With over 15 years’ experience as a therapist and supervisor, I offer a warm, supportive space where you can explore what’s happening in your life without fear of judgment or pressure to be anyone other than yourself. My practice is neuroaffirmative and inclusive, welcoming both neurodivergent and neurotypical adults.
You might be coming to therapy because you’re feeling stressed, anxious, or low, or because you’re struggling to manage emotions that can sometimes feel overwhelming. Perhaps you’re healing from trauma, navigating a major life change, or wanting to improve your relationships and feel more connected to others.

Hi there, I'm Aisling.
I work with people who are feeling overwhelmed, stretched, or not quite like themselves anymore. You might be feeling anxious, low, or stuck in patterns that are hard to shift, or finding yourself reacting in ways that don’t feel like you.
I offer a calm, supportive space to slow things down, make sense of what’s going on, and help you feel more steady, understood, and able to move forward in a way that feels right for you. I specialise in the areas of grief, depression, neurodivergence and anxiety but have significant experience of working in many other areas too.

You may be feeling lost in your relationship, overwhelmed by emotion, or stuck in patterns you can’t seem to change. Perhaps you’ve lost yourself while caring for others, struggle to communicate, or long for deeper connection but don’t know where to begin. My clients often want clarity, steadiness, and a healthier way of relating — both to themselves and to the people they love. They’re ready to understand their patterns, strengthen their voice, and feel more secure and grounded in their relationships.

I help people who feel overwhelmed by stress, caught in anxiety, or weighed down by low mood. Many clients come to therapy wanting to feel more like themselves again or to understand why things feel so difficult. My work is about creating space to explore these feelings safely and at your own pace.

I provide receipts for health insurance and am registered as an approved psychotherapist by Laya, VHI, etc
When we are suffering we tend to look at all that is wrong in our lives. We sometimes make judgements and assumptions about ourselves or our situations that focus mainly on the negative. We each have developed ways of being in the world that have enabled us to cope with whatever challenges we have had to face. These coping strategies become our defence mechanisms and are often developed by us at an early age when we had few resources. They can sometimes create negative patterns of relating to others and the world around us and become barriers to intimate or professional relationships.
