OUR TEAM
Meet our team of passionate and dedicated professionals:
I’m Kate, one of the senior educational psychologists in Éirim. Being dyslexic myself I’ve always had a keen interest in helping people understand their own personal learning style to help them achieve to the best of their potential in school or work. If you come to the office you might be lucky enough to meet my little border terrier Roxy in the office as she comes in sometimes and cheers everyone up!

Geraldine is our Office Manager and she is the first person you will make contact with in Éirim. Geraldine’s working life has mainly been in an office environment but did divert into a caring role for a period of time which gave her a greater empathy and understanding of other people’s needs. In her spare time, Geraldine likes to knit and is very proud that she recently knitted an Aran jumper for her teenage daughter (!!). Geraldine loves to travel with family and friends and cycling, reading and Netflix also keep her busy. When her homelife allows, Geraldine fosters dogs.
