Healing Through the Feminine:
Therapy for Perfectionism, Trauma, and Transformation

I offer depth-oriented psychotherapy for women who find themselves at a threshold

If you are navigating codependency, perfectionism, motherhood, addictive patterns, relational or spiritual trauma

This is a sacred return to your intuitive voice,
your desires, and your wholeness

About

I am a psychoanalytic psychotherapist licensed in the State of New York and in private practice. As a lifelong student of meaning and mystery, I come to this work with reverence for the inner life. My formation as a therapist has been shaped by well over a decade of engagement with depth psychology, the sacred feminine, and my own embodied path through the complex landscape of motherhood, grief, and transformation. I concieve of therapy as a modern rite of passage—a place where we come to shed skins and emerge anew.

I hold a Masters of Science in Clinical Psychology from the City University of New York and a Bachelors of Art in Cultural Studies and Comparative Literature from the University of Minnesota. I did my post graduate Jungian training at the Chiron Institute in Minneapolis. Born and raised in Ireland, I now live with my husband and two sons in New York.

Weekly therapy sessions allow a confidential held space for you to turn towards what is arising in you. This is for people at the threshold of change to deepen intimacy with themselves and their lives.

My approach

In one on one psychotherapy, I work intuitively to support a deepening of trust as we traverse the inner landscape of your psyche. There is space for your unfolding, honoring the slow, sacred process of remembering who you are beneath the roles and beliefs that you've depended upon to stay safe. This isn't about simply shifting your mindset, but a deeper kind of healing—one that honours your voice, your body, your unconscious wisdom, and the parts of you that have been silenced, hidden or exiled, and in turn creating loving conditions for these parts to return and be felt and expressed.

In our sessions, we will move gently and intentionally, attuning to both what’s painful and what’s emerging. We may explore dreams, relational patterns, and the stories held in your nervous system. We may also draw on archetypes, myths, and symbols that mirror your inner journey. In doing so we'll explore the deeper patterns that have shaped you—not to pathologize, but to understand, to grieve, and to transform.

I typically encourage weekly sessions for the initial phase of therapy to build a sense of trust and to deepen the momentum of our work together through consistency. If this is unrealistic for you let me know and we can discuss what will best serve you.
Different rates may apply should we decide upon longer sessions or less frequent sessions such as bi weekly or monthly.
I reserve a limited number of reduced- fee slots which are available based on circumstances and availability in my practice. Please inquire to see if you may be eligible.
I am an out-of-network provider, which means I do not bill insurance directly. However, if you live in New York State I can provide a monthly “superbill” that you may submit to your insurance for possible reimbursement. Many insurance plans offer out-of-network benefits.
Please verify your benefits by asking:
- Does my plan cover out-of-network mental health or behavioral health services?
- What is my deductible, and has it been met?
- What is the reimbursement rate for each session?
Please note, insurers typically require a mental health diagnosis to reimburse for services which I can provide.
I ask for 24 hours' notice to cancel or reschedule a session. Cancellations with less than 24 hours' notice will be charged the full session fee, except in cases of emergency.
The first session is a chance for us to get to know each other and explore what is bringing you in, what you're longing for and any questions you have about therapy. We will begin drafting a sketch of your history and biography that we will continue to fill in over the following sessions.
This depends on your individual desires and needs. Some people come wishing to have support through a specific life transition while others desire deeper, ongoing work to unravel trauma and heal attachment wounds through relational work.
Ultimately, it is your role to decide when therapy feels complete. I believe that the individuation process (becoming more fully oneself) is a lifelong process. I invite you to have this conversation with me as time goes on and to explore together when you’re feeling ready to move on.
