FirstLight Expanding Counsellors Register
Demand for FirstLight’s services in 2021 was the highest since the organisation was established 45 years ago, with 207 families supported nationwide. We are predicting a similar, if not higher, number in 2022.
For this reason, we are looking to expand the number of psychotherapists on the FirstLight Counsellors Register across the following counties:
| Mayo | Carlow |
| Kilkenny | Westmeath |
| Athlone | Donegal |
| Kerry | Meath |
| Cork | Galway |
| Offaly | Cavan |
| Monaghan | North Dublin |
| Louth | Wicklow |
| Leitrim |
All Psychotherapists on the Counsellors Register must be professionally accredited, fully insured, and Garda vetted before commencing counselling for our service.
