Counselling for Drinking Problems for Newry, without the journey
Across Newry, from the city centre and the canal to Bessbrook, Meadow and the Fathom, and from the streets around the cathedral, the Newry canal and the Mourne mountains nearby, online counselling for drinking problems takes the logistics out of getting help: no commute, no waiting room, and the focus kept where it belongs, on you.
From my base in Hove, I see clients all over the country by video. For someone in Newry, that opens up an experienced, BACP-registered specialist without the need to find one on your own doorstep.
I also work online with people elsewhere in Northern Ireland, including Craigavon, Lisburn, Belfast.
If you would still prefer to meet in person and can travel to the Sussex coast, you are welcome to, but for most clients in Newry online counselling for drinking problems is the natural and effective choice.
Life in Newry
Why people in Newry reach out
Newry is a city on the border with the Republic, long shaped by its frontier position and the cross-border economy. The legacy of the Troubles, the uncertainty that comes with life on the border and rural isolation nearby all shape the pressures people here carry.
Smaller towns can be close-knit in ways that are both comforting and exposing. Working online means you can seek support discreetly, without being seen coming and going.

Why online works in Newry
Why people in Newry choose online counselling
Discreet in a close-knit place
In a town where people know one another, online sessions keep your support entirely private.
Less time lost from work
An online hour rarely costs you a half-day, which is what makes regular sessions realistic for busy lives in Newry.
Support that travels
If you move, travel for work or split your time between places, online counselling carries on uninterrupted wherever you happen to be.
No commute, no waiting room
From Newry, there's no journey across town and no waiting room. You join from wherever feels safe, and the rest of your day simply carries on around the session.
How online sessions work
Underneath the screen, the therapy itself works like this. In our sessions we take an integrative approach, viewing your difficulties from an existential and humanistic perspective. Because you are the one who knows yourself best, my role is to walk alongside you as you build genuine alternatives to drinking.
Sessions run over a secure video link. All you need is a private space where you won't be interrupted, a laptop, tablet or phone, and a reasonable connection. We begin with a free fifteen-minute call, then I send a simple link you click at the agreed time.

Start the conversationFinding support in Newry
My online counselling sits alongside the help available locally, and it can be worth knowing what else is there. In Newry, your GP can refer you to talking therapies and counselling through Health and Social Care. You can find support through Lifeline, Northern Ireland's crisis helpline, free on 0808 808 8000.
Private sessions with me usually mean you can start sooner, stay with the same counsellor throughout, and work at greater depth and pace; the two can run side by side, and I'm glad to work alongside any NHS or GP support you already have.
If you need urgent help now
This practice is not a crisis service. If you or someone else is in immediate danger, call 999.
For urgent mental health support, call Lifeline free on 0808 808 8000. Lifeline is free on 0808 808 8000, and the Samaritans are on 116 123.
