Thanks for visiting. I’m Dr. Aoiffe Kilcommons, the director of Happiness in Mind, Psychology and Well-being Services.
At Happiness in Mind, we can help you learn how to use your mind and emotions to achieve your full potential, to stay mentally tough under pressure and to create lasting happiness in your life.
The reality is, we’re all vulnerable to stress and pain in life. As human beings, we can’t avoid it. Stress is now recognised as the basic cause of more than 60 % of all human illnesses and diseases according to the American Medical Association.
We live in a fast-paced, demanding world. At some point we all face disappointment, crisis, failure, illness, injury, or lose valued relationships through rejection, separation or death. This can leave many of us struggling with negative thoughts and feelings. Despite not wanting to be stuck in our pain, we know it can be hard to steer ourselves towards feeling calmer and happier. And we can end up unhappy, stressed, depressed, anxious, obsessed, addicted, with poor confidence, relationship difficulties and in poor physical health.
Regardless of who we are or what we do, we all ultimately long for a life that is a truly happy one. My own search for true happiness began at the age of 14. After decades of studying both western psychology and eastern approaches to healing, I discovered the keys to lasting happiness and fulfilment.
Happiness can mean different things to different people. However, my understanding is that happiness is not just a feeling. It is an optimal state of being and profound peace with the world that is accessed when our mind is free from inner conflicts.
From our experience of working with hundreds of people, happiness is a skill that can be learnt and developed to help us transform our lives.
So whoever you are - whether you’re a business leader, professional sports athlete, plumber, stay at home mum, student, not working or retired – we can help you achieve your full potential.
In our Clinical Psychology service, I lead a team of highly skilled Clinical Psychologists experienced in assessing and helping people overcome a wide range of issues including: Stress, Anxiety, Depression, Relationships Difficulties, Low Self-Esteem, Trauma/ PTSD, Childhood Abuse, Addiction, Physical Health issues and lots more.
