'Whilst a practitioner’s role is often focused on supporting clients to take better care of themselves, as practitioners we ought to bring equal focus to supporting ourselves too. Unfortunately this is often not the case.' - Brendan Mooney Psychologist
'What if as a society we have created false versions of 'truth', which then sadly results in us turning away from what is in fact true?' - Brendan Mooney Psychologist 'Deep down we are all the same, irrespective of race, religion, nationality or any other 'difference'. So why do we continue to invest in the latter as a form of identification?' - Brendan Mooney Psychologist 'When we withdraw from life we set ourselves up to experience all the typical symptoms of depression. This type of withdrawal is an inner withdrawal, and may involve a person physically withdrawing from people or employment but not necessarily. And whilst a person may feel justified in their reason to withdraw, it is nevertheless always a choice that we make that need not be.' - Brendan Mooney Psychologist 'Whilst we may fool others, at the end of the day we sleep in the quality of our own making.' - Brendan Mooney Psychologist 'When underlying issue/s begin to be addressed, sometimes symptoms can initially increase – in other words it can appear in the short-term that a person's condition is becoming worse. However, it is not that the client’s condition is becoming worse but that a deeper layer of what is unresolved is being exposed to be cleared.' - Brendan Mooney Psychologist 'It takes deep understanding to honour what is true when everyone else around you is choosing the opposite.' - Brendan Mooney Psychologist 'We can engage in many behaviours under the belief they will protect us from getting hurt, but have we really considered the true impact this way of living has on our lives?' - Brendan Mooney Psychologist

'We are all by nature deeply sensitive, although we often use a variety of ways specifically designed to hide, dull, or in some cases completely obliterate our awareness of the fact.' - Brendan Mooney Psychologist
'How do we expect to think well if we are not supporting our bodies to be well?' - Brendan Mooney Psychologist
'To what extent do we judge others and the world? That is, how often do we bring our own projections to situations based on past hurts, rather than truly observing a situation for what it is?' - Brendan Mooney Psychologist
