Counselling for Waterford residents

Counselling gives you a confidential space to talk things through with someone outside your day-to-day life. Sessions are tailored to you and can draw on approaches such as cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and solution-focused therapy. Some people come with one clear issue; others just know something needs to change. Both are fine. Learn more about counselling at Bloom.

Hypnotherapy, explained simply

Clinical hypnotherapy uses a relaxed, focused state to help you work on patterns that are hard to shift by willpower alone, such as anxious thinking, cravings or fears. You stay aware and in control the whole time, and nothing happens that you don’t agree to. Hypnotherapy is often combined with counselling, so you have practical strategies to use between sessions as well. Everyone’s experience is different, and we’ll talk about whether it suits you before we start.

Trauma and EMDR

For trauma and distressing memories, we can use counselling, hypnotherapy or EMDR therapy, depending on what feels right for you. We go at your pace, and you never have to share more than you’re ready to.

Couples and relationship counselling

Adam has Gottman Method training and offers couples counselling for communication, conflict, trust and reconnection. Couples can also start with a Gottman Relationship Assessment, which gives a clear picture of your relationship’s strengths and challenges before counselling begins.
