Pearl Brock, PhD

Pearl Brock is a PhD researcher whose work explores the intersection of Jungian and post-Jungian thought, therapeutic writing, and narrative exploration as pathways toward individuation. Her doctoral research focuses on the use of fairy tale writing within psychotherapy as a means of engaging the shadow and fostering transformation. A Consultant Clinical Psychotherapist, Pearl is the Clinical Director of Think Well Psychotherapy Clinic in Mullingar and the Founder of the IAPP, an initiative dedicated to advancing excellence in psychodynamic psychotherapy. She teaches ethics and psychotherapy, and also supports undergraduate students in their academic development as a research supervisor. In addition, she works as a dream analyst, bringing a Jungian-informed approach to the symbolic material of the unconscious in clinical practice. Pearl holds a QQI Level 9 qualification in Teaching and Learning in Higher Education. Her clinical career spans over two decades and encompasses extensive experience with vulnerable and complex populations. She has worked across forensic contexts, with LGBTQ+ communities, neurodivergent individuals, and those living with profound trauma and shame. Her practice is grounded in an integrative psychodynamic approach, deeply rooted in symbol, story, and soul.
