About Liza O’Grady

Psychotherapist in Ireland

Meet Liza

“I help make sense of what is happening and work out what might help you”

Before becoming a psychotherapist, I spent many years working in senior business roles and have lived and worked outside Ireland. Returning home has given me a different perspective on the experiences that shape us, the expectations we carry, the pressures we manage and the ways we learn to cope.

These experiences are part of who I am, but they are not what our work is about.
Our work is about you.
I believe that everyone has a story, and that sometimes it can be difficult to see that story clearly when you’re in the middle of living it.
Therapy provides a space to pause, reflect and begin to make sense of what is happening.
You don’t need to have everything figured out before you come.
You don’t even need to know exactly why you’re here.
We can start with where you are.

What can I do for you?

I don’t believe there is one approach to therapy that works for everyone.
You are unique, and your reasons for coming to therapy are your own. So rather than trying to fit you into a particular formula, I aim to understand what you need and work with you from there.
My role is not to tell you what to do.
You are the expert in your own life.

My role is to help you explore what is happening, notice patterns, understand your feelings and perhaps see things from a different perspective.
Sometimes that might mean gently challenging something.
Sometimes it might simply mean having someone really listen.
And sometimes, therapy can provide something that is difficult to find elsewhere: a space that is completely yours to stop and think.

See whether the approach feels right.
