About me

Sylwia Kuchenna

Founder of Horizon Psychotherapy and Wellbeing Clinic
Accredited Psychotherapist, Traumatologist, Author & Lecturer

My name is Sylwia Kuchenna, and I am the Founder and CEO of Horizon Psychotherapy and Wellbeing Clinic. I am fully qualified and accredited psychotherapist with an extensive academic background and many years of clinical experience working with adults and adolescents.
I am a fully accredited member of the Irish Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (IACP) and adhere strictly to its ethical code.
 My therapeutic work is grounded primarily in a psychodynamic approach, with a strong focus on trauma, attachment, and early developmental experiences. I believe that meaningful and lasting change occurs when unconscious processes are brought into awareness and understood within the context of one’s life history and relational patterns. Psychotherapy, in my view, is not a surface-level intervention but a deep, transformative process that supports patients in reconnecting with themselves at the most fundamental level.
I consider it a privilege to accompany patients on their therapeutic journey. Each individual is unique, and each story deserves to be met with respect, sensitivity, and depth. Therapy may involve exploring the past, understanding present emotional experiences, or gently working with the body and inner world. Above all, I am committed to providing a safe, contained, and non-judgmental space where patients feel seen, heard, and understood.

With heartfelt regards,
Sylwia Kuchenna

Psychtherapy and Counselling Services

Depression Treatment

Depression is a common mental disorder that involves a persistent feeling of sadness, depressed mood, loss of interest or pleasure, feelings of guilt or low self-worth, disturbed sleep or appetite, low energy, and poor concentration.

Family and Relationship Issues

Every relationship can have ups and downs or go through times of difficulty, but if there are more negatives than positives in relationship, then it might be time to think about whether or not it’s a healthy one.

Self-harm

In most cases, people who self-harm do it to help them cope with overwhelming emotional pain. This could be caused by social problems, trauma or psychological reasons.

Stress Management

Stress is a feeling of being under abnormal pressure. It can be caused by anything from an increased workload, to an argument with a family member, to financial worries.

 

Sexuality Issues

Sexuality has to do with the way you identify, how you experience sexual and romantic attraction, and your interest in and preferences around sexual and romantic relationships and behaviour. 

 

Trauma

Trauma is the experience of severe psychological distress following any terrible or life-threatening event. Trauma survivors may develop emotional disturbances such as  anxiety, anger, sadness,  guilt, or PTSD. They may experience ongoing problems with sleep or physical pain, encounter turbulence in their personal and professional relationships, and feel a diminished sense of self-worth due to the overwhelming amount of stress.

Self-Esteem Issues

Self-esteem is the degree to which one feels confident, valuable, and worthy of respect. Where a person’s self-esteem falls on this spectrum, it can influence one’s overall well-being.

 

Social Anxiety Disorder

Anxiety is a term used to describe uncomfortable feelings of nervousness, worry, and tension, which we all feel from time to time. It affects our thoughts, physical reactions, moods and behaviours. 

Bereavement and Loss

The loss of a loved one can be difficult and can trigger a dip in mental health. There is no right or wrong way to experience loss or to grieve. People may experience a wide range of emotions. This is part of coming to terms with a loss or bereavement.

Inner child work is one of the deepest works in psychotherapy. The inner child is a huge part of your psyche that is playing a huge role in your life today as an adult. It impacts your relationships, your perceptions of the world, your job, and even your thoughts about yourself. If you have experienced trauma in your childhood, didn’t feel loved, your emotional needs were not met or didn’t feel understood, visible or safe, your Inner Child is going to be wounded, and as a result, you are constantly living in the survival mode.

As traumatized children we always dreamed that someone would come and save us. We never dreamed that it would, in fact, be ourselves, as adults.

~ Alice Little
