Testimonial

Craig Pereira is a remarkable man, whom I’ve know for six years : first as his Professor of Mindfulness and Psychotherapy,  then as his mentor, and more recently as his friend.  I’ve witnessed his marvelous transformation from a successful international businessman at Apple, to a student of Clinical Mindfulness (MBCT, MBSR, ACT), which he has integrated into the system he calls “Mindful Flow”.

Craig is a critical and appreciative thinker who  brings compassion to truth, in moving his clients to their liberation from suffering.

He is dedicated to his clients. He has the faith that within each person is a manifest destiny: the possibility for the realization of health, peace, and creativity.  This is  the work of therapy he offers.
