Kenneth’s JOURNEY
Kenneth Liddane
BA Holistic Counselling and Psychotherapy | Diploma Hypnotherapy & Mind Coaching | Accredited member of IACP
Kenneth Liddane is a qualified, experienced, and IACP-accredited counsellor & psychotherapist, with a background in hypnotherapy and mind coaching. He is the founder of A Helping Mind and Midlands Affordable Counselling, and continues to volunteer with East Galway & Midlands Cancer Support in Ballinasloe.
He works with individuals and couples, both in-person and online, and he is also completing a master’s degree in child and adolescent psychotherapy, which he will shortly be adding to his available services.
Kenneth specialises in helping you navigate the internal battle between “how I think” and “how I feel.” For example: Do you experience feelings and emotions that don’t align with how you think you should be feeling at that time? Or do you want to move forward but find yourself stuck, procrastinating, or acting in ways that don’t align with your intentions?
Kenneth’s approach is to first help you make sense of your internal processes so you can collaboratively and transparently explore how past, present, or future challenges are impacting you. Your work with Kenneth will be tailored to your specific needs by integrating a range of therapeutic approaches, helping you to develop effective skills and gain the confidence and freedom to meet your potential and continue to grow. He welcomes, connects with, and values all individuals and relationships in a non-judgemental, empathic, and genuine way, regardless of gender, ethnicity, background, and physical or emotional challenges.
He has experience supporting individuals who struggle with depression, anxiety, panic attacks, low self-confidence, low self-worth, stress, burnout, anger, trauma from emotional, physical or sexual abuse, loss and bereavement, life-changing diagnoses, carer burden, negative self-image and gender identity concerns.
As a couple’s counsellor, Kenneth provides a supportive space to explore challenges within important relationships, including partners, family members, parents and children, work colleagues, and others in your life. His focus is to foster open communication, healthy boundaries, connection, and mutual understanding, particularly during times of conflict, transition, or disconnection, where all involved can feel heard, supported, and guided toward healthier patterns of relating and deeper understanding.
You are welcome to book a free consultation to help determine whether Kenneth is the right therapist for you. If either of you feels like it may not be the right fit, he will support you in finding alternative therapists who may be better suited to your specific needs. So, the next step is up to you

Kenneth’s Journey & Goals
Having suffered from depression in the past, it took me a long time to recover, or even seek help. Due to a lack of understanding, a perceived lack of options, a negative perception of therapy, with a generous helping of stubbornness thrown in, not only was the road to recovery hindered, but it also provided me with the unique opportunity to see how utterly debilitating it can be. It was a combination of this understanding, and a realisation that I needed help, that drove me to study the mind and to find out more about the unknown aspects about the unconscious.
From what I have learned and experienced throughout my life and in college, I can identify with individuals who are struggling with their mental health, and who are unaware of possible options that can help them out of a difficult situation. I also recognised that even a basic understanding of why we think, feel and behave the way we do, can help to ease the frustration and confusion that can be associated with understanding our own mental health, and realising our full potential.
This insight inspired me to write my first book, ‘Finding Happiness In The Dark’ and to launch my business ‘A Helping Mind’, where I have developed a platform to provide options, knowledge and support, through personal therapy, books, workshops and online courses for those in need. As my sense of curiosity and quest to find out more about the mind grows, I will continue to develop further services and resources to support individuals that are struggling with their mental health.
I incorporate a person-centred, holistic counselling and psychotherapeutic approach, integrating a number of therapeutic theories and interventions to best suit your needs, in doing so I provide a non-judgemental, empathic and safe space for you to be heard, valued and supported through whatever challenges you are struggling with. From our first session, you will see that I am down to earth, honest and open. As I get to know your unique challenges, environment and experiences, I become better able to support you in three key areas:
I provide coping mechanisms and skills to help relieve the impact of immediate challenges you are facing.
I help you to understand and become aware of how your thoughts, feelings and behaviours develop.
I help you to develop lasting positive change as you realise your full potential.
