Association of Adolescent Psychotherapists and Counsellors in Ireland

Meeting the Need, Building Community
AAPCI was established in response to a pressing need: Ireland lacked a dedicated association for counsellors, psychotherapists, and supervisors who specialise in working with adolescents and their families. We recognised this gap and founded AAPCI to provide a collaborative space that unites rather than divides.

Excellence Through Connection
We are a community-driven organisation that welcomes professionals from diverse approaches and perspectives. Our mission is to be a beacon of excellence where therapists can feel a true sense of belonging while accessing quality training tailored to the nuanced and ever-evolving field of adolescent care.

Supporting Practitioners and Families
For professionals, AAPCI offers opportunities for connection, growth, and recognition within a vibrant network. For the public, we provide a trusted directory of qualified, highly trained practitioners, ensuring adolescents and families have access to the highest standards of care.

Join Us in Something Groundbreaking
We invite counsellors and psychotherapists across Ireland to join us and be part of something truly pioneering. Together, we are building an organisation that will set the standard for adolescent therapy in Ireland, creating a brighter future for young people and their families.
