We are looking for counsellors and psychotherapists working face-to-face with adults, and/or couples. All therapists should have access to a suitable premises where they can see clients. The rate of pay per therapy session is €60 for individuals and €70 for couples.
Please only apply if your practice is based in, or is very close to one of the areas listed above. Experience working with trauma and bereavement necessary.
All counsellors and psychotherapists on our register must be professionally accredited and fully insured, and will be subject to Garda Vetting. Please ensure that you meet the criteria before applying.
Clients are allocated to counsellors/psychotherapists based suitability/compatibility and proximity, as we try to ensure that accessing psychotherapy is as convenient for our clients as possible.
Working with our clients can be incredibly rewarding. If you would like to join the FirstLight Register of Psychotherapists to help us to expand our service and provide support to more families, please email your CV to Niamh at clinicaladmin@firstlight.ie including your practice location(s).
