tom ahern
Couples Counsellor and psychotherapist
Tom’s experience spans clinical settings, private practice, and online coaching. He has also served as a Telehealth Counsellor for MensLine, SuicideLine, and the Suicide Call Back Service, offering compassionate guidance to those in their darkest hours.
Tom’s approach to counselling and psychotherapy is grounded in person-centred, existential, and Gestalt traditions. He offers a compassionate, non-judgemental space where clients are supported in exploring the full range of their lived experience—from the ache of grief and the wounds of trauma to the deep yearning for meaning, freedom, and authentic connection.
Rather than offering quick fixes, Tom walks alongside his clients as they confront life’s deeper questions, encouraging awareness in the here-and-now, trust in their own inner resources, and the courage to face what truly matters. His work is relational at its core—attuned to the unfolding process between client and therapist, and to the potential for healing that arises in genuine, present-moment contact.
Alongside his individual work, Tom integrates his training in Gottman Relationship Therapy to support couples in cultivating deeper understanding, emotional intimacy, and more conscious, resilient communication.
