I am a dedicated mental health clinician committed to helping patients better understand themselves, navigate life’s challenges, and create meaningful, lasting change. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that each person has the capacity for growth when given the right support and tools.
I have a background in working with individuals across the lifespan, with particular experience supporting patients with anxiety, ADHD, trauma-related concerns, emotional regulation difficulties, and relationship challenges. I also work with patients who struggle with self-worth, perfectionism, and patterns of self-criticism, helping them build a more compassionate and balanced relationship with themselves.
I earned my degree in Clinical Psychology at University of Hartford, and I continue to engage in ongoing education to stay current with best practices in mental health care. My goal is to provide thoughtful, individualized care that supports patients in building resilience, clarity, and a stronger sense of self.
In therapy with me you will find that I emphasize acceptance of emotions, reframing negative thinking, and offering self-grace. I try to help you dig deeper to get the root issue that is causing you to be different than the way you want to be.
We are talking about you and your life, things that matter so I am open and non-judging, relaxed, and very real.

I’m Dr. Moya O’Leary, PsyD, LPC, a licensed therapist specializing in perinatal and maternal mental health. I help women and families navigate the emotional challenges of pregnancy, postpartum adjustment, fertility struggles, and pregnancy loss. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices like CBT and trauma-informed care. I believe therapy should feel supportive, practical, and tailored to your real life — not a one-size-fits-all process.

I am a licensed clinical social worker in Connecticut. I offer a safe and understanding space for adults facing anxiety, life transitions and grief.
Something brought you here today. Maybe you're carrying something heavy that's hard to name. Maybe a relationship isn't working the way you hoped. Maybe life shifted in a way you weren't prepared for and you haven't felt like yourself since. Whatever it is — you're in the right place.
I work with individuals and couples navigating reproductive health, life transitions, and relationships. I specialize in infertility, pregnancy loss, and postpartum adjustment, as well as the moments when life leaves you feeling stuck, disconnected, or not quite yourself. With couples, I focus on communication, intimacy, and rebuilding trust and connection after rupture.
