“I have never cried harder or gone so in depth about my life in one hour. She was very inquisitive and knew exactly what she was talking about. I look forward to my next meeting with her.”

Getting to know Holly Ferrell
I view therapy as a collaborative process where we work together to navigate your life challenges—whether it’s managing anxiety, grief, depression, relationship issues, substance use, or major life transitions. I’m particularly passionate about supporting you during transitional phases of life, including launching adulthood, becoming new parents, and couples/relationship issues.
I believe that therapy provides a unique space to explore the fullness of what it means to be human—the highs and lows, the struggles and triumphs—and to grow from these experiences. I offer culturally sensitive, affirming care to all, including the LGBTQ+ community, and bring specialized experience in maternal health. My personal experience with motherhood enriches my practice, allowing me to bring a deeper level of empathy and understanding.
With a strong emphasis on empathy, compassion, and respect for your unique life experiences, I draw from psychodynamic, psychoanalytic, and attachment-based theories, integrating emotionally focused and trauma-informed care. As a certified yoga instructor, I also incorporate mind-body practices to help deepen the therapeutic process and support overall wellness.
I hold a Master’s in Social Work from New York University and a Bachelor’s degree from the University of Missouri, which have provided me with a solid foundation to support diverse clients with professionalism and care.
Whether you’re new to therapy or seeking a deeper exploration of yourself, I’m here to support you in achieving your goals for growth, self-understanding, and creating a life that feels aligned with your true self.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

In the initial sessions, she and clients will create a safe, non-judgmental space to explore the client’s concerns, history, and goals.
