As an experienced professional therapist, I am qualified to employ a range of therapeutic skills as appropriate for any given situation. These include Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Psychoanalysis MBSR (Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction), Life Coaching and other Psychological Services to treat disorders such as:
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can involve persistent unwanted thoughts, urges, or fears that lead to repetitive behaviours or mental rituals. These symptoms can interfere with daily life, relationships, and overall wellbeing. At Brideswell Counselling, Psychotherapy in Kildare provides a supportive and confidential space to help individuals better understand their OCD.
Social Anxiety Disorder
Social Anxiety Disorder can make everyday interactions feel overwhelming. This can affect relationships, education, work, and overall confidence. At Brideswell Counselling, an experienced Psychologist in Kildare provides a safe and supportive environment where clients can explore the underlying causes of their social anxiety.
Phobias
Phobias involve an intense and often irrational fear of specific objects, situations, or environments. At Brideswell Counselling, an experienced Psychologist in Kildare offers a calm and supportive space to help clients understand the root of their fears and gradually work towards overcoming them.
Relationship Therapy
Relationship difficulties can arise at any stage and may involve communication breakdowns, trust issues, or ongoing conflict that affects emotional well-being. At Brideswell Counselling, professional Counselling Kildare services provide a supportive and neutral space where individuals or couples can explore these challenges.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is an evidence-based approach that helps individuals identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours that may be contributing to emotional distress. At Brideswell Counselling, Psychotherapy in Kildare is offered using CBT techniques to support clients in managing anxiety, depression, and other mental health difficulties.
A message from Margaret
Sometimes it may feel like life is simply too difficult to cope with, there may be a single issue or a combination of many factors that are causing you unhappiness. Talking about these issues can shed a light into the darkness and give you meaning which will then help you uncover a better way forward. Brideswell Psychotherapy and Counselling will work through and process those issues which are frequently too difficult or confidential to share with even your nearest and dearest friends or family.
I work with clients from all areas of Ireland including Dublin, Kildare, Wicklow, Louth, Meath, and other counties across Leinster, Munster, Connacht and Ulster both professionally and non-professionally, and I have built a solid reputation for professionalism, confidentiality and trust. I am also well noted for succeeding in difficult situations where many other therapists have failed.
Each person is assessed individually so the most appropriate therapy for that person is implemented. For further information on these therapies I provide please read the information on the following pages.
I do hope my site is helpful to you obtaining a clearer picture of what to expect when you book a counselling and psychotherapy session with Brideswell Counselling.
Kind Regards,
Margaret Kennelly

A new beginning
