Great to meet you!

Dr. Ciara's professional life as a psychologist spans 2 cultures and brings almost 30 years of clinical experience in a variety of settings, including as a Psychologist in Community Care in Ireland working with children and families, working with underserved populations including veterans for a Santa Barbara Non Profit and in Private Practice. Her overarching focus as a psychologist is on helping clients become more conscious and hence more whole, more aware and more grounded in who they are.

My approach to therapy

I work holistically. I am interested in the interconnection of mind, body, spirit and emotion. I bring a Jungian lens to my work and often work with dreams.

What you can expect from me

The first session will allow us to establish a baseline of where you are at, involve a review of your life and establish the areas of your life that you wish to work on. We use the first session as a spring board for our broader therapeutic work that will take place over the following weeks and months.
