The conviction that conscious and unconscious ways of knowing can be pathways to genuine healing sits at the heart of Geraldine Fogarty’s practice. A Registered Psychotherapist based in Toronto, she brings nearly three decades of clinical experience to work that is both analytically rigorous and deeply human. Her doctoral training in the psychology of religion, her graduate work at the Toronto Institute of Psychoanalysis, and her faculty role there inform an approach in which the inner life — dreams, memory, the patterns people can’t quite name — is taken seriously as a source of transformation.
Geraldine works with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, and mood disorders; those carrying the weight of abuse, neglect, or trauma; people facing addiction, eating disorders, or the particular exhaustion of professional burnout. She also works with those who feel, despite being in near-constant contact with others, that something essential about who they are simply goes unmet — a quiet disconnection that often only becomes visible in longer, depth-oriented work.
Her own experience as an immigrant, moving from Ireland to Canada in childhood, deepened her sensitivity to how cultural belonging and emotional difference shape a person’s sense of self. Online sessions are available.
