Miranda Brulla (she/her)

In my work with MBCT, I integrate mindfulness practices with cognitive strategies to help clients become more aware of their thoughts and emotional experiences without judgment. This approach is especially helpful for individuals experiencing recurrent depression, anxiety, or emotional reactivity. I guide clients in cultivating presence, acceptance, and resilience by developing a mindful relationship with their inner world.

I provide comprehensive psychological assessments for individuals seeking clarity about learning differences, ADHD, autism, and emotional functioning. My evaluations are tailored to each client’s questions and concerns, combining clinical interviews, standardized testing, and detailed feedback. I strive to offer accessible, actionable recommendations that empower clients to better understand themselves and access the supports they need.

I use CBT to help clients identify and change unhelpful thoughts, behaviors, and patterns that contribute to emotional distress. Through structured, goal-oriented sessions, I support clients in building practical coping strategies, improving emotional regulation, and increasing self-awareness. My CBT work often focuses on anxiety, OCD, depression, and trauma, helping clients make meaningful, lasting change.

I treat OCD using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), helping clients gradually face distressing thoughts without engaging in compulsions. Whether related to contamination, checking, intrusive thoughts, or mental compulsions, I help reduce OCD’s interference while building resilience, self-understanding, and comfort with uncertainty in daily life.

In my work with depression, I support clients experiencing low mood, hopelessness, and self-worth challenges, including those related to trauma histories. I have experience helping individuals process and heal from PTSD using trauma-informed care and evidence-based strategies. Together, we work to reconnect with meaning, increase motivation, and build a more compassionate inner voice.

I help clients manage anxiety by identifying triggers, reducing avoidance, and building coping tools to face feared situations. This includes work with generalized anxiety, social anxiety, and panic attacks—helping clients understand their physical symptoms and break the cycle of fear around bodily sensations. My goal is to restore a sense of safety, control, and confidence in everyday life.
