Dr. Tony Meiners

Dr. Tony Meiners is a licensed clinical psychologist who has spent the last decade of his career working in residential, PHP, IOP, and outpatient levels of care. He brings a holistic treatment methodology to his treatment with patients to promote an integrative approach. He has a private practice in Newport Beach, CA and serves as the Clinical Director of a residential treatment program specializing in the treatment of trauma and stress-related disorders. Dr. Meiners utilizes his queer and neurodivergent-specific training in conjunction with knowledge of neurobiological and cognitive treatment modalities to help heal clients.

On his philosophy of his approach as psychologist, he states, “I am a firm believer in the idea that we are all the authors of our own story and have the power to change the narratives that are no longer serving our best interests. I strive for a collaborative environment with the individuals I work with and believe that they are the experts in their own lives. So often, individuals make themselves the center of the problem. Our problems don’t define us; we define our problems. It is the process of separating themselves from the problem and discovering alternative stories to their lives that allows individuals to step into their most desired state of being. My hope is that my clients can create a more self-serving narrative that encompasses their strongest preferences for the life they want to lead, one full of new meanings and rich possibilities.”
