Mary Conroy

Mary is a qualified Integrative Psychotherapist and Pre-Accredited member of the Irish Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (IACP). She holds a degree in Integrative Psychotherapy from the Institute of Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy (IICP), a Specialist Diploma in Eating Disorders and a Higher Diploma in Trauma-Informed Care from the Greenane Centre.

Mary is currently undertaking a Master's programme in Bereavement and Loss at the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland (RCSI), further developing her knowledge and understanding of grief, loss and their emotional and psychological impact. Her additional professional training includes HSE ASIST (Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training), HSE Suicide Bereavement Training, Tusla Children First and specialist training in Sexual Violence for Professionals through the Rape Crisis Centre.

Mary works with adults experiencing a wide range of emotional and psychological challenges, including anxiety, stress, relationship and family difficulties, trauma, bereavement, life transitions and the pressures of work and everyday life. She recognises that even when we appear to be managing well on the outside, life can sometimes feel overwhelming, and reaching out for support is not always easy.

Working from an integrative, person-centred approach, Mary places great importance on developing a strong therapeutic relationship built on trust, empathy, authenticity and mutual respect. She believes that each person is the expert in their own life and that therapy should be a collaborative process, guided by the individual's unique experiences, needs and goals.

Mary offers a warm, compassionate and non-judgemental space where clients can feel genuinely heard, understood and supported. Through gentle exploration of thoughts, feelings, beliefs and patterns, she supports clients in developing greater self-awareness, understanding themselves more deeply and discovering ways forward that feel meaningful to them.
