Miriam holds an LCMHC credential and brings 11 years of experience to her practice. Miriam uses straightforward conversation to understand what matters most to each person.
How Miriam works
She listens with respect and tailors the plan to fit individual needs. Sessions focus on practical steps people can try between appointments and on clearer ways to face difficult feelings. Her approach draws on methods that teach new ways of handling thoughts and behaviors.
That can mean practicing skills for distress tolerance, testing out small changes, or building values-based goals. Miriam mixes coaching-style guidance with evidence-informed techniques to help people move forward at their pace. Appointments may take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text messaging.
The goal is to make therapy fit a busy life so people can keep progress going between sessions. Miriam frames progress as steady work, not instant fixes. She asks straightforward questions at the start to shape a clear plan.
Over time she adjusts tools and goals based on what helps most. The focus is on realistic steps, clearer choices, and learning skills that apply to everyday situations.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches and online options
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions toward those values even when feelings are hard. It encourages acceptance of uncomfortable thoughts while committing to practical steps that match personal priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that get in the way and testing new, more helpful ways of responding. CBT often uses short experiments and skills practice to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what seems most useful. That conversation guides which methods are emphasized, and the plan is adjusted over time based on what helps most.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into busy lives. Video calls let the conversation feel closest to in-person meetings. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or to fit a break at work. Live chat and text messaging work well for shorter check-ins, writing out thoughts, or keeping momentum between sessions. These formats let people keep steady progress while balancing everyday demands.
