Marie Byrne
Glosna House Founder

Marie founded Glosna House in 2010, creating a unique space for holistic and therapeutic support in Ireland. Over the past 15 years, Glosna House has grown into Ireland’s most comprehensive private centre for mental health and well-being, offering the widest range of therapeutic, holistic, and mental health services under one roof.
Marie was a fully accredited Humanistic & Integrative Psychotherapist (IAHIP) and was a registered member of the Irish Council for Psychotherapy (ICP) for over 15 years. After many years working directly with clients, she has stepped away from clinical practice to focus on expanding and managing Glosna House, supporting the centre’s continuous growth and ensuring its services reach as many people as possible.
While her work is now more behind the scenes, Marie remains deeply connected to the heart of Glosna House - nurturing its development with the help of her dedicated team.
Marie is also a proud mother to her wonderful daughter Marley, a role she considers her most important and cherished. She shares her home with several rescued animals who have found sanctuary at Glosna House, fostering and adopting from local rescue organisations - a cause close to her heart.
Marie’s passion lies in nurturing a supportive, inclusive community where both clients and practitioners can truly thrive. At the heart of Glosna House is the belief that healing is not a one-size-fits-all journey. Instead of prescribing what someone “should” need, Glosna offers a diverse range of therapies and services - allowing each person to choose what feels right for them, in their own time.
Whether it’s physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual support, the goal has always been to create a warm and welcoming space where every individual, regardless of age or background, can find a path that supports their unique needs.
With her roots in psychotherapy and a strong background in communication and leadership, Marie is dedicated to ensuring Glosna House continues to grow while staying true to its original vision - a sanctuary of choice, compassion, and holistic support for all who walk through its doors.
