Thoughts Meander

Welcome to my blog, “Thoughts Meander,” a title inspired by The Beatles’ Across the Universe. Here I’ll share reflections and insights from my life—little pieces of thought and experience that I hope will help us connect on a deeper level. I’ll be adding more posts as time allows. Thank you for taking the time to read and join me on this journey.

About the Author

Douglas Carmody, LCSW is a licensed therapist and mental health advocate with over a decade of experience helping individuals heal, grow, and live more fulfilling lives. His approach blends evidence-based practices with compassion and personal connection, supporting clients in navigating challenges and building resilience.

After witnessing the profound impact that trauma and stress can have on people’s lives, Douglas dedicated himself to specialized training in EMDR therapy, addiction counseling, and mindfulness-based techniques. Today, he provides therapy, workshops, and resources designed to help clients process the past, manage the present, and create a healthier future.

“Healing begins when we allow ourselves to feel what we’ve been avoiding and trust that even the heaviest moments can be carried with support. Mindfulness and EMDR open the door to rewriting our story with resilience, clarity, and compassion.”
