Mirranda Cardinali, MA, LPC, CRC (Founder & Psychotherapist)
Mirranda earned her Master of Arts degree from Maryville University in Rehabilitation Counseling. She is certified in her field, an EMDRIA certified therapist and consultant, as well as a qEEG neurofeedback practitioner with a particular interest in functional and wholistic healing.
Mirranda specializes in working with complex and often underserved trauma presentations, including various types of dissociative disorders and men with histories of childhood sexual abuse, both of which are frequently overlooked or misrepresented within mental health care treatment. Her work in this area is grounded within advanced trauma training, deep clinical experience and an understanding of the unique barriers these populations face around disclosure, shame, identity, and trust.
Additionally, Mirranda has extensive experience and a passion for supporting Veterans and First Responders, helping them process cumulative trauma, moral injury, and chronic nervous system dysregulation related to high-risk and service-based roles.
Her integrative, neuroscience-informed approach addresses both the psychological and physiological impacts of trauma. Mirranda focuses on helping individuals build regulation, restore a sense of safety and control, and move towards meaningful and sustainable healing. She is known for creating a grounded, respectful therapeutic environment where difficult experiences can be addressed directly, without minimization or judgment.
