Well done for taking this step to improve your emotional health and increase your quality of life. Talking with a trusted professional is an important way to gain support, find insight and develop ways to move forward from a difficult place. I am caring, open to all of life's difficulties and hope to build a trusting and compassionate relationship with you. I do not believe that problems can be solved by diagnosing and labelling people. Instead I value the powerful talking relationship and seek to empower people through our relationship to make changes for themselves. We often develop 'blindspots' in our own lives that prevent us from seeing how our own behaviour patterns or attitudes might be somehow contributing to the problem. This is where a trusted professional can help you to gain some much needed perspective and offer a way out of your dilemma or difficult feelings.  My therapeutic approach is existential, which means that I am interested in the ways that a particular difficulty can make sense in the context of your whole attitude and approach to life. I am interested in exploring and helping you to understand the wider issues that might be influencing your perspective on a situation. Together we can explore the issue in a deep and meaningful way so that you can truly make changes in your life and break old patterns and habits that might be holding you back.   

Hello there, I'm Graham, and I'm thrilled to be a therapist within the warm community of 7 Cups. Thank you for taking the time to explore my profile. I truly understand the challenges of reaching out for help. Recognizing the need for assistance can be difficult, and finding the right therapist can seem overwhelming. That's why I wholeheartedly encourage you to take all the time you need to find a therapist who resonates with you—someone you feel comfortable, compatible, and confident with. As therapists, we have all embarked on similar training, equipping us with a deep understanding of popular concepts and a repertoire of effective techniques to support your therapeutic journey. However, true healing goes beyond credentials. It hinges on the connection we establish. So, why not take that first step and say hello? Let's break the ice and engage in a conversation. Share with me what's been happening in your life and what challenges you'd like assistance with. Together, we can forge a meaningful connection, building trust and compatibility that are essential for your growth and well-being. In life, we all encounter challenging times that can take a toll on our mental health. While some difficulties naturally ease and allow us to move forward, others persist, demanding our attention. Ignoring them often leads to unhealthy behaviors and dysfunction, which can linger for days, weeks, months, or even years. You might hear the echoes of these challenges from friends, family, or even within yourself. However, it's when the negative impact becomes too overwhelming that we finally say, "Enough is enough!" If you've reached your "enough is enough" moment, your healing journey is about to begin, and I sincerely hope to join you on that path. For 15 years, I have been assisting individuals with emotional and behavioral issues. My therapeutic journey started as a Past Life Regression Therapist in Ireland, and I later expanded my horizons by formalizing my studies at the Institute of Clinical Hypnotherapy and Psychotherapy, where I achieved an Advanced Diploma. Throughout the years, I've embraced professional development by pursuing various accredited and unaccredited courses, trainings, and talks, both out of curiosity and personal interest. As a result, I have accumulated a wealth of tools, tips, and techniques, along with certifications in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Mindfulness, Mental Health First Aid, Pain Management, Domestic Violence Counseling, Motivational Interviewing, and more. I've even authored a couple of journals—resources initially developed for my own benefit, but found to be valuable for my clients too. You can find them on Amazon: "100 Days of Getting Stuff Done" and "The Wiser Journal." I would love to hear your thoughts and feelings about them. Recently, I have spent two and a half years coaching individuals facing long-term mental and physical health conditions, helping them effectively manage their well-being and enhance their quality of life. Whether you simply want to chat and offload your thoughts, seek guidance during a difficult time, gain clarity and coping skills, or embark on a transformative process of change, you'll find me genuinely interested, compassionate, and sincere. I bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to guide you along the right path. I'm here to listen with acceptance and without judgment. I eagerly anticipate our conversation, where I can better understand how I can assist you in the best possible way. Best wishes, Graham
