About Ciaran
Ciaran McNamee, MA Cand. | Intern Counsellor | Anxiety, OCD & Emotional Regulation — North Vancouver and virtual counselling
Ciaran McNamee is an Intern Counsellor at Bach Counselling Group, completing his Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology. He works with adults and young adults navigating anxiety, OCD, emotional regulation, existential concerns, and patterns that persist despite genuine effort to change them.
Before entering the counselling field, Ciaran spent a decade working as a data scientist and software engineer. He holds a Master of Science in Computational Physics and a Bachelor of Science in Theoretical Physics with Honours from Trinity College Dublin — an academic background that reflects both the rigour he brings to complex problems and the analytical precision he applies to his clinical work.
His clinical training integrates Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, and an existential orientation, applied within a somatic-informed, trauma-aware framework. Somatic-informed practice means attending to how emotions and stress are held in the body — working with physical sensation and nervous system responses alongside thought and behaviour. He holds certification in Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST). Prior to joining BCG, Ciaran founded and facilitated an experiential counselling group for two years, developing practical group facilitation skills alongside his clinical training. He brings lived experience of OCD recovery to his work, informing both his clinical approach and his conviction that change is genuinely possible in patterns that have resisted effort for years.
Ciaran is completing his internship at Bach Counselling Group in North Vancouver.
