Enhance Your Self-Awareness & Empowerment Through Personalized Psychotherapy

Our work together will foster a deeper, kinder understanding of yourself, bringing you relief and balance. By integrating mindfulness practices alongside emotional exploration and body awareness, we’ll enhance your ability to cope with life’s challenges, ensuring your unique needs are at the heart of our holistic approach.

I’m a psychotherapist with over 18 years of experience working with adults, couples and groups.

I can deeply appreciate how the decision to enter therapy can feel daunting and be filled with ambivalence.

It’s human to feel overwhelmed, stressed, anxious, shut-down, or disconnected. We often get stuck in habitual patterns that leave us feeling shame, inadequacy, frustration and sadness in our various roles.

Through this meaningful and relational therapy you will embrace new ways of being with yourself and put faith in self-kindness to achieve what you’re looking for.

About Meira Cohen-Hansford

How We Work Together

I have been practicing yoga and mindfulness for 25 years and integrate those techniques into my psychotherapy.

Curiosity and self-compassion are the most common tools that people develop while working with me through talking and reflection.

As a trauma informed therapist, I consider your whole person: brain, mind-body and nervous system. Similarly, I bring my whole self – my attunement and intuition – into our work together.

My approach is holistic and integrative, drawing from insight-oriented, skills-based and experiential modalities.

Nurturing a Balanced and Resilient Mind

My Approach

I meet you right where you are, allowing us to work together at a pace that feels comfortable for you.

By developing tools to stay present, we lay a strong foundation that enables you to feel alive and fulfilled in your life and relationships.

Together, we build affirmation, validation, and recognition, creating space for new ways to experience yourself and explore what is possible.

We focus on alleviating feelings of aloneness and overwhelm. We work to get unstuck and expand your awareness through a blend of experiential and cognitive exploration.

I am fully engaged in this process with you. You will never experience me as blank faced or wonder what I’m thinking. I offer metaprocessing support along the way, ensuring that you always feel my presence as we navigate this transformation together.

The most important element to successful psychotherapy is the relationship between a therapist and a client. I feel very honored to be let into people’s healing and growth process.

I believe that a different therapy must be constructed for each patient because each has a unique story – Irvin Yalom
