About Meredith
Dr. Meredith Mitstifer is a licensed psychologist with nearly two decades of clinical experience based in Arizona.
Background and approach
She has a long history of working with people navigating cancer, grief and loss, and those seeking focused support for life and career goals. As a clinician who has personal experience with cancer, she understands the complex emotional and relational adjustments that often accompany diagnosis and treatment, and she brings that perspective to her therapeutic work.
Her practice emphasizes practical skills alongside emotional processing, using education, cognitive behavioral techniques, and mindfulness to help clients manage stress, mood, and decision-making. She pairs motivational strategies and solution-focused planning to support intentional progress toward goals, whether related to work, relationships, or personal growth.
Dr. Mitstifer adapts treatment to each person’s circumstances and offers training in relaxation, interpersonal effectiveness, and coping strategies to address concerns such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, self-esteem, and trauma.
Licensed in Arizona as AZ Psychologist PSY-004112, she delivers care through multiple online formats and aims to create a collaborative, individualized plan that reflects each client’s needs and priorities.
Practical approaches for online therapy and change
Dr. Mitstifer uses evidence-informed methods to help clients build skills and move toward goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, stress management, and mood regulation. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and stress reduction practices to improve emotional regulation and ease rumination.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to weigh needs, preferences, and goals, and then tailors a plan that may blend methods such as CBT, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, or solution-focused techniques to match the client’s priorities.
Offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging provides flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access support from home or work, and fit therapeutic work into a busy life while preserving the ability to use skill practice, behavioral homework, and brief check-ins between sessions.
