About us

We are a patient-first professional counselling & psychotherapy clinic.

 

Psychoanalytically Informed. Dublin Based.

An Other way of working. An Other way of living.

Our clinic ethos is rooted in Lacanian psychoanalysis, which places priority on what makes each person unique. By attending to the otherness of symptoms, we open the possibility of moving beyond the root causes of psychological suffering.

We don’t believe in quick-fix therapy that risks leaving people stuck in repetitive loops. Instead, we work towards lasting change.

To find an Other way.

One-by-One Treatment

“Who is this other who speaks in the subject, of whom the subject is neither the master nor the counterpart, who is the other who speaks in him? Everything is here.”

~ Jacques Lacan, Seminar 3

When I began with psychoanalysis it started with many questions about myself and others.

What leads us to suffer and hurt ourselves in tired old ways? What is this part of us that seems to have a mind of its own? And most importantly, is there anything we can do about it?

These questions are exactly why the clinic is here.
