      <image:title>Home - A little about Kevin</image:title>
      <image:caption>Kevin is a graduate of Munster Technological University’s well-regarded counselling and psychotherapy program. Coming from a background in the intellectual disability sector, where he worked as a care assistant for many years, Kevin took the decision in 2015 to train as a counsellor. This journey taught him lots about himself and left him with a desire to help others to improve their mental health by guiding them toward a deeper knowledge of who they are and what makes them tick. Kevin is a fully-accredited member of the Irish Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and abides by their code of ethics. For more information on Kevin’s professional background click here. Some of the issues Kevin has helped clients come to terms with include: loneliness, depression, social isolation, anxiety, panic attacks, acquired brain injury, issues related to aging, anger-management, low self-esteem, codependency issues, bereavement, family conflict, marital breakup, relationship problems, unemployment, homelessness, men’s issues, childhood trauma, post-traumatic stress (PTSD), family estrangement, identity issues, cultural issues, and more. Kevin is currently working towards an MSc in Loss and Bereavement (Clinical Practice) with the Irish Hospice Foundation. Kevin has an interest in helping parents of children with special needs come to terms with their circumstances, including those who are parents to children with life-limiting conditions. Kevin is strongly influenced by the Humanistic tradition in Counselling and his intention is to always assist the client toward self-discovery and insight.</image:caption>
