I have helped clients identify and cope with a variety of concerns and diagnoses, such as anxiety, mood disorders, ADHD, learning disabilities, and autism spectrum disorders.
With an emphasis on strengths, I collaborate with my clients to identify and address their needs. My practice is divided between therapy and neuropsychological evaluations. I take an integrative approach to psychotherapy, as I draw from cognitive behavioral therapy, relational theory, and other evidence-based approaches, including mindfulness. My neuropsychological evaluations are comprehensive, and emphasize the context of clients' unique histories. Please see my website for more information - drmeredithcohen.com.

I also conduct neuropsychological assessment, including diagnostic testing for autism, learning disabilities, & ADHD.
Everyone deserves to experience joy & fulfillment in life & relationships, including you! At the foundation of my approach is a strong connection between two people that is based on mutual safety, trust, & genuine care. Within this relationship, I am my authentic self by bringing my warmth, dedication, & quirky personality that often puts folks at ease & enables them to more compassionately understand their true selves, strengths & imperfections in all. Through this process of self-exploration, people I work with learn to more honestly attend to & express their emotions, which leads to greater self-acceptance & consequently freedom from self-doubt & low self-esteem.

My approach is to understand your questions, goals, and challenges, and to develop strategies both for you and for the environments you are in to best fit your needs. Having a diagnosis can be a great step toward understanding yourself more intimately and can open doors to wonderful community.

I have worked extensively with children and adults on a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, school issues, family conflict, Autism, women's issues, healthy lifestyle and more.
My therapeutic approach is grounded in the belief that people will do well when they can. The first step is getting to know you through the lens of empathy. It's my job to ask questions and work hard to get a sense of your experience, what it's like to stand in your shoes. Solutions and strategies are how we make the change. However, it can feel daunting and easier to just avoid. Accountability makes change. In my practice accountability means that you always have someone in your corner cheering you on, helping you identify small incremental actions and gently pushing you to follow through and create the change you are looking for.
