Online Psychotherapy in Ireland & Face-to-Face Therapy in Dublin
A space to understand what you're experiencing and why.
Do you find yourself constantly overthinking, experiencing anxiety or intrusive thoughts, struggling in your relationships, feeling low, or repeating patterns that you can't quite understand?
Perhaps you know what you should do, but find yourself feeling or behaving in ways that seem difficult to change.
I'm Emma Stakelum, an ICP Accredited Psychotherapist offering online psychotherapy across Ireland and face-to-face therapy in Dublin 2.
Psychotherapy provides a confidential space to slow down, talk openly and begin to explore what may be beneath the difficulties you're experiencing. My work is informed by Freudian and Lacanian psychoanalytic psychotherapy, with the understanding that our thoughts, feelings, relationships and patterns can often have meanings that are not immediately conscious.
You don't have to have everything figured out before starting therapy.

How Can Therapy Help?
I work with adults and young people experiencing a wide range of emotional and psychological difficulties, including:
Anxiety & Chronic Worry
When anxiety begins to dominate your thoughts, relationships, or everyday life, therapy can help uncover the underlying patterns driving it.
OCD & Intrusive Thoughts
Obsessions and compulsions are often misunderstood. Therapy offers a space to explore the anxiety beneath intrusive thoughts rather than simply fighting against them.
Relationship Difficulties
Whether you find yourself repeating the same patterns, struggling with intimacy, or navigating a difficult relationship, psychotherapy can help you understand why these experiences continue to emerge.
Depression & Low Mood
Sometimes depression is not simply sadness but a feeling of emptiness, disconnection, or being unable to move forward. Therapy creates space to understand these experiences without judgement.
Trauma & Difficult Life Experiences
Past experiences often continue to shape how we experience ourselves and others. Therapy can help make sense of these experiences at your own pace.
Self-Esteem, Identity & Life Transitions
Periods of change, uncertainty, or questioning who you are can feel overwhelming. Therapy offers space to think, reflect, and move forward with greater clarity.
Therapy Tailored to You
No two people experience emotional difficulties in the same way.
Whether you are struggling with anxiety, OCD, relationship issues, trauma, or simply feeling disconnected from yourself, therapy is always guided by your individual experience.
There is no set script, no pressure to speak about anything before you are ready, and no expectation that you should already have the answers.
Together, we create a space where you can think freely, understand yourself more deeply, and begin to approach life differently.
