    My son came to Ronan for over a year ago suffering really bad with anxiety and panic attacks he has helped him so much giving him talking him through his triggers and giving him coping skills to use when it happens. Ronan has such a great way with Kids, it's always one of my son's most favourite time of the week when he gets to chat to Ronan and always comes away with a more positive outlook on things. He's made such a difference to his life and I couldn't recommend a better Therapist.

    Ronán helped me work through anxiety with CBT. He’s very approachable, easy to talk to and I would definitely recommend him to anyone considering CBT

    My child suffers from anxiety. Since he started coming to see Ronan, he has turned into a completely different child and has totally come out of his shell He has become a lot more outgoing and confident as Ronan has given him the tools to deal with everyday situations which he would normally find difficult. I couldn’t recommend Ronan highly enough. He is excellent with Children and has given my child the tools he needs to manage his anxiety.

    My son attends Ronan on a weekly basis for nearly 7 months, I couldn't recommend Ronan enough he goes above and beyond for him. He is highly professional at what he does. I have noticed alot of change in my sons behaviour since attending Ronan, and the anxiety he used have has stopped. I couldn't recommend him enough.

    For the past two months, my wife and I have been taking our son to CBT with Ronan, and the benefits are already obvious. Our son would not go to school or leave the home before therapy, but after a friend mentioned ronan to us, we contacted him straight away and he was able to fit us in the following week, which was fantastic! Since then, our sons behaviour has improved dramatically, and he now attends school and goes out much more often, and the therapy has made a huge difference to both his and our life. Highly recommend.

    Ronán treated me for anxiety and OCD through CBT, and I couldn’t recommend him highly enough. He is kind and approachable, and while the process of going to therapy made me very nervous at first, he made it easier for me, and I used to look forward to our weekly discussions. I’ve stopped seeing Ronan since my anxiety has improved in ways I could never have imagined before, and I’m very thankful to have had Ronan to help me through this.
