What is mindfulness and meditation therapy?

Mindfulness and meditation therapy incorporates practices that help you develop present-moment awareness and a non-reactive relationship with your thoughts and feelings. Drawing from contemplative traditions, these approaches teach you to observe your inner experience without judgment. Therapists may guide formal meditation practices or weave mindfulness informally throughout sessions.

How can mindfulness and meditation help?

Many people find mindfulness and meditation helpful for managing anxiety, reducing stress, improving focus, and developing emotional regulation skills. These practices can support you in becoming less caught up in worry, responding more skillfully to difficult emotions, and cultivating greater calm. Regular practice may help build lasting changes in how you relate to your thoughts.

What happens in a mindfulness session?

In mindfulness-based sessions, your therapist may guide you through meditation exercises, breathing practices, or body scans. You might explore how to bring mindful awareness to everyday activities and difficult emotions. Sessions often include discussion of your experiences with practice and strategies for integrating mindfulness into daily life outside of therapy.

How do I find a mindfulness therapist?

On First Session, you can filter by specialty to find therapists who incorporate mindfulness and meditation into their practice. Each therapist has a profile with an intro video so you can get a sense of their approach. You can book a session directly online or request a free consultation first. All therapists on the platform have their credentials verified during onboarding.

Is mindfulness therapy right for me?

Mindfulness and meditation therapy may be a good fit if you're interested in developing present-moment awareness, struggle with racing thoughts or emotional reactivity, or want practical tools you can use daily. It's helpful for those open to contemplative practices. Consider booking a consultation with a therapist to discuss whether this approach suits you.

How do I get started?

Getting started is simple. Browse mindfulness therapists on First Session and watch their intro videos to find someone whose approach resonates with you. Once you've found a match, you can book your first session directly online. Many therapists offer a free 15-minute consultation if you'd like to connect first.
