“Most therapists understand addiction academically.
I understand it because I lived it — and I found the way out. That changes everything about what I can do for you.”

My Story

I Was Addicted.
Now I Help Others Escape.

For years, cocaine, alcohol, and gambling had me trapped. I saw therapists. Read the books. Nothing landed — because no one in that room had actually been where I was. The gap between theory and lived reality was impossible to bridge.

Then I found a way through. Not a shortcut — a real, structured dismantling of the patterns that kept me stuck. I went on to earn my CBT degree, write two books, and build a practice around the exact methodology that changed my life.

What makes me different is that I've lived it — and I'm formally qualified to get you out too. It's the fact that when you sit across from me, I already know exactly what you're carrying — and exactly what it takes to put it down.

What I Treat

Specialist Support.
Real Outcomes.

I work with a small number of clients at any time. Every session is private, structured, and built around your specific situation.

01

Cocaine Addiction

My core specialism. I understand the psychology, the social world, and the shame of cocaine addiction from the inside. I've been there myself, and I found the way out.

02

Depression & Anxiety

Evidence-based CBT for the depression and anxiety that so often sit underneath addiction. Many clients find these are the real root — and that's where we do the deepest work.

03

All Addiction & Recovery

Alcohol, gambling, prescription drugs, and other substance use. If you're trapped in a pattern you can't break, I have the methodology — and the personal understanding — to help.

How It Works

From First Contact
to Real Change.

Working with me is deliberately simple. No complicated intake processes. Just direct, focused work.

01

Apply for a Consultation

Submit a brief enquiry. I review it personally and respond within 24 hours. Not every enquiry leads to a session — I only work with people I believe I can genuinely help.

02

Book Your Assessment — €100

A proper 60–90 minute session: a full read on your situation and a written plan. Credited in full to your programme if you go ahead. No pressure, no obligation.

03

Personal Assessment & Plan

Your first full session. I understand your history, your triggers, and your goals. We build a structured programme tailored entirely to you.

04

Structured, Results-Focused Sessions

We work. Consistently, honestly, and with clear milestones. Most clients begin to notice real change within the first 4–6 sessions.

The Book

The Story Behind
the Specialist.

Never Give Up is Gary's personal account of addiction, darkness, and the journey back. It's honest, raw, and has helped thousands of readers feel less alone — and more certain that recovery is possible.

Practical frameworks drawn from CBT and lived experience that you can apply immediately

Client Results

What Changes When
You Work With a Specialist.

Real words from real clients.

★★★★★

Forty-plus years of numb cravings… almost gone. Not white-knuckled gone, just quiet, everyday peace.

★★★★★

Gary has transformed my mindset… my whole life has changed for the best.

★★★★★

Three months ago I spent €800 on a blowout weekend. This last weekend I put €800 away in savings. That's what working with Gary actually looks like.

★★★★★

A month sober and clean and that's thanks to Gary.

★★★★★

He believed in me even when I struggled to believe in myself… I can confidently say I'm not the same person I was when I started.

★★★★★

Gary has been a massive help in my recovery from alcoholism and depression… I was in a very dark place.

★★★★★

I released my first song on Spotify last week… something I never thought I'd be able to say. And Gary played an enormous role in that.

Based on Gary's own study of 400 cocaine users — the true cost of waiting is far greater than the cost of getting help.

The Programmes

A Programme, Not a Meter.

You don't need to disappear into €11,000 residential rehab. You need a structured programme, run privately around your life, with someone who's been exactly where you are. One clear path — no hourly maths.

Everyone starts with a €100 assessment. A proper 60–90 minute session — a full read on where you are, a written plan, and an honest answer on whether I'm the right fit. If you go on to a programme, the €100 comes straight off it.

Honest About Fit

This Is Not
For Everyone.

I work with a deliberately small number of clients. I'm direct about who I can genuinely help — and who I cannot.

  • People looking for a passive listening service
  • Those not ready to do honest, uncomfortable work
  • Anyone wanting quick fixes or magic solutions
  • People who aren't ready to commit to change

But if you're genuinely ready, this is exactly for you.

  • Professionals who need discretion and results
  • People tired of approaches that don't understand them
  • Those ready to do the real work, however hard
  • Anyone who wants a specialist, not a generalist
Questions

What You Need to Know.

Because cocaine addiction has a very specific psychology — the confidence it creates, the social world it inhabits, the shame it carries. I understand that world from the inside, not from a textbook. Generalist therapists can help; a specialist who has lived it helps differently.

Most clients notice a meaningful shift in thinking within the first 4–6 sessions. Lasting recovery from cocaine addiction typically takes 3–6 months of committed work. The early sessions focus on stabilisation — you will feel the difference quickly.

Absolutely. Every session is entirely private. The only legal exception — which applies to all therapists — involves immediate risk of serious harm. Many of my clients are professionals for whom discretion is non-negotiable. I treat it that way.

Yes. All sessions are available via secure video call. I work with clients across Ireland and internationally. Many high-achieving clients specifically prefer online for the privacy and flexibility it offers.

Because recovery isn't a handful of random hours — it's a structured piece of work with a beginning, middle and end. A named programme means you know exactly what you're getting, we both commit to seeing it through, and you get the between-session support and aftercare that actually make it stick. Next to €11,000 residential rehab, a €2,250 programme you do around your life is a fraction of the cost. Single sessions are still there at €150 if you'd rather start small.

A proper 60–90 minute session — not a sales call. I get a full picture of where you are, we talk honestly, and you leave with a written plan and a clear recommendation. If I'm not the right person to help, I'll tell you and point you somewhere that is. If you go on to a programme, the €100 comes straight off it.
