In-focus Psychotherapy

A compassionate, understanding, non-judgemental space to work through life's challenges

At In-focus Psychotherapy there is an emphasis on practicing psychodynamic psychotherapy from a relational lens. 


In simple terms, that means we’ll explore how your past experiences, relationships, and unconscious patterns might be shaping how you feel and live today. 


Real healing and change happen through genuine, trusting connection, in a space where you can feel seen, heard, and understood without judgment or agenda.


Therapy isn’t about fixing you. It’s about helping you understand yourself in deeper, more meaningful ways so that you can make the changes you want to make in your life. If you come to therapy at In-focus Psychotherapy, together, we’ll look beneath the surface, make sense of what’s been weighing on you, and work toward lasting emotional growth and real-world change.


If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, depressed, confused, broken, or just curious about yourself, you’re welcome here.

John Doyle, Adolescent and Adult Psychotherapist

John Doyle, Adolescent and Adult Psychotherapist

I am a fully qualified Psychotherapist holding an MA in Integrative and humanistic Psychotherapy from SETU and the Tivoli Institute, and an IACP accredited Professional Diploma in Adolescent Psychotherapy. I have also completed additional professional training in areas such as the treatment of Eating Disorders, Neurodiverse informed psychotherapy for adolescents, and the treatment of process addictions.


I practice psychodynamic psychotherapy through a relational lens. This means that, together, we will explore how your past experiences, relationships, and unconscious patterns may be shaping your present life. My aim is to offer a safe, compassionate space where you can freely explore what’s on your mind without fear of judgment or pressure to "have it all figured out."


Before becoming a psychotherapist, I spent almost two decades working in the arts and educations sectors  leading creative communities and working closely with people navigating their own growth, expression, and self-doubt. That experience deeply informs my therapeutic approach—I know the importance of having environments where you can safely explore who you are, experiment, and connect with your own inner resources.


I am also a fully qualified secondary-school teacher, and I believe that my experience of working with Adolescents in this setting has given me a valuable and unique set of insights and experiences which I bring to my work when working with young people therapeutically.


In therapy, I work with people who feel stuck, disconnected, or are wrestling with big questions around identity, freedom, meaning, and authenticity. I’m particularly interested in how we make sense of our place in the world, how we navigate personal responsibility, and how we can start to live more fully in alignment with who we really are.


Psychotherapy isn’t about quick fixes—it’s about getting curious, building insight, and fostering emotional connection that can lead to real, lasting change. 


If you're looking for a space to slow down, reflect, and explore your life at a deeper level, I’d love to meet you.

However owever extreme your problem may feel, and however frightening the thought of talking about it out loud may be, you will find someone who is ready to listen, and to help, without judgement at In-focus Psychotherapy.


In your first therapy session, we will discuss your reasons for seeking therapy and what you hope to get from coming. We will also talk about your medical history and any current symptoms you may be experiencing. I will seek to understand the type of therapy that would benefit you most. I believe that each client's needs are different, and in our first session we will work to understand what your individual needs might be.


The frequency of therapy sessions will depend on your individual needs and goals. Many clients attend therapy once a week, while others may attend less frequently. I will work with you to develop a personalised plan that feels right.


I am fully qualified to work with clients from age 12+, and have specialist training in Adolescent Psychotherapy.


Yes. At In-focus Psychotherapy I offer both in-person sessions in our office at 36 South Main Street Naas, and online via zoom. Clients can choose the option which best suits their needs. I also offer a hybrid model, with some sessions is person and some online.


Yes. Psychotherapy is a completely confidential space. The only time that confidentiality would come into question would be if you were a danger to yourself or to others, and, in this instance, we would decide, together, how to move forward. At In-focus Psychotherapy we adhere to the code of ethics of both the IACP and the IAHiP - the two main professional psychotherapy bodies in Ireland.


No. the same limits of confidentiality apply whether you are over or under 18. The only time that confidentiality would come into question would be if you were a danger to yourself or to others, and, in this instance, we would decide, together, how to move forward. However, appropriate openness with parents or guardians can be really helpful, and this is something will discuss in our sessions. At In-focus Psychotherapy we adhere to the code of ethics of both the IACP and the IAHAP - the two main professional psychotherapy bodies in Ireland.


The standard fee at In-focus Psychotherapy is €75.00 per session. Sessions last for 1 hour. I also offer reduced cost psychotherapy in certain situations based on individual client's circumstances and needs. This can be discussed in person or in an initial phone consultation.
