Two months ago, we launched a mental health company in Ireland to help tackle a growing need: access to affordable, private psychological care in Ireland.

We operate as a social enterprise, meaning our profits are reinvested directly into expanding access, training practitioners, and delivering high-quality mental health services to those who often fall between the cracks of the public system.

Unfortunately, our clinic in Nenagh Co. Tipperary was vandalised last week. The damage has been disheartening—not just to our team, but to the community members who rely on our services.

But we’re still here. We’re still open. And we’re still committed to making therapy and assessments more accessible—especially for conditions like autism, ADHD, and complex mental health needs.

If you believe in mental health access, please help us share this message. We’re open to partnerships, referrals, and conversations with anyone who wants to help make Ireland’s mental health system stronger and more inclusive.
