Melissa O’Shaughnessy

I am a dedicated counsellor working predominantly with young people to support their mental health journeys.

My approach is tailored to your unique story and needs, utilising a blend of evidence-based counselling methods, including Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, and Art Therapy.

• CBT helps to identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns, paving the way for positive change.
• Narrative Therapy invites you to explore and re-author the stories you hold about yourself, empowering you to find new perspectives.
• Art Therapy offers a creative, non-verbal outlet for expression and healing, perfect for those who find traditional talk therapy challenging.

Together, we’ll create a safe, supportive space where you can explore your experiences, build resilience, and work towards the meaningful changes you want in your life. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, or seeking personal growth, I’m here to guide and walk alongside you.
