Miriam Anthony holds a Chief Mate’s license and has been sailing since 2007. Over the years she has taken ships all over the world, including Antarctica.  She has worked on tugs, fishing vessels, research vessels, heavy lift ships, container ships, Navy pre-positioned LMSRs, and car-carriers. 

After witnessing need in the industry, she pursued licensure in Marriage and Family Therapy, and now brings mental health to mariners.  Miriam chairs the Mental Health Committee for the International Union of Masters Mates and Pilots, and has been researching ways to improve the mental well-being of sailors.  Miriam holds a Master’s degree in Humanitarian and Disaster Management from the California Maritime Academy, and a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University.  Working with seafarers facing all kinds of life’s challenges- both on the ship and off, she got her start providing therapy to military Veterans for U.S. Vets in Southern California where she lives with her therapy dog, Hopper.
