About
Ms Breege McDonald is a dedicated Counsellor & Psychotherapist based in Donegal, originally from Mayo. With a wealth of experience spanning various client demographics, including adults, children, and adolescents, she addresses a broad range of issues such as anxiety, depression, anger management, grief, trauma, addiction (alcohol, substance, gambling, sexual), self-harm, HIV, self-esteem, confidence, relationship difficulties, and bullying, among others.
Her professional journey began with her qualification as a counsellor in 2014, followed by the attainment of a BSc (Hons) Degree in Professional Development in Counselling in 2017, and accreditation in 2021. Breege primarily uses a person-centred approach in her practice, supplemented by integrating other therapeutic methods tailored to individual client needs and preferences.
Central to her therapeutic philosophy is an empathic, non-judgemental environment where clients feel safe to explore their challenges and regain control over their lives. She emphasises the importance of seeking professional support independent from immediate social circles, acknowledging the complexities that various life events such as illness or job loss can bring.
In her humanistic and integrative approach, Breege collaborates closely with clients to delve into their thoughts, emotions, and how these aspects impact their daily lives. Her goal is to facilitate personal growth and empowerment, enabling clients to navigate their challenges and achieve meaningful changes in their well-being.
