Mrs Tara McSweeney

Psychotherapist

I am an integrative therapist which allows me to tailor my approach to each individual client’s needs. I practise Gestalt, person-centred, transactional analysis and internal family systems. I am trauma informed and emphasize emotion regulation, compassion practises, mindfulness and breathing.

About Me

I offer a tailored approach, drawing from various therapeutic methods to meet your unique needs. We can explore your experiences together, adapting our work to what serves you best. If you're navigating difficult emotions or past experiences, I can guide you. We'll develop practical tools like compassion practices and mindfulness. My aim is to create a space where you feel truly seen and supported.

Approach

Sessions tend to move between gentle noticing and active experimenting, shifting pace to what feels manageable for you. In Cork or online in English, I hold steady, predictable sessions that leave room for pauses, movement and short practical tasks between meetings. I invite breath-based grounding, compassionate self-inquiry and parts-focused exploration so you can practice new responses to anxiety, grief, body concerns or relational patterns. Many people navigating emotional overwhelm or change find this paced, practical way of working supportive and clarifying.
