Miriam Munzarova, AMFT117967

I provide evidence-based treatment for mood disorders, anxiety, OCD, and related disorders. I work with patients who survived physical, sexual, or spiritual abuse or trauma. I work with betrayed partners to find hope and joy again. I implement into my work new strategies based on the research in neuroscience. I help people to transform their lives by changing their brains and their relationships.
Asking for help is hard. Only when we admit our powerlessness and our dependence on others, we can be healed. A way of humility is a way of love. I will be on your side to support you on your journey toward your healing. You will learn how to live your life mindfully with kindness, acceptance, and confidence. You will find your peace.

I was born in the Czech Republic and graduated from Masaryk University Medical School in Brno. Soon after, I moved with my husband and two small children to the United States. As our family grew, I stayed at home while raising my little ones and had to put my own professional career on hold. Once my youngest daughters entered kindergarten I returned to school and completed my Master's in counseling at John F Kennedy University.



Moving to a foreign country and restarting my life there was not easy. I recognized through my own struggles and trials how valuable, precious, beautiful, and at the same time, difficult human life is. I learned that often the most difficult step in our healing is asking for help. As we have been and are hurt by past painful experiences or by painful relationships, I believe that healing comes again through relationships. Human existence is very fragile, and we need to enjoy every moment of our lives and live according to our values.
My passion to search for the answers to numerous questions, as well as my desire to find the ultimate truth and to understand the mystery of how to be happy and how to live an authentic and meaningful life, led to my decision to become a therapist. My focus is on helping those who are experiencing struggles, facing losses or transitions in life, suffering mental or emotional pain, or experiencing emotional distress.
