About

Ms Vivienne Lillis is a Counsellor and Psychotherapist with an Honours Degree in Counselling and Psychotherapy and a Postgraduate Cerificate in CBT alongside additional specialist training in trauma-informed practice and domestic violence awareness. She is a fully accredited member of the Association for Professional Counsellors & Psychotherapists in Ireland.

Ms Lillis works with a broad range of emotional and psychological difficulties, including anxiety, stress, depression, trauma, PTSD, low self-esteem, and recovery from abuse and domestic violence. Her therapeutic approach is collaborative and client-centred, with an emphasis on building resilience, strengthening coping strategies, and supporting individuals in working towards improved emotional balance and wellbeing.

She integrates talk therapy with body-based therapeutic techniques informed by her training as a qualified yoga teacher. This includes the use of breathwork and nervous system regulation strategies to help clients manage emotional distress, improve self-awareness, and develop healthier responses to stress and trauma-related triggers.

Ms Lillis adopts a non-judgemental and supportive stance, aiming to create a safe therapeutic space in which clients can explore difficulties at their own pace. Her work focuses on empowering individuals to identify personal goals and overcome barriers to change through practical, skills-based approaches.

Her practice is grounded in trauma-informed principles and a holistic understanding of the connection between mind and body, with an emphasis on sustainable emotional regulation and long-term psychological wellbeing.

“Evidence-based care tailored to each patient — taking the time to explain options and shared decisions.”

— Ms Vivienne Lillis
