Mindy Walls is a clinical social worker providing treatment to adult individuals living in Rhode Island. Many clients present for treatment with complaints of depression, anxiety, or of a general experience of feeling lost, stuck, or disconnected from themselves and often, others. Many clients present in the midst of great life transitions: entering or moving through college, relationship difficulties, or on the precipice of making a career change or other significant life changes. Mindy has experience working with a variety of folks across life's spectrum: cisgendered people, queer and questioning folks, activists and students of all ages, BIPOC people, folks with access to financial resources and folks without, people with ADHD and executive dysfunctions, midlife caregivers, professionals, people living with chronic illness or acute mood disorder episodes, and more.
Mindy works collaboratively and respectfully with her clients. She is warm and thoughtful as well as honest and challenging in relationship with her clients. Mindy’s work is grounded in existential and psychodynamic theories, present-oriented awareness, and is relationally-based. In essence, how did we get to where we are now, how are we now, and how do we live the life we want to live, and become the person we want to become? What is in the way of us showing up fully in this moment? Mindy supports her clients to identify unhelpful patterns they have developed over the course of their lives, and work toward trying something new. As a social worker, Mindy is trained to carefully examine the social, economic, and political systems at play in her client’s complaints. Mindy's work is rooted in a belief in the worth and dignity of all people.
