Online Counselling & Psychotherapy Ireland
Carmel Farnan - 25 Years in Clinical Practice
“It’s good to talk” a popular advertising slogan proclaims. And it is true that many times the only way to resolve an issue that we wrestle with in our minds is to be able to talk it out.
But who should we talk to? Sometimes it is difficult to know who to confide in, as the people closest to you may be involved in the problem. Or many times well-meaning family or friends may be unable to provide impartial or unbiased advice. Indeed they may be too close to the problem to be of genuine help.
Instead, you need someone impartial and professional to speak with, someone who has the training and experience to help you discover real-life solutions for real-life problems. You also want to speak with someone who will not judge you, but who will understand what you are going through — someone who opens the doors for communication.

Telephone Counselling
Some clients may prefer telephone counselling over other forms. This can be due to problems with internet, or the issues for which you are seeking counselling, may mean that you are more at ease with telephone counselling sessions instead of online video sessions.

For these reasons we also offer telephone counselling to individuals for a wide range of issues.
Cost is €80 per session. Please note each session lasts one hour (this is longer than the traditional 50-minute therapy session).
