Declan McGuigan

I currently have availability for online counselling on the following days/times:

Mondays: 9am-6pm

Saturdays: 9am-12pm

Hello, my name is Declan, and I’m a qualified integrative counsellor with a passion for helping people in times of difficulty and distress.

I have worked with individuals experiencing loss, anxiety, depression, challenging relationships and social issues. I strive to create an environment where you feel truly heard and understood whilst establishing a safe and caring professional relationship built upon empathy, trust and mutual respect.

I operate in a predominantly Person-Centred way, whilst drawing from CBT and collaborative Pluralistic practices. This allows us to work in tandem, towards your goals, whilst promoting positive change, introspection and personal growth.

I am someone who has struggled with feelings of low self-esteem, and I have found that effective therapy can often be the first step towards appreciating you for you.

I fundamentally believe that we are all valuable, unique and worthy of celebration. This includes accepting and celebrating ourselves.

I currently work exclusively online via Teams and Zoom. 

My counselling contracts are open-ended, meaning there is no pre-determined number of sessions, however we will always be working towards an eventual therapeutic end. 

Reviews will be held every six sessions to assess how the therapy is going and if we feel it should continue. 

Sessions are given weekly on a dedicated day/time which we will agree upon together. 

I offer a complimentary 25 minute online session to see if working with me is the right fit for you. Get in touch today if you would like to take the next step.

This session will be less therapeutic and serve more as a getting-to-know-you session where you can ask any questions you may have about myself or the approach we would take to counselling. It is an opportunity to explore your expectations of counselling and what you hope to achieve.
