Meira Greenfeld (She/Her)

I have certification and training as a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional from the International Association of Trauma Professionals and certification/training as an Accelerated Resolution Therapist. I am also trained in Brainspotting and EMDR. These, together with other trainings and hands-on experience, have provided me with an understanding of the interplay between memory, emotion and distress tolerance and how it impacts trauma and anxiety.

I have specific training in CBT , specialized training as a lawyer and undergraduate degree in Philosophy that makes me particularly adept at helping clients identify and process self-defeating behaviors and distorted cognitions. Facilitating the understanding of the connection between thoughts, behaviors and emotions empowers clients to change unhealthy habits and attain relief from their distress.

Unresolved trauma keeps your body trapped in an invisible fight, flight, or freeze state. Rather than repeating old cognitive loops, my practice integrates Polyvagal Theory to map physical stress responses with IFS (parts work) to gently heal deep protective blocks. Combined with ACT, we move beyond survival into building a values-driven life. I specialize in rapid subcortical trauma resolution for deeply analytical minds and high-stress individuals seeking immediate relief.

Many of the clients who see me experience identity issues or trauma symptoms related to racially based or intergenerational traumas. My professional training and experience as an activist and advocate spanning decades underlies much of my focus on racial and social justice. I'm particularly attuned to issues of "difference" among those whose experiences do not reflect dominant thinking regardless of whether that experience reflects marginalization: Mixed-race, interracial and multicultural.

Tired of talking in circles? ADHD and chronic burnout live in your nervous system, not your rational brain. As a somatically oriented Phoenix LCSW, I bypass cognitive looping using rapid, evidence-based physical interventions. I specialize in 3 to 4-hour Somatic Resets on Sundays and weekday evenings. We physically shift your system out of anxiety and ADHD paralysis so you can reclaim your focus. Private pay; out-of-network superbills provided.

Traditional talk therapy often fails brains that process the world differently. I provide neurodivergent-affirming care specifically tailored to Adult ADHD and AuDHD systems. Whether you are a student trapped in executive dysfunction or a professional dealing with hidden sensory overload, we build concrete somatic and practical strategies to restore focus without sacrificing your well-being. I treat clients as collaborative equals and offer Sunday and evening intensives in Phoenix.

You can’t just put your life, career, or classes on hold to heal. When chronic exhaustion sets in, traditional talk therapy is too slow. Drawing from my background as a Harvard Law J.D. and 15 years in high-pressure roles, I use advanced somatic grounding strategies designed to rapidly stabilize your nervous system right in the middle of real-world demands. We target your physical stress response so you can regain cognitive clarity, protect your well-being, and stay highly effective.
