I am Emma Tynan, an APCP-accredited psychotherapist based in Athlone. I hold a Master's degree in Psychotherapy and Counselling and offer counselling, psychotherapy, and cross-professional supervision both in person and online.
I have over a decade of experience working in healthcare and have worked in private practice for a number of years supporting adults experiencing a range of difficulties. I am currently completing a Diploma in Supervision Across Professions and remain committed to ongoing professional development.
My Work as a Psychotherapist
As a psychotherapist, I work with adults experiencing a range of difficulties, with a particular interest in medical trauma, chronic illness, anxiety, and grief.
Having worked within healthcare and experienced my own encounters with a medical system that provided few answers, I understand how deeply illness, uncertainty, and medical experiences can affect every aspect of a person's life. Whether someone is living with a diagnosis, searching for answers, adapting to life after illness, or coping with the emotional impact of medical experiences, I aim to provide a supportive and compassionate space where they can explore what they are going through.
I believe therapy should be a place where people feel heard, understood, and supported as they make sense of their experiences and move towards the life they want to live.
My Work as a Cross-Professional Supervisor
Alongside counselling and psychotherapy, I also offer cross-professional supervision.
Having worked in a number of frontline professions throughout my career, I often reflected on how beneficial supervision would have been within those roles. After experiencing the value of supervision as a psychotherapist, I was inspired to undertake a Diploma in Supervision Across Professions and offer supervision to professionals, groups, teams, and organisations across a wide range of sectors.
Supervision provides a space to reflect on workplace challenges, professional practice, wellbeing, decision-making, and professional development. My aim is to offer a supportive and reflective environment where professionals can pause, think, and explore the opportunities and challenges that arise within their work.
