Merih Cengel, PH.D., LMFT-ASSOCIATE
Currently serving as a Founder, Owner, and Clinical Director of Therapy and Co, I utilize a humanistic, experiential, and solution-focused approach with a strength-based lens to help clients create and implement effective strategies to overcome trauma, anxiety, depression, addiction, self-esteem, intimacy, and relational issues.
Prior to launching Therapy and Co, I worked in Europe’s first accredited brain hospital NPIstanbul as a licensed Clinical Psychologist for almost ten years. During my practice, l oversaw therapeutic interventions, psychological assessments, and group therapy. I have also taught several undergraduate and graduate courses, presented at several national and international conferences, and written book chapters on mindfulness and addiction.
Centered in Houston, Texas, I enjoy spending time with my two children and entrepreneur husband. Born and raised in the United States and having lived in Istanbul for over ten years, I am adept at communicating with diverse audiences. I also like practicing and participating in yoga and meditation.
