Alice O’Brien and Sharon Bailey are two local ladies from the Duhallow area. Alice is from Banteer and Sharon from Kilcorney.

In the 23 years since, the ladies have remained close friends, working together for many years as nurses in Cork. Their career paths have taken similar directions into post- graduate diploma and Masters in Psychotherapy and Addiction.

For many years Alice and Sharon talked about opening up a clinic that could offer all their expertise to anyone who needed therapy, addiction counselling or a safe place to discuss their problems. In early 2022, the opportunity arrived and the ladies opened Churchview Psychotherapy in Church Street, Millsteet.

Centrally located in Millstreet town, this discreet service offers many different types of services based on both ladies having a unique set of qualifications.
