Stress Management Ireland

My partner and I attended two other couples therapists while looking to improve our relationship. After they who didn't quite meet our needs, we found Liz, who has been excellent. She was able to challenge us in a constructive manner, but with warmth. This made it easier for us to receive and act on her insights, even when they were difficult to hear. She offered the direction and structure that were missing in our prior experiences with couples therapy, allowing us to make real progress. Moreover, Liz took the time to delve into the inner workings of our relationship. Unlike the 'one size fits all' approach we encountered before, she tailored her methods to address us as two individuals in a couple. This personalized approach was crucial in helping us understand and navigate our relationship more effectively. Liz provided the structure and guidance that have been really helpful for our growth as a couple. We highly recommend her to any couple seeking a therapist who offers structure, direction, and a personalized approach to therapy.

I contacted Marcello in March 2018 because I was dealing with a strong fear of flying and I was avoiding to take aeroplanes for 1 year (during which I worked with other professionals with no success). Four months after I started to fly again, and I took 5 flights before the end of the year. We worked a lot on the connections between fear and my life so that I learned a lot about how to manage myself in many difficult situations. I believe that Marcello has great talent as a psychotherapist. I liked a lot the fact that his approach is oriented to achieving practical results and changing everyday life for the better. Highly recommended!

I was in a dark place and needed to talk to someone. Always feeling negative as if something bad was going to happen. Bernie helped me get out of that place and helped me see that it was stuff that had happened in my past which was affecting me over my life. She is kind, genuine and thought-provoking. I now feel more positive and hopeful about my life.

I received counselling from HelpLink and I couldn’t recommend them enough. The whole experience was so pleasant and the staff are so approachable. Great to know that they are always there when we need help and some self-care.

My daughter has just finished a 12-week course of play therapy with Eva and I would rate both the clinic and Eva 5 stars. The clinic is spotlessly clean, with all covid precautions in place, lots of toys and activities available in a bright well thought out environment. Eva the therapist was excellent. From start to finish she talked us through the process and was available to discuss any concerns or questions we had. My daughter made fantastic progress and she achieved all of the goals we had originally set out with the therapist at the planning meeting. I cannot speak highly enough of Eva and all of the tools she has equipped my child with.

My GP suggested that I should get CBT (cognitive behaviour therapy) for my OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder). I have to admit that I was skeptical but was willing to try anything. I found OPAL on the What Clinic site through an Internet search. I was put in contact with Ray James and he explained the concept of CBT so well that I felt re-assured. I had eight sessions in total and Ray helped me so much during these. I learnt effective coping strategies and he helped me to confront my OCD. I can now manage this and live life more fully. I have no hesitation in recommending Ray as a first class therapist.
