My Approach

Life can get on top of us at times where we can feel overwhelmed, unable to cope or just stuck without a perceived way forward. I offer a safe and confidential space where troubling issues can be spoken about freely and without judgement. Having the freedom to discuss concerning issues can help in the processing of difficult emotions and experiences which can allow us to heal, regain a sense of ourselves and move forward in life with a renewed vigour.

At the heart of therapeutic work is the relationship between myself and my client. Research has shown that the single biggest factor contributing to successful therapeutic outcomes is the therapeutic relationship, so this is a principal focus for me from the outset of our work together. This is supported by my training in the three main forms of psychotherapy: humanistic (principally Gestalt therapy), psychodynamic therapy and cognitive behavioural therapy.

I offer a free 20-minute phone consultation to answer any questions you may have and to initially explore the types of concerns that are bothering you. Please get in touch if you would like to arrange a convenient time for us to connect.

About Me

Hello, I'm Ciaran and I'm a UKCP registered integrative psychotherapist. I am also at the very final stages of training as a counselling psychologist. I've been in practice for 8 years and work with a range of issues, not all of which are listed below, so feel free to get in touch to see how I may be of help to you. I work both online and face to face with practice rooms in Oxford Circus, Shoreditch and Wimbledon.

My doctoral research was in the area of assisted dying. This is an important topic which can generate many strong emotions for those who are terminally ill and their relatives and loved ones, particularly with the introduction of the assisted dying bill in both the English and Scottish parliaments. Please get in touch if you feel you have been impacted by this topic and you would like to work through your experiences in more depth.
