together, we will celebrate strengths, thoughtfully explore challenges, support ethical and effective practice, develop your confidence and skills, and attend to your wellbeing as a practitioner. My aim is for you to leave supervision feeling supported, empowered, and resourced to provide competent, safe, ethical, and compassionate care for your clients.
