About Us

‘otherness. noun. the quality or fact of being different’

At the heart of our ethos is the conviction that no two people are the same.

This means no clipboards. No questionnaires. No categorisation. No plotting you on a graph. No generic solutions.

As psychoanalysts we listen carefully to the otherness in you. What makes you, you.

That’s where work can be done.

FAQ

How do I know if therapy is right for me

People often come to therapy not because something dramatic has happened, but because something doesn’t feel right.

You don’t need to know exactly what’s wrong to begin, and you don’t need to be in crisis either.

Therapy offers a space to think and speak freely, and to understand what may be shaping your experience, even when the reasons aren’t immediately clear.

How do I choose which therapist I’ll see?

You’re welcome to choose a particular therapist if you have a preference. If not, we’ll offer an appointment based on availability.

Each person is completely unique, and will combine different with other individuals. So knowing which person is the right match can can only be discovered by beginning, and not beforehand.

Please keep in mind all therapists at the clinic are trained to at least Master’s level, so each is equipped to work with pretty much anyone.

What happens in the first session?

Generally the first session is used to speak about what brings you there, to set up a framework for working together, and to answer any questions you might have.

Often, the first session gives a sense of whether this is a space you can use. You don’t need to decide everything immediately. If you continue, the work develops over time.

How often do people usually attend sessions?

Most therapists request weekly meetings. Regular sessions help create continuity and allow the work to develop over time.

How much will it cost?

For individuals, the cost of the first session is €95, and the ongoing cost can be agreed with the therapist on a case by case basis. The average tends to be €75-€90 per session, but it is always case by case.

For couples, sessions cost €125 per session.

I had the privilege of working with Ashling Whelan, MIACP, as my therapist at The Other Clinic. I can’t emphasize enough how her compassion, expertise and professionalism have positively transformed my relationship with my partner. Her guidance and insights have been instrumental in helping me navigate and improve my communication and overall connection. I highly recommend Ashling to anyone seeking skilled and compassionate therapy.

“I was recommended this clinic and was sceptical at first, much like about putting a review online, but after the level of care I received I wanted to share. I had a lot of questions like was it for me, would I be able, could I afford it etc. but after contacting them many of these were answered and I felt more at ease. I had been struggling with things for a while and when I started I didn’t quite understand the connection between what the psychotherapist said and what I was saying but it really taught me to think twice about things and why I might feel a certain way, it’s really opened my eyes. Coming to counselling and more importantly sticking it out is one of the best decisions I’ve made and I’m sincerely thankful for all their help. Thanks again!!”

I can’t sufficiently express how grateful and appreciative I am, without writing thousands upon thousands of words, for the help and support my therapist here gives me in doing the hard, frightening and sad work that needs doing in order for therapy to be truly beneficial. Almost 18 months of weekly appointments and I can peacefully say that I’ll keep going for as long as I can. Thank you so much for providing a space and the support I need to consistently learn, grow and love myself.
