"Therapy is an investigation of how we function in the world,
and how we can function more in tune with our nature…"   -   Joel Latner​

Sean O' Faolain

I have worked as a counsellor for the last eight years and have extensive experience with personal development, sexuality and relationships. I completed an advanced diploma of Transpersonal Counselling in Phoenix Institute and a Masters in Gestalt Psychotherapy at the Gestalt Therapy Institute in Brisbane. I am currently studying Somatic Experiencing to support with embodied trauma work. I have immersed myself in personal development over the last sixteen years, participating in over a thousand hours of workshops in the areas of Tantra and Sacred Sexuality, Yoga and Meditation, Menswork, Emotional Mastery and Self Development.
I have worked with many clients who have experienced the impact of trauma, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, relationship issues, sexual challenges, negative self image and many other presentations. I have both personal experience in these areas and a wealth of theoretical knowledge. This gives me a great level of compassion and understanding for what you are moving through as I have journeyed through these terrains myself and can simply be with you and guide you whilst you face these challenges in your own life. Whilst many clients come to therapy when they are facing challenges in life, many also come to help them make changes in their life, helping them to make new choices and find a more clear direction in their lives. 

I have been on a journey of awakening and personal development for the last sixteen years. Originally from Ireland, I grew up in a loving family with my parents and four sisters. I knew from an early age that something was missing from life and I embarked on my own spiritual journey, discovering yoga and meditation as a young teenager. Life took over a number of years later and it was another twenty years or so before I returned to yoga and meditation.  About fourteen years ago I discovered the world of spirituality and personal development workshops and was fascinated by the depth of connection, and feeling that was possible both with myself and others. I had learned in Ireland to suppress emotions and sexuality and now I was discovering the power of connecting with my emotional and sexual nature. I have been deeply committed to my own growth and evolution and have studied under many teachers and mentors. I now feel honoured to support you on your own journey of self discovery and development.

"Working with Sean has given me so much.
Every session is a revelation.
I feel heard, I feel seen and Sean is able to help me look deeply into different aspects of my life with clarity and wisdom.
I am incredibly grateful for the space Sean creates for me to explore my thoughts and feelings.
I feel safe and held and also challenged in the best ways.
I highly recommend his sessions to anyone who wants a place to feel supported in doing the work to improve their life."
