About

Deirdre Fahy is a neurodivergent psychotherapist with a unique perspective, having been diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 48. This diagnosis brought clarity to her own experiences of generalised anxiety and feeling ‘different,’ which in turn deepened her passion for supporting adults with ADHD and Autism Spectrum conditions.
Deirdre works flexibly with a wide range of issues, often discovering the real concern as therapy progresses. She provides a safe, confidential space for clients, allowing therapy to unfold at their own pace. Drawing on various therapeutic modalities, her primary approach is person-centred, based on the work of Carl Rogers, where she offers unconditional positive regard and genuine empathy. Her non-judgemental approach ensures clients can express themselves fully, without the need to censor their thoughts.
In addition to person-centred therapy, Deirdre is trained in Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (MBCT), and has certification in ADHD support for neurodiverse clients. Her services include CBT, Internal Family Systems Therapy, Somatic Therapy, and more, tailored to meet the individual needs of each client. Deirdre’s diverse training and holistic approach ensure that she can adapt her practice to best support her clients on their therapeutic journey.

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

LOCAL CARE CONTEXT

Why local healthcare in Online matters

Medical practice in Ireland is governed by country-specific licensing, professional standards, and patient-safety regulations. Practitioners listed here are registered with the relevant Ireland medical authority and operate within national rules on scope of practice, prescribing rights, and continuing professional development. Care delivered in Online carries the additional benefits of local language support, in-person follow-up, and direct coordination with regional hospitals and labs. A verified profile means EuroClinics has cross-checked the practitioner or clinic against an official source (national medical register, public licence database, or the practitioner themselves), and that the data shown here matches that source as of the last verification date above.
