My name is Esther O’Neill, and I am the founder of Present Moment Counselling & Psychotherapy.
I have a First Class Honours Degree in Counselling and Psychotherapy, and a Professional Certificate in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. I am currently completing a Masters in Mindfulness Based Interventions with UCD.
Counselling and psychotherapy provides a therapeutic and nurturing space where a person is given support and understanding as they talk through and make sense of whatever difficulties they might be facing within their lives.
A wide range of therapeutic approaches exist that inform the work of counsellors and psychotherapists. Some clients find it helpful to understand what these distinct approaches and ways of working are. The following is a very brief overview of each of the main approaches that I draw on in my work.
When we are tired, we are attacked by ideas we conquered long ago
Rather than being your thoughts and emotions, be the awareness behind them.
If we climb high enough, we will reach a height from which tragedy ceases to look tragic.
