About the Therapist Hello! I’m Aisling (pronounced “Ash-ling”) Conaty, MA, LCPC, ALMFT. I provide therapy for adults and couples looking to build awareness, improve communication, and find balance between independence and connection.

My work is grounded in warmth, curiosity, and transparency. Clients describe my approach as compassionate yet direct—supporting insight while maintaining momentum toward personal goals. I work collaboratively to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore challenges and develop practical skills for real change.
“You don’t have to do it alone—therapy can be the space where clarity, connection, and courage grow.”
Aisling helps clients strengthen communication, deepen self-understanding, and shift unhelpful patterns—while honoring each person’s values, identity, and lived experience.
