A little about Oona…

I am a therapist, writer and speaker in the Greater Boston area. I run three weekly confidential Divorce Support Groups for Women+ and provide consultation to therapists working with clients who are navigating divorce. I have published essays on divorce, parenting and being a therapist in Cognoscenti, Psychotherapy Networker, The Los Angeles Review and other outlets. I have given over 100 talks on divorce, group therapy, and related issues both locally and nationally. I am the founder of The Beacon Group Fellowship, a training program for mental health clinicians to learn how to lead Divorce Support Groups.

I can’t wait to share my book with you! Unhitched: The Essential Divorce Guide for Women is available for pre-order now and will be available in bookstores on January 13th, 2026.

Testimonials

As a socially anxious person, I wasn't sure a group would be right for me, but Oona created a welcoming and safe environment. Oona compassionately guided our group, always knowing when to offer gentle support and guidance. Over time, I gained strength from my fellow group members who were all open, generous, and kind. With Oona's help, I have come out on the other side of my divorce feeling strong and capable.

When I was going through a very traumatic and painful divorce, I felt so broken and desperate. When I first came to the group, I was so filled with grief and shame that I just cried throughout the entire session. But I kept coming back and grew to depend on the group in such a deep and meaningful way. This group truly saved my life.

As a non-binary queer person, I'm deeply grateful to Oona for creating such a safe and welcoming space where I could be myself and trust that I would be honored and respected. Oona listens deeply, offers valuable insight, and ensures that each person gets the care and support they deserve. I can't recommend this group highly enough—it was truly my life raft through the stormiest time in my life.
