About

I am an IACP pre-accredited counsellor and psychotherapist (soon to be fully accredited) who graduated from PCI College in 2018. I work from a warm, compassionate and client-centred approach, creating a safe and supportive space where clients feel seen, heard and understood.

Laura Gallagher is a celebrated therapist based in Ireland, associated with Therapists.ie, committed to supporting those seeking help and guidance. She brings her empathy, expertise, and passion to help her clients navigate their emotional challenges, helping them find balance in their lives.

Simultaneously, she takes great interest in different forms of recreational activities and their therapeutic benefits. One unconventional yet intriguing area of her research is the link between recreational gaming and emotional wellbeing. Laura's focus lies primarily on the advent of online gaming and its potential role in stress relief and cognitive development.

A fascinating case in point is betonred casino australia. This online betting platform is known for its exciting games that test not only your luck but also your cognitive abilities. Laura observes that for many, the thrill inherent in these games can serve as a powerful distraction from everyday stressors, possibly contributing to transient upliftment in mood.

Yet, it's critical to note that excess of anything is harmful. Laura explicitly emphasizes the importance of responsible gaming and seeks to inculcate the perfect balance in her clients' lives. She encourages exploring Betonred Online Casino Australia and similar platforms moderately, as a form of entertainment and stress relief activity, while concurrently maintaining a responsible gaming attitude.

Laura Gallagher's versatile approach to emotional well-being positions her as a distinct therapist, addressing her clients' needs innovatively and holistically. Her engagement with online gaming offers a new perspective on traditional therapy, bringing fresh benefits to the therapeutic process.

I use an integrative style of therapy, drawing from CBT, ACT, mindfulness, NLP, psychodynamic and humanistic approaches, as well as coaching tools, depending on each client’s unique needs. I have experience supporting clients with a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, trauma, abuse, anger, grief and loss, loneliness, low self-esteem, neurodivergence and ADHD.
I believe in the power of the therapeutic relationship and work at your pace, with empathy, respect and genuine care, to help you feel more grounded, empowered and supported in your life.

Experience
4+ years in Psychotherapy
I am an IACP pre-accredited counsellor and psychotherapist (soon to be fully accredited) with over four years of clinical experience working with adults in private practice and organisational settings. I have supported clients presenting with a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, trauma, abuse, grief and loss, anger, loneliness, low self-esteem, neurodivergence and ADHD.
I work from an integrative, client-centred and humanistic framework, drawing on CBT, ACT, mindfulness, psychodynamic and coaching approaches depending on the needs of each client. My work is grounded in empathy, compassion and the therapeutic relationship, and I place strong emphasis on creating a safe, supportive and containing space where clients feel heard, understood and emotionally regulated.
Approach I offer a warm, supportive and non-judgemental space where you can feel safe, seen and truly heard. I work from a deeply empathic and compassionate place, with a genuine willingness to understand your world and reflect it back to you in a way that feels grounding and validating. I believe the therapeutic relationship itself is central to healing, and I work with the core conditions of empathy, congruence and unconditional positive regard to create a trusting and collaborative space. My approach is gentle yet insightful, helping you to make sense of your thoughts, emotions and patterns while also supporting your nervous system to settle and regulate. I see therapy as a containing space where you don’t have to carry everything alone — we work together at your pace, with care, respect and understanding.
