Bríd Mc Gowan
Highly qualified Psychologist, Psychotherapist and Counsellor providing one to one counselling and psychotherapy. Professional support and supervision is also offered. Proven ability to assist people with their mental health and anxiety issues using an intuitive, integrative, and person centered approach which is tailored to each client’s specific needs.

When to seek help:
Life presents us with many challenges and we can often become overwhelmed, feel lost and there are situations which can be so overbearing that it seems impossible to move on.
Whether it is a huge loss, overwhelming feelings of anxiety, feeling down with related mood conditions or work related stress, it is important you know that help is available where you will be understood and supported.
Early intervention is essential and my role as a psychotherapist is to listen and to enable a person to gain insight which empowers them to face and own their feelings. The goal is not to change the person but more about bringing about positive change by building awareness, compassion, respect and acceptance about who we are rather than striving to be what we are not.
