About


Meri Keane
I have been “writing in my head” for as long as I can remember. A simple experience easily turns into a possible tale that needs to be told. Oral story traditions are common in my family so I have learned to create stories with my imagination, never actually knowing where they will go or how they will end. I prefer creative writing but much of my work has included writing articles for medically based publications, speaking at national conventions, ghost writing, and owning a writing service for professionals, students, and ordinary everyday people.

I started my career in the field of psychiatry. I always wanted to work in the specialty of mental health; a place where the patients become the teachers and the experts become the students. Their stories are rich with life experiences, many sad and some full of laughter. In this setting it is easy to develop compassion, kindness, and a deep sense of gratefulness. I am in private practice and specialize in talk therapy and medical hypnosis.

I hold dual citizenship with the United States and with Ireland. People are the same no matter where you go… always searching for inclusion, attachment and understanding.
