Shane Sheehy MSc
Combining Western and Eastern psychological, physiological and spiritual traditions, I offer a safe and secure space from where deep and expansive exploration can take place.
Continually learning, I bring strength, curiosity and tenderness to my work. At your pace, we can venture beyond conditioning and life experience, gaining deeper understanding in expanding awareness. In this space profound yet gentle healing can occur. The journey home is a powerful gift to ourselves and to others in our lives. I look forward to meeting you. Shane
Psychotherapy
I take a holistic view of the person as a relational being. My integrative approach recognises all aspects of the person, mind, body, spirit and emotions. Recognising that we all live and operate within a particular social and cultural context, I meet each person where they are and draw on different psychotherapeutic disciplines including Attachment Theory, Existential Psychotherapy, Somatic Experiencing, Transpersonal Psychotherapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Transactional Analysis within the therapy space to facilitate understanding and healing.
I am fully accredited by the Irish Association of Humanistic & Integrative Psychotherapy (IAHIP) iahip.org
Mindfulness
I am a Mindfulness teacher and periodically run Meditation Courses in person and online. Mindfulness invites stillness, allowing us to pay attention to our experience; without trying to change that which arises. This awareness and allowing can be seen as a path towards awakening to our true nature and to express it in our everyday lives.
I am fully accredited by the Mindfulness Teachers Association of Ireland (MTAI) mtai.ie.
Psychedelic Integration Therapy
While in Ireland it is currently not legal to offer psychedelic therapy outside of a small number of ongoing clinical trials, I am aware that many people engage with psychedelics and often do so without therapeutic support. These experiences can be profound, rich and beautiful but without adequate support can also be overwhelming and deeply unsettling.
I offer therapeutic Integration in order to help people in grounding, regulating and making sense of their experience as well as incorporating the teachings into their daily lives. This work can offer deep psychological, spiritual and emotional support and can also reframe an encounter with an entheogen from just an experience to a truly transformative encounter.
