About me
I'm an accredited psychotherapist and hypnotherapist from Ireland, but I have lived in Amsterdam, for 25 years where I specialized in treating Expats living in The Netherlands.I recently moved to Spain and am starting an in-person practice in Malaga, while seeing clients online as well.
After working for many years as a body-based therapist, I completed a 3 year post-graduate course in Psychotherapy in 2011. Since then I have had a full psychotherapy practice in Amsterdam.
As a therapist, I love diversity both in culture and character as well as the challenge of dealing with a wide variety of complex problems.
If you work with me , you will see that my approach starts with compassionate listening,. This is followed by a pragmatic and grounded approach to tackling obstacles and negative inner voices. This will culminate in building a healthy, loving and supportive relationship with yourself moving forward.
We will explore the hidden benefit behind unwanted patterns and behaviours in order to understand that even our worst tendencies are simply coping strategies to help us navigate difficult life experiences.
Realizing that our unhealthy patterns have an underlying positive intention, is often the key to releasing them. What we resist persists, but when we can accept ourselves as we are right now, change is often much easier.
My mission statement is that you are the expert of you. You have all the answers to your problems hidden within you. It is my job to help you find those answers using all the techniques I have learned over the course of the past 20 years. If the answers cannot be found in the conscious mind, then we can use hypnotherapy (even online) to probe the subconscious for insight and for untapped support systems. After a course of therapy with me, you should feel not just that you resolved a tenacious problem, but that you are now empowered to sustain your emotional balance and happiness into your future life.

Hello. I'm Sinead, a certified psychotherapist and hypnotherapist from Ireland.
I relocated to The Netherlands for love ,after graduating from university, and have lived most of my adult life in Amsterdam. In 2024, aged 54, I became an expat all over again when I moved with my second husband to a town close to Malaga in Spain.
Because of my own life experience, I can easily relate to the many challenges faced by expats trying to settle in a new culture. As a result, I have specialised in treating Expats as a psychotherapist in my private practice in Amsterdam for the past 12 years.
I find this work very fulfilling because I love to engage with clients from all over the world, many of whom speak English as their second or even third language. Their problems are as varied as can be, and only a little attention is usually paid to the challenges of living in a new country. Once we dive deeper, it becomes clear that relocating has simply brought to the surface problems that were already simmering down below.
Over the years, I have seen an interesting shift in the themes people bring to my practice to work on.
In the past, depression seemed to be more prevalent , but now anxiety seems to have taken over, at least among my patients.
This may reflect a shift in the culture at large.
I love to learn and hone my skills so I do professional training courses every year in areas that interest me.
As a broadly trained practitioner, I can treat a wide number of problems ,using interventions from different schools of therapy.
But in essence I am a psychodynamic therapist, helping my patients become more familiar with their own emotional landscape. Through therapy they learn to regulate difficult emotions, while revealing the message held within the pain.
My North Star as a therapist is the evidence that it is the therapeutic rapport, the alliance between patient and therapist that is most healing. So I always prioritize that rapport.
