Mindfulness-based therapy incorporates practices that help you develop present-moment awareness and a non-judgmental relationship with your thoughts and feelings. Rather than getting caught up in worries about the future or regrets about the past, mindfulness helps you cultivate the ability to be fully present. This approach is often integrated with other therapeutic modalities.

On First Session, you can browse therapists who incorporate mindfulness into their work and watch their intro videos to get a sense of their style. All therapists have their credentials verified during onboarding. Whether you prefer online or in-person sessions, you can book directly or request a free consultation to find the right match.

About First Session
What is mindfulness-based therapy?

Mindfulness-based therapy incorporates practices that cultivate present-moment awareness and acceptance. Drawing from contemplative traditions, these approaches teach you to observe your thoughts and feelings without judgment, creating space between stimulus and response. Mindfulness is often integrated into various therapeutic modalities including CBT, ACT, and DBT.

How can mindfulness therapy help?

Many people find mindfulness-based approaches helpful for managing anxiety, depression, stress, chronic pain, and emotional reactivity. Mindfulness can support you in becoming less caught up in difficult thoughts, developing a more balanced perspective, and responding to challenges with greater calm. Regular practice can help you build a more accepting relationship with your inner experience.

What happens in a mindfulness-based 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 how to integrate mindfulness into daily life.

How do I find a mindfulness therapist?

On First Session, you can filter by specialty to find therapists who incorporate mindfulness 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-based 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 meditation and 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.
