About Mr Seán Thunder

Sean Thunder is an IACP-accredited psychotherapist with a BA (Hons) in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy. His journey into therapy began later in life after returning to education in 2015, bringing with him a wealth of real-world experience. Sean now works in private practice offering in-person, online, and phone counselling, and serves as an in-house Gambling Addiction Therapist at several family resource centres in Dublin.

Sean provides a supportive, down-to-earth space where clients can explore personal challenges such as anxiety, depression, addiction, bereavement, self-esteem, and workplace stress. His approach is person-centred and integrative, drawing from a variety of therapeutic modalities including CBT, Choice Theory, Psychoanalytic, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy. He also has specialised training in recognising and responding to problem gambling (Level 9, MTU).

With a background in industrial relations and lived experience navigating change, Sean is especially attuned to work-related mental health challenges and is passionate about supporting individuals affected by gambling addiction. His work focuses not only on the individuals struggling, but also their families and support systems.

Whether you're seeking support with emotional struggles, behavioural challenges, or simply want to explore personal growth, Sean offers empathy, guidance, and practical tools to help you move forward.

Sean is available for video consultations as well as phone consultations.

He’s a very empathetic and knowledgeable person. He helped me put my emotions and behaviors into context, and is helping me develop the tools to uncover these things for myself. He did not make me feel judged and I look forward to each session.

I have been working with Sean since may and thanks to his guidance, knowledge and genuine care for his clients I have made great progress. Sean instinctively knows how to create a space that is open and safe and is an excellent listener and communicator. I would have know hesitation in recommending Sean to anyone!

Sean's manner and approach put me at ease instantly. Friendly and easy to be with. He is a really good listener, with a keen understanding of the human condition. Offered me many valuable insights and reassurances, and these were not inappropriate in any way. I am writing this several weeks later (my fault) and much reflection in the meantime has not caused me to see my experience with Sean in any less favourable light.

Sean was one of the very few therapists i was able to fully connect with and feel comfortable with. He was so welcoming and i felt very safe in his presence. I enjoyed his methods and practices and how he handled situations and conversations. Instead of normally only feeling anxious down and deflated when leaving a therapy session i felt comfort relief and hope.

My recent visit was for support following the sudden death of my father. I prefer one to one face support. Sean made me feel so comfortable from my first apt. You feel you know him immediately. He really listens to you and knows what questions to ask you. He is full of empathy and very professional, efficient and effective. The counselling has provided much needed to support to me and I would highly recommend Sean to anybody 5 stars from me.
