About Liam
Dr Liam Reilly offers help for a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, grief, addiction and relationship or intimacy-related issues. He also supports people facing parenting strain, sleep or eating difficulties, ADHD, and career or life transitions. Dr Reilly uses straightforward, practical methods and explains options in plain language so people can make choices that suit them.
He is registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and has around 11 years of clinical experience across NHS, personal, corporate and educational settings.
Background and approach
His background includes training and supervising other professionals and running a clinical service in Belfast. Sessions are collaborative and person-centred. He aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk through problems and try techniques that fit their life.
He draws on a number of established approaches to help people manage symptoms and build skills. Common techniques used include cognitive-behavioural methods to spot and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour, and strategies from acceptance-based work to reduce struggle with difficult feelings.
He also uses attachment-focused ideas to look at how past relationships shape current patterns and EMDR as one of the tools for working with traumatic memories. People can expect clear explanations, short practical tasks between sessions when helpful, and a focus on what they want to achieve. He works in English and accepts clients from the United Kingdom and internationally.

Online support
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and helps people commit to actions that reflect their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses short practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it often helps with anxiety, low mood and sleep problems. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people identify and change repeating styles of relating, which can be helpful for intimacy and communication issues.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss your goals and preferences and together you will try methods that seem to fit. That collaborative process helps tailor sessions so techniques are useful in everyday life rather than purely theoretical.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and exercises, phone calls suit lower bandwidth or hands-free check-ins, live chat can work for shorter updates, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options give flexibility to fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping focus on practical steps and skill building.
