Such a special evening for some of the Misneach team attending the launch of Hungry by Katriona O’Sullivan.

What a breath of fresh air.
Honest, powerful, and deeply human. The kind of storytelling that stays with you long after you leave the room.

It was more than just a book launch. It was a reminder of the real, lived experiences behind so many of the people we sit with every day. A reminder of resilience. Of survival. Of what can happen when someone is truly seen and supported.

And most of all… a reminder of the power of psychotherapy.

To hold space.
To witness.
To gently walk alongside someone as they begin to make sense of their story.

Grateful for nights like this and for the work we get to do every day 💞

Thanks a million to Radio for having me on this morning 🙌

We spoke about bringing The Misneach Centre out into festivals this summer, meeting people where they are, in real life and my new workshop: How Not to Take Work Home With You 👌

Because you can’t pour from an empty cup, and carrying everything home with you isn’t sustainable.

Exciting times ahead 💙

At The Misneach Centre, we care about the little touches that help you feel safe, welcome, and at ease.

From a wide selection of herbal teas, Barry’s Tea, Lyons Tea, instant coffee, and Nespresso coffee, to cosy rooms, soft blankets, and calming scents, everything is designed to help you relax and settle into your session.

We understand that coming to counselling can feel daunting, so creating comfort matters.

Sometimes a warm drink, a gentle atmosphere, and a space that feels calm can go a long way in supporting nervous system regulation and helping you arrive more fully into the room.

You’ll also find thoughtful extras throughout the centre, including phone chargers if your battery is low, and a bathroom care basket with essentials such as deodorants, sanitary products, mouthwash, toothpicks, plasters, paracetamol, and Rennies.

No matter how you arrive, or what kind of day you’re having, you’ll be supported.

If there’s anything else that would help you feel more comfortable during your time with us, please let me know 💞

If you work with people, you’ll know…

conversations don’t always stay light.

Clients open up. They share what’s going on in their lives.

And while it’s a privilege to be someone people feel safe with it can also stay with you long after the day ends.

This workshop is about supporting you.

✔ What to say in the moment
✔ How to hold boundaries without feeling rude
✔ How to support clients without getting pulled in
✔ How to switch off and not take it home with you

📍 The Misneach Centre, Moate
🗓 Monday 27th April
🕙 1.30pm to 4pm
💶 €35

🎓 CPD certificate provided

Held midweek when energy is still good, not at the end of a long day.

Krąg Kobiet

Jeśli czujesz, że potrzebujesz chwili dla siebie,
zapraszam Cię do przestrzeni, w której możesz być w pełni sobą – bez masek, udawania, porównywania się czy rywalizacji.

To czas dla kobiet, aby spotkać się w obecności, szczerości i wzajemnym wsparciu.

🌿 Co robimy w Kręgu Kobiet?

🌿 Słuchamy i dzielimy się w bezpiecznej, wspierającej atmosferze
🌿 Angażujemy się w ćwiczenia rozwojowe, które pomagają nam lepiej zrozumieć siebie
🌿 Praktykujemy medytację i techniki relaksacyjne
🌿 Odkrywamy naszą kobiecość, intuicję i wewnętrzną siłę
🌿 Łączymy się z innymi kobietami, budujemy relacje i wspieramy się nawzajem

To coś więcej niż tylko rozmowa — to czas dla siebie, rozwój, doświadczenie i prawdziwe połączenie ze sobą i innymi.

Przyjdź, usiądź z nami w kręgu.
Poczuj spokój, połączenie i kobiecą energię.

📍 Spotykamy się dwa razy w miesiącu
🕕 18:00 – 20:00
📍 The Misneach Centre, Moate

💫 Najbliższe spotkanie: 19 kwietnia
💶 Koszt: 15 € (w cenie kawa, herbata i domowe wypieki)

Tara has been part of The Misneach Centre since we first opened, and we feel incredibly fortunate to have her on our team.

As our Art Psychotherapist, Tara brings a depth of skill, creativity, and compassion to her work with both adults and teens.

Her approach offers something truly valuable, a way of exploring and expressing what can often feel difficult to put into words, without needing it to fully make sense.

She provides a safe, supportive space where clients can explore their experiences at their own pace, in a way that feels right for them.

You can read Tara’s blog below to learn more about how art therapy can support you or someone you care about.
