Counselling in Limerick

Sometimes life can feel overwhelming and it can be hard to know who to talk to, and what to say. Does this feel familiar to you? My main aim is to listen with empathy and to form a deep relationship within which healing can occur. I will endeavour to understand so that you feel heard and will create a safe space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings and experiences fully.

Your mental health is as important and unique as your physical health. The two are tightly intertwined, what affects one often has an impact on the other. Life can be full of challenges and obstacles that can sometimes feel overwhelming and it's perfectly okay to seek a little extra help to navigate through them. Counselling is a space where you can open up about your thoughts, feelings, and experiences without judgment.

Hi, I'm Aimee. I'm a qualified Counsellor and Psychotherapist and an accredited member of IACP. I am a therapist who offers honesty, empathy, acceptance, congruence, and many more. Having experienced a wide range of issues such as anxiety, addiction, self-esteem, bereavement, depression, relationships, stress, suicide intervention, sexual issues, sexual assaults, and more. I offer a therapeutic counseling approach tailored to the individual needs of the client.

I help my clients explore and understand what they are experiencing and how it is impacting their emotional, physical and mental wellbeing. During therapy, I will help them to develop the skills and behaviours to find a way to cope with their life challenges and find their direction in their life. My extensive studies in psychology, psychotherapy and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) enable me to approach each client holistically and tailor the counselling approach to their individual needs. I apply an integrative approach to therapy that acknowledges the unique nature of the individual.

From a Theroethical viewpoint while my core approach is Person Centered and largely inspired by the teaching of Dr Carl Rogers, In keeping with this approach my work is largely motivated by my belief that each of us is capable of reaching our own potential if given the right direction, thus healing ourselves. Being an Integrative Therapist I also have the option of drawing on a number of Therapies depending on the clients’ needs. I find that people come to therapy for help for a variety of reasons throughout life. Some come for just a few sessions to talk about a particular issue they may have while others come more long term.

It is impossible to tell you exactly what your therapy process will be like, as you are unique, with your own experience, strengths and difficulties. Good therapy will be tailored to you and your individual situation. That said, in all models of therapeutic work I will work with you to define your goals and to develop the steps you will take to achieve those goals in therapy. Your therapeutic process will not only focus on your current situation and experiences, but also on the internal patterns that may be contributing to how you are feeling.
