Glosna House

Glosna House At Glosna we offer a wide range of psychotherapy support services alongside massage & holistic health We offer an experience, not just an appointment.

Glosna House is a centre of excellence for support services & has been in operation for over 10 years. It was founded by Registered and Accredited Psychotherapist Marie Byrne who is passionate about the individuals ability to heal & evolve given the right support & environment. We are all unique in our make up and so one size does not fit all. With this in mind Marie believes that finding the right therapist is an integral part of the healing process. Marie's goal for Glosna was simple; to bring together a team of highly qualified & professional people, offering a wide range of support services, in a healing & welcoming environment. In March 2010 she opened the doors for the first time & 10 years on, she continues to manage the centre with the support of her family and the Glosna Team. Our Support Centre is a haven of peace & tranquillity offering our clients a truly welcoming experience. Our private treatment cottages are nestled in nature, surrounded by trees, flower beds, gardens, plant pots, outdoor seating areas and even a calming stream. The beautiful setting combined with our team of highly qualified therapists is what makes Glosna House the unique centre it has grown to be. Our hope is that we provide every visitor with a nurturing space in which to grow their potential. With this in mind & honouring the individual, we offer a wide range of therapies, treatments, experiences, workshops, training courses & wonderfully colourful people in the hope our visitors find what feels right for them. We would love to welcome you . . .

✨ Lymphatic Drainage - The Glow & Flow Package ✨ 2 hours • €125

🌲A great gift idea.

Your lymphatic system is your body’s unsung hero - quietly working to move fluid, filter waste, support immunity, and keep everything in flow. When it slows down, you can feel heavy, puffy, or tired. When it’s supported… you glow.

Our Glow & Flow Package is a deeply nurturing two-hour experience combining:
💧 A full-body lymphatic drainage massage to stimulate circulation, reduce fluid retention, and release sluggishness.
🌸 A lymphatic facial to enhance skin radiance, reduce puffiness, and promote natural glow.

Held in our holistic wooden cabin under the trees at Glosna House, this treatment is the ultimate way to feel lighter, clearer, and beautifully grounded.

🎁 Available as a Gift Voucher - the perfect gift of wellness and calm this Christmas (or a well-deserved treat for yourself).

Reduces swelling and puffiness
Supports detoxification and immunity

Let me be very clear: I have zero tolerance for online bullying. Zero. NONE.

I run one of Ireland’s largest private mental health centres. I’m a psychotherapist, a woman, a mother, a daughter, a partner, an aunt, a sister, a friend - and I post videos talking about ways to make mental health support more accessible, along with other important topics. And every so often, I get a keyboard warrior. Misogyny, judgment, cruelty hiding behind fake profiles. Comments on my face, my hair, my eyebrows, my body, my qualifications… you name it.

Do these comments sting? Absolutely. I’m human. But I don’t let it define me. And I always call it out - because if I don’t, it just gives permission for abuse to continue.

Here’s the hard truth: online abuse is real, and it’s scary. Teens and young people we work with experience it every day, and the impact is very real - anxiety, depression, withdrawal, long-term damage - especially if it’s left unchecked. If you’re being targeted, don’t suffer in silence. Tell someone you trust what’s happening. Reach out. Protect yourself. Speak up.

And to the keyboard warriors out there - shame on you. Yes, seriously. Stop hiding behind your screens to spread cruelty. Think about the people you’re attacking. There are real humans reading your words - your small act of cruelty has very real consequences. Here’s a tip: being a keyboard bully is not a personality trait. It’s pathetic. And yes, sad.

I will continue to post, continue to speak, and continue to call out abuse whenever I see it. No one deserves to be shamed or bullied online - or in person. And I will always protect the people who come to us for help.

If you’re struggling with online abuse, reach out. Tell someone. Talk to a professional. It’s okay to feel hurt. It’s not okay to stay silent.
Love Marie

♥️Help Little Louie♥️
Louie is only about six months old, and he’s the sweetest, gentlest little soul. He climbed into the engine of a van to keep warm, and when the engine started, the fan belt struck him. Terrified and in pain, he crawled deeper into the van and hid where no one could reach him.

It took almost two days to rescue him. Joe, the mechanic, and his wife were incredible, checking on him constantly, listening for his cries, trying everything they could. He wanted help so badly, but he was too frightened to come out. When he finally went into the trap for food, they brought him straight to the vet.

Once he was stabilised, he came to my very dear friend Susan at The Cat Sanctuary, Glosnas charity partner. And when she saw him properly, she had a moment where her heart nearly broke. His injuries were so severe, and she knew it would be a huge amount of work.

Her vet, who is wonderful and kind and never pushes for giving up, gently said that we had to consider what might be best for him if things didn’t improve. But the moment Susan said, “I want to try - I think he deserves a chance,” she backed her 100%. She understood the scale of what Susan was taking on, but she supported her without hesitation.

https://catsanctuary.ie/donateshop #!/Help-Louie-the-Kitten/p/637243049

His Injuries

Once we got more X-rays and a full look at him, it was even worse than expected.
Louie has a serious elbow fracture and deep infected wounds on his hind leg. Some of his stitches have opened again, so right now surgery isn’t possible — we need to get the infection under control first.

So, for now, it’s:
• strong antibiotics
• pain relief
• daily wound cleaning with medical Manuka honey
• crate rest
• and as much comfort and reassurance as I can give him

It’s a lot, and Susan has definitely had moments where she wondered if she had taken on too much - but then he looks up at her and she knows without a doubt that he wants to live. He’s trying.
And as long as he’s trying, Susan at The Cat Sanctuary will be right there with him.

If You Can Help...

His vet bills are growing quickly, and he’ll need more treatment as we go. If you can spare even €5, it truly helps.

⚠️ A message to parents and carers - please take a few minutes to read.
From Marie at Glosna House.

Lately there’s been growing concern about a violent online network called “764” - a group that’s been grooming, exploiting & harming children through online gaming and chat platforms like Roblox, Discord, and others. It’s being investigated internationally for extreme violence & abuse.

As a parent myself - my daughter is seven - this shakes me to my core. She’s not allowed on Roblox or similar platforms, but I still worry about how easily children can be reached online. So I want to share this, not to frighten, but to inform & protect.

Children are being targeted by people who pretend to be their friends, who use games & private chats to build trust & then slowly pull them into dangerous situations. Some are being encouraged to self-harm, share images, or even hurt others.
It’s horrifying & sadly, it’s happening quietly - often right in our homes, behind closed doors, on screens we assume are harmless.

Please, take a few minutes NOW to check:

👍Who your child is talking to online.

👍What games and apps they use (especially those with private chats).

👍Whether they seem secretive, withdrawn, or unusually anxious.

👍Any unexplained injuries or talk about “challenges,” “missions,” or “groups.”

If you ever suspect something isn’t right - trust your instinct!!!
You don’t need to understand the full story to step in.
Open the conversation gently. Let them know they’re never in trouble for telling you the truth.

At Glosna House, we work every day with children, teens and families who are navigating complex emotions and experiences and we’re here to support you too.

We can’t protect children from everything in the world, but by staying aware, connected, and curious, we protect them from facing it alone. 💛
