Featured by Best in Ireland Among Dublin’s Practising Psychotherapists – Now Welcoming Enquiries in Dublin and Dundalk, Co. Louth

To have my practice included by Best in Ireland among practising psychotherapists in Dublin offers a meaningful reflection — a reminder that this kind of distinctive listening continues to have its place. Thank you to Best in Ireland for including my practice in their listing of Dublin psychotherapists.

More importantly, it signals that there remains space in the wider conversation for the kind of distinctive listening that psychoanalytic psychotherapy offers. Being part of this broader dialogue about psychotherapy across Dublin and beyond is a gentle encouragement: that psychoanalysis and psychoanalytic psychotherapy, with its commitment to working with the deeper layers of the mind over time, holds a unique and enduring place in working with mental health. That the work done quietly, over time has value and a place of its own.

In addition to my ongoing practice in Dublin, I also work with people in Dundalk, County Louth, and currently have availability in both locations for adults seeking individual psychotherapy. I work with people experiencing a range of difficulties including anxiety, depression, relationship challenges & sexuality, and phobias.

Sometimes the idea of beginning therapy stirs something that’s not yet fully formed — a quiet sense that something wants attention, or that a particular way of being in the world no longer works. Psychoanalytic psychotherapy can offer a place where that can be brought, spoken about, perhaps even heard in a new way.

This work isn’t about “digging up” the past in a forced or overwhelming way. My approach is rooted in respect for each person’s pace and readiness. Rather than trying to uncover everything at once, it’s about listening for what emerges naturally — through repeated phrases, hesitations, or slips of the tongue — moments that often hold meaning without needing to be pushed. In this way, long-standing patterns begin to loosen, and space is created for genuine, lasting change.

If you’ve been thinking about starting therapy you’re welcome to get in touch. I look forward to hearing from you. https://www.niamhduffypsychoanalyticpsychotherapy.com/contact
