About Irene
Irene Ledee-Farley is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York with three years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, and depression. She also addresses issues like codependency, caregiving strain, grief, and struggles around intimacy and self-esteem.
Her approach focuses on practical conversation and clear goals. She listens to what feels most urgent and helps people notice patterns that keep them stuck. Sessions are aimed at learning ways to set boundaries, manage overwhelming feelings, and make steadier choices in relationships.
Irene adapts the work to each person's situation. She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide treatment. That means using methods shown to help with mood, anxiety, trauma responses, and relationship difficulties.
She supports people coping with complicated experiences such as attachment wounds, abandonment fears, dissociation, and issues tied to gender or sexual expression. She also helps those navigating addiction, domestic violence histories, or life changes that affect work and parenting.
Conversations tend to be straightforward and goal-focused. Irene works with clients to build specific skills for managing symptoms, improving communication, and reducing burnout.

How sessions work
How therapeutic methods translate to online work
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques often used for relationship strain and codependency include cognitive-behavioral approaches and trauma-informed strategies. Cognitive-behavioral approaches help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors, which can reduce anxiety and improve decision-making in relationships. Trauma-informed strategies focus on understanding how past hurts affect current reactions and help develop pacing and grounding skills to manage overwhelm.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying tools, checking how they land, and adjusting the plan together as progress is made.
The original biography did not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Some people prefer a session where they do not need to be on camera or that requires less bandwidth, while others choose a full video meeting to work on emotional skills in real time. Discussing practical scheduling needs helps shape how therapy fits into everyday life.
