Ms Audrey Curran

Licensed Professional Counselor

An experienced, competent and compassionate psychotherapist working predominantly with individual adults. I hold a BSc ( Hons ) in counselling and psychotherapy with additional training in CBT, suicide awareness and traumatic memory. Reaching out for support can be daunting and I acknowledge the strength and courage it

About Me

Reaching out for support takes real courage. As an experienced psychotherapist, I offer a compassionate, safe space for individual adults. We can gently explore your concerns and process difficult experiences, including traumatic memories. You will also gain practical coping strategies, like CBT, to build resilience. My aim is to help you find a clearer path forward, especially if navigating anxiety or past hurts.

Approach

You’ll find sessions feel steady and collaborative, held with patience and clear boundaries that help you feel safe to explore difficult memories and current worries. In Kilkenny or online, I work at a gentle pace, mixing focused reflection with practical tasks between sessions—short CBT experiments, mindfulness practices or safety planning when needed—to help widen coping options. Trauma material is approached carefully, tracking your tolerances and building skills before deeper processing. This way of working often suits adults facing anxiety, relationship strain or past abuse.
