Niamh Duffy, BA. Psych., MSc. Clinical Psych

I am a Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist, I work with a wide variety of people, including people with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties among other issues and symptoms. My psychotherapy practice is based in two locations: Dublin City Centre and Dundalk, Co. Louth.

I began my private practice over 5 years ago, having worked clinically with individuals for more than 5 years. My studies have spanned across several disciplines, including psychology, psychotherapy, and psychoanalysis, providing me with a broad and well-rounded foundation for my clinical work. As part of my training, I attended weekly case conferences at St Vincent’s University Hospital, where psychiatric and psychoanalytic perspectives on mental illness came together. This enriching experience has significantly shaped my clinical understanding of a wide range of mental health challenges.

With over a decade of academic study and continuous engagement in the field, I regularly present at conferences and remain deeply invested in the ongoing development of my psychoanalytic practice. Through these conferences it ensures I stay connected with the latest developments in psychotherapy and psychoanalysis.

This commitment ensures that my work remains adaptive, and attuned to the complexities of the mind, which informs my work in the clinic.

Qualifications & Accreditations

Along with a Bachelor of Arts (Hons) degree in Psychology, I have completed an MSc in Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy with the UCD School of Medicine and Specific Modality Training in Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy with the School of Psychotherapy at St. Vincent’s University Hospital, Dublin. I am actively engaged in the field of psychoanalysis; presenting at various conferences.

In my therapeutic work, I work within the code of ethics set out by the Association for Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy in Ireland (APPI). I am a fully accredited member of APPI, a registered member of the Irish Council for Psychotherapy (ICP), a member of the Psychological Society of Ireland and a member of the Irish School for Lacanian Psychoanalysis.
