Mr Declan Fitzpatrick

Psychotherapist

verified by TherapyRoute

An experienced counsellor and psychotherapist. I have extensive experience in working with addiction issues, depression, anxiety and relationship issues. I use C.B.T. Psychodynamic Psychotherapy and Existential Psychotherapy in my work.

About Me

I understand that facing challenges like depression, anxiety, or relationship difficulties can feel overwhelming. I support individuals as they navigate these complex emotions and experiences. Through our collaborative work, drawing on approaches like Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, we can explore underlying patterns and find new ways forward. My aim is to help you gain clarity and develop practical tools for lasting change. If you are seeking a supportive space to address long-standing issues, I am here to help.

Approach

From that foundation of steady support, sessions move into a practical, gently investigative rhythm where we notice patterns, test small changes and track what shifts between meetings. Working in English, in-person in Novelda or online, I balance focused, time-limited exercises with open reflection so that addiction urges, anxiety spikes or relationship tensions can be examined without rush. You’ll often leave with simple behavioural experiments or reflections to try before our next session. This approach tends to suit adults seeking clear, collaborative progress.
