Mindfulness-Based (MBCT) Therapists in Jay, FL

I work with individuals suffering from anxiety, depression, trauma, phase of life issues, and many other challenges.

Do you need help fine-tuning your life? Are your children addicted to technology? Do people tell you that you’re over-reacting? Whether you have children or not, it can be very difficult to stay focused on the tasks that need to be completed each day. This can lead to stress, difficulty sleeping, or lashing out at others. Therapy can be the perfect place to relax, reset, and recharge.

You're ready to heal old wounds, harness control over your thoughts and emotions, and step boldly into the future. I'm Max Komes, and I'm committed to walking alongside you on this journey, offering a space of compassion and the tools you need to discover your inner strength and reclaim your power.

I have specialized in working with Obsessive Compulsive Spectrum Disorders since the late 1990's and have worked with hundreds of patients, trained other professionals all over the US, and published a range of books on optimal OCD treatment ("The OCD Meditation Book"; "The ERP Cure").
