Patricia Mcgovern

Hours are flexible.

I am an Integrated Accredited and Registered Counsellor/Psychotherapist and have been working in this field for 20 years now. My background begins in Canada as a child and youth worker and when moving to Ireland, trained and qualified as a therapist. I work with adults 1:1, young people aged 11+ and couples. 

As well as private work, I have been working in secondary schools, counselling adolescents for many years along with doing sessional work with other local organisations providing therapy for adults and couples. 

I practice as an integrative therapist, using person centredness. Which means, I work with what the priority is for you, and take your lead. 

I believe counselling can help in many ways, either as an individual or as a couple. It is important and helpful for each of us to feel heard and understood, while identifying any helpful goals and steps to achieve these. 

This process can lead to healthy changes in ourselves and significant relationships we care about.

Counselling sessions are weekly to begin, as this is the most beneficial structure. Each session is 50 mins for an individual and 60 mins for couples. 

Payment is paid prior to the start of each session. Individual work is £45 and couples sessions are £60. I do offer concessions for students who wish to avail of longer personal therapy.

The initial session will be an assessment to work through some information, and if appropriate, we can continue after this with  weekly sessions. Some individuals/couples may benefit from minimal sessions, others more. We can talk about this in the initial assessment. 

Once I am contacted, and you wish to book an initial assessment, I will send you out some further information.
