I have attempted therapy with other psychiatrist other therapist and have never been able to connect or feel comfortable enough to open up to them until I Meredith. No lie, from the moment we spoke the very first time I felt like she was a friend and not my therapist. The 1st session I allowed the waterworks to came on. I was letting things out that I really don’t even tell my family or even my physician. She is so easy to talk to and doesn’t push me into a direction I am not comfortable with. She is a phenomenal woman/therapist/asset.

More about Meredith
- 7 years' experience

- LCSW
My passion stems from this belief: All people have the power and potential to figure out how to best live in this world. My role as a counselor is to help clarify how one's own life experiences influence their thinking, behaviors, emotions and perceptions of the world. Once a person understands the origins of their problems more deeply, they are then able to make and sustain the changes they need to move forward. It is my hope to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space in which a person can feel safe and comfortable exploring their lives and experiences.
Trust and the ability to truly consider another's perspective are vital to effective counseling. Meaningful change is most probable when one is able to build off their own strengths. The social work perspective has provided a deeper understanding of how the whole environment needs consideration when working toward change.
Since 2015, I have worked as a counselor in the community, inpatient treatment, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, and outpatient therapy, which is my strength and preference. The experience that sets me apart includes training in Dialectical Behavior Therapy and holistic approaches.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Meredith is very easy to communicate with, she puts me at ease.
I feel beyond grateful to have found my therapist, Meredith Hinson. I was skeptical of therapy and after our first session I could tell we were a perfect match and that this was going to be more helpful than I could ever imagine. I felt more and more at ease and comfortable each session. Her expertise and knowledge has really enlightened me to so many new ways to better my control over my mental health. She truly has been a life saver for me and I will continue my therapy with her and highly recommend her to anyone in need of therapy.
I feel very comfortable and connected to her.
