About me

My name is Brendan O'Shaughnessy and I am here to listen to you. I have nearly 30 years’ experience of working with couples and would be happy to help you resolve any issue in your relationship.

I am accredited member of the Irish Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and have Post Graduate Degree in Counselling from U.C.C. I am also a member of the William Glasser Institute of Ireland graduating in Reality Therapy in 1995.

I see my role as one of understanding where you are and working with you to find a way out of your current difficulties. I’m not here to judge or tell you what to do but may offer some techniques or tools that could help.
