About Dr. Sue Redmond

I’m Dr. Sue Redmond, an Integrative Somatic Trauma Therapist, Somatic EMDR Practitioner, Therapeutic Yoga Teacher, and Education Consultant. With over 20 years of experience, I’ve had the privilege of working with children, adolescents, and adults to foster healing, resilience, and growth. My academic journey includes a PhD in Youth Leadership, Resilience, and Social Support, a Master’s in Health Promotion, and a BSc in Pharmacology & Psychology.

My Mission

Whether I’m working 1-1 with individuals, guiding yoga students, or collaborating with organisations, my mission is to create safe spaces for healing, connection, and transformation. My work blends science, somatic wisdom, and creativity to support people in moving beyond trauma, building resilience, and unlocking their potential.

1-1 Therapy and Support

Integrative Somatic Trauma Therapy

Trauma impacts the body as much as the mind, and healing must address both. Using techniques informed by leaders in trauma therapy—like Dr. Peter Levine and Dr. Bessel van der Kolk—I help clients reconnect with their bodies, process unprocessed emotions, and restore a sense of safety and balance.

Somatic therapy can help:

• Release trapped emotions and stress responses.
• Build emotional resilience and self-regulation.
• Cultivate a deeper connection to self and others.

Through gentle, body-centered approaches, I guide individuals on a journey to heal trauma at its roots and reclaim their inner strength.

Somatic EMDR

Somatic EMDR combines bilateral stimulation with somatic techniques to address trauma held in the body. This method is particularly effective for clients navigating PTSD, anxiety, or unresolved trauma. By integrating body awareness and movement, Somatic EMDR supports deeper healing and a sense of empowerment.

Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP)

As an SSP provider, I offer this innovative, evidence-based tool to help calm the nervous system and reduce anxiety. By using filtered music to stimulate the vagus nerve, SSP promotes a sense of safety, emotional resilience, and connection.

Yoga for Healing and Wellness

Therapeutic Yoga

Therapeutic Yoga is a personalised, gentle approach to wellness. Whether you’re managing stress, recovering from trauma, or seeking greater balance, I tailor each session to your unique needs. Combining mindful movement, breathwork, and relaxation techniques, this practice offers a safe and nurturing space to heal and grow.

Yoga Classes

I also offer a range of yoga classes, from beginners and gentle yoga to intermediate and power yoga, including sessions with infrared heating for deeper relaxation and detoxification. 

Retreats

I also offer monthly 1-day silent retreats and longer retreats that combine a blend of mindfulness, compassion, yoga, breathwork and soamtic release for deep healing, rejuvenation and growth. 

Consulting and Organisational Work

With decades of experience designing and delivering programs, I partner with organisations to develop impactful training, resources, and strategies. My expertise includes:

• Professional Training: Equipping social workers, youth workers, teachers, and others with skills to support children and young people.
• Program Development: Creating resources like Tusla’s Child & Youth Participation Strategy and Youth Work Ireland’s Gender-Based Violence Prevention Programme.
• Team Development and Leadership: Facilitating workshops on leadership, conflict resolution, and team dynamics to strengthen organisations from within.

A Little More About Me

When I’m not working, you’ll find me surfing, creating art, or practicing meditation. I’m also a blackbelt in Tae Kwon Do, a singer, and a proud mom to twin girls and two dogs.

I’d love to connect and explore how I can support you—whether through therapy, yoga, or consulting work. Together, we can create the change you’re seeking.
