Therapy, Creativity, and Sacred Transformation for Women in Becoming

Individual therapy for women ready to go deep.

This isn't your typical therapy. We work at the intersection of psychology and spirituality, creating a cocoon-like space where your transformation can unfold naturally. Whether you're processing a major life transition, integrating a neurodivergent diagnosis, or answering a spiritual call you can't quite name—we create the protected environment your metamorphosis requires.

Just as the caterpillar needs the safety and privacy of the cocoon to become the butterfly, you need sacred space where you can dissolve old patterns and allow your authentic self to emerge without the pressure of performing for the outside world.

You're done pretending everything's fine. And honestly? That's where real healing begins.

You're 40-something, and the life you built no longer fits—you're wondering if it ever really did. Your late-life ADHD diagnosis explains so much, but now you're left with new questions: Who are you when you're not performing? What does authenticity even look like?

You're smart, creative, and spiritually hungry, but something has cracked open, and now you're not sure who you are underneath all the roles you've been playing.

What if you're not falling apart? What if you're in your cocoon?

That dark, quiet space where the most profound transformation happens. Where caterpillars completely dissolve before becoming butterflies. Where the old form must die for the new to emerge. From the outside, it looks like nothing is happening—or worse, like something is going wrong. But inside the cocoon, the most sacred work is taking place.

I'm Maggie, and I work with women who are done masking their true nature and ready to trust the wisdom of their sensitivity, their intensity, their deep need for meaning. This is where psychology meets spirituality. Where your struggles become your strengths. Where your becoming is honored as sacred work.

You're Not Broken. You're In Your Cocoon.

Inside, there's overwhelm, confusion, maybe even a quiet grief for the life you're leaving behind. To everyone watching from the outside, it looks like you're falling apart. But what if this dark, quiet space you're in is actually sacred? What if the dissolution you're experiencing isn't destruction—it's transformation?

In nature, the caterpillar doesn't just grow wings and become a butterfly. It completely dissolves first. It becomes what scientists call "butterfly soup"—unrecognizable, formless, in complete breakdown before breakthrough. The cocoon provides the safe, private space for this profound metamorphosis to occur.

Maybe you're here because:

  • Your marriage has ended and you're questioning everything you thought you knew about love—and yourself

  • You've received a late-life ADHD or autism diagnosis and it's reshaping how you see everything, including your spiritual path

  • You're in perimenopause, feeling unlike yourself and craving practices that honor this profound transition

  • Your children are growing up or leaving home, and you're wondering what's next for your soul's purpose

  • You're burned out from your career and seeking work that feels more aligned with who you're becoming

  • You're grieving a parent or still caregiving, grappling with deep questions about life, death, and meaning

  • Your friendships feel shallow or are fading, and you're craving deeper, more authentic connections

  • You're questioning your identity, your desires, your place in the world—and maybe your inherited beliefs too

  • You've had a health scare and want to reconnect with your body's wisdom

  • You're untangling family dynamics or trauma, including religious or spiritual wounds

  • You're creatively starved, constantly saying "I used to be creative but..." and ready to excavate that buried part of yourself

  • You're having vivid dreams or strange synchronicities and want to understand what they're telling you

  • You've moved away from traditional religion but still hunger for something spiritual and meaningful

  • You feel drawn to ritual, ceremony, or mystical practices, but don't know where to start

You're in the right place. There is space here for your becoming, your questioning, your sacred unraveling.

My Approach: Where Psychology Meets Spirituality

This isn't your typical therapy. We work at the intersection of psychology and spirituality, creating a cocoon-like space where your transformation can unfold naturally. Whether you're processing a major life transition, integrating a neurodivergent diagnosis, or answering a spiritual call you can't quite name—we create the protected environment your metamorphosis requires.

I See Your Cocoon Time as Sacred

What others might label as breakdown, midlife crisis, or instability, I see as spiritual metamorphosis. This isn't falling apart—it's the necessary dissolution that precedes transformation. Just as the caterpillar must completely dissolve to become the butterfly, you're in the sacred space of becoming.

The cocoon provides safety, privacy, and the perfect conditions for profound change. Our work together creates that same protected space where you can undergo your transformation without the pressure of having to look "put together" for the outside world.

I Honor Your Neurodivergent Nature

Your ADHD, autism, or high sensitivity isn't a disorder to be managed—it's a different way of experiencing the world that often includes profound gifts of intuition, creativity, and spiritual awareness. Your "too much" is just right.

I Trust Your Inner Wisdom

Your body holds wisdom. Your dreams matter. Your mystical experiences are valid information. We work through multiple pathways—words, images, movement, breath, ritual—because healing happens through your whole system, not just your thinking mind.

I Believe in Your Sacred Timing

Transformation doesn't follow artificial schedules. We work at the pace of trust, not the speed of productivity culture. Your becoming has its own sacred timing.

What I Offer

  • One-on-One Sessions

    focused on curiosity, clarity, and compassion—honoring both your human experience and your spiritual seeking

  • Creative Practices

    as spiritual practice—simple art, writing, or somatic tools to access your inner wisdom

  • Dream Work and Active Imagination

    exploring messages from your unconscious and learning to dialogue with your psyche's deeper wisdom

  • Ritual and Ceremony Guidance

    creating meaningful practices that honor your transitions

  • Nonjudgmental Space

    where you're free to be real, not performative—whether you're exploring mystical experiences or just trying to get through Tuesday

Why I'm the Right Guide for You

I'm a licensed therapist, art therapist, spiritual seeker, and fellow traveler on the path of becoming. My own late-life ADHD diagnosis, spiritual awakening, and creative reclamation inform everything I do.

I understand what it's like to:

  • Feel fundamentally different while trying to fit into neurotypical expectations

  • Experience mystical moments in the midst of mundane suburban life

  • Have everyone worry about you when you're actually waking up for the first time

  • Rediscover your creativity after years of being "practical"

  • Navigate major life transitions while questioning everything you thought you knew about yourself

I understand the spiritual dimension of neurodivergence.

Your sensitivity, your intensity, your need for meaning—these aren't just neurological traits. They're often spiritual gifts. I work with the understanding that healing your relationship with your ADHD is also about reclaiming your authentic spiritual nature.

I see your "too much" as just right.

Your emotional intensity, your need for depth, your sensitivity to energy and environment—in this space, these aren't problems to be managed. They're aspects of your authentic self to be honored and integrated.
