If you feel that talking therapy is a way to go for you or someone you know you might consider counselling service. Ciara Kilduff is providing Counselling and Psychotherapy based in Blanchardstown, offering a professional, confidential and supportive service, at an affordable price.

Ciara Kilduff is a counsellor and psychotherapist, who has been seeing clients in Blanchardstown, Dublin 15 and in South Dublin. In recent times through her work, Ciara has become aware during times of recession that there has been an increasing number of people struggling with a range of issues including depression, anxiety, stress, financial difficulty, and family issues among other things. Ciara has spoken on stress, especially on the run into Christmas where money issues, increased expenditure higher bills and family issues increase stress levels during the holiday season. Which in turn results in people not having the happy carefree break over the Christmas Season that is often portrayed. A small bit of stress for all of us is manageable and not a big deal, often being a motivator. Over a longer period, stress could cause problems with your physical symptoms stomach ache, headaches, fatigue, and muscle pain. The Psychological effects that stress has on us we tend to forget or don't acknowledge could affect our day-to-day coping ability, confidence, and our ability to make decisions. We possibly become irritability, angry, sad or depressed. Which leads to us often overeating or undereating, outbursts, and maybe increased drug or alcohol use or social withdrawal. There are ways to manage stress, like sleeping well, exercising or talking to someone you trust.
