Bloom Where You’re Planted

Mindful Therapy, Coaching and Classes to Help You Deepen Awareness, Ease Suffering and Nurture Change

The potential for healing and growth lives within you—held in your body, your breath, and your heart. With mindfulness awareness and care, you can explore and nurture what’s already within—feeling more rooted, present and at ease with yourself and within the world. Just as a plant starts as a seed, roots in the earth and grows to reach the sky, so can you stretch and grow into more of the person you’re meant to be. 

There’s no need to try to force this change. Rather, when we lean into what’s present right  now with interest and inquiry it becomes possible to cultivate new perspectives and develop a secure, kind and supportive relationship with ourselves. From this place, we’re able to navigate life’s inevitable difficulties with more freedom and grace. 

Through the steady practice of mindfulness and thoughtful self-inquiry, we learn to return to the present moment, again and again. This is where new patterns take root— insight deepens, and more kind and spacious relationships begin to grow.

Dr. Karen Walant is a highly experienced psychotherapist, MBCT instructor, and meditation teacher, offering online therapy, mindfulness coaching, MBCT courses and guided meditation classes. Blending decades of clinical experience with the wisdom of Buddhist psychology and the insights of Western therapy and neuroscience, Karen supports you on a grounded, embodied path of healing and discovery.

Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, stress, attachment wounds, or seeking deeper connection with meditation and your spiritual path, Karen’s warm, attuned presence offers a safe space to explore, reflect, heal and grow—one breath and one moment at a time.

Meet Yourself With More Kindness
A Mindful Path to Ease, Insight and Emotional Resilience

What if healing isn’t about fixing what’s wrong, but more about gently shifting how you meet what’s already here? Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) helps you do just that. 

Rather than feeling stuck in stress, anxiety, depression, low mood and self-criticism, MBCT teaches you how to pause, reflect, and respond with greater awareness, increased spaciousness and thoughtful compassion. Rooted in both mindfulness and modern cognitive therapy, the 8-week online course offers tools to navigate life’s challenges with more steadiness and choice.

Through weekly sessions, guided practices, and gentle self-inquiry, you’ll learn to recognize unhelpful patterns, stay grounded in the present moment, and connect with inner resources. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply seeking a more spacious way to relate to your mind, body and emotions, MBCT offers a structured, supportive path forward.
