About GAP

GAP (Group Analytic Practice) is a practice that provides therapeutic and psychodynamic services to individuals, groups and organisations. We work with people, on a confidential basis, to develop awareness and strategies to overcome difficulties in their lives and support them in their workplaces. GAP is an established and experienced practice founded in Dublin’s city centre in 1994 by a number of Group Analysts. The cornerstone of our practice then and now is the provision of Group Therapy. The practice is managed by a Director group and we take great care in the management of our client referrals, therapists and the running of our practice. The Director group currently includes six Group Analysts.
