Michael Mulvihill
Author | Psychologist | Martial Artist | Hypnotherapist

I am a multi-disciplinary creator with a unique blend of psychological expertise, creative storytelling, and a passion for martial arts. With a BA in Psychology, an MA in Addiction Studies, a Postgraduate Diploma in Psychotherapy, and certifications in Hypnotherapy, I’ve dedicated my career to exploring the human mind and understanding the complexities of human behavior.

As an author, I write horror and dystopian fiction, including my novels Siberian Hellhole and Diabolis of Dublin. I’m currently working on a dystopian novel and a vampire fiction project (Ethagoria), blending psychological insights with chilling narratives.

Outside of my writing, I hold a black belt in Kenpo and practice martial arts in a way that suits my body’s changing needs due to osteoarthritis. I believe in the power of discipline, adaptability, and consistency—values that shape both my personal and professional life.

I’m also an active content creator, sharing my thoughts on psychoanalysis, horror fiction, and creativity through my YouTube channel, TikTok, and blog (Dark Days Dawning).

Feel free to connect or reach out if you're interested in discussing psychology, horror, or any of my current projects.
