About Miriam
She combines approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-focused ideas, client-centered care, cognitive behavioral therapy, and dialectical behavior techniques. Miriam draws from these methods to help people manage anger, intimacy struggles, parenting stress, and compassion fatigue. She also assists those dealing with ADHD, trauma, and family-of-origin problems.
In sessions she aims to help people notice what matters to them and take small, practical steps toward those goals. Conversations tend to be straightforward and focused on building skills that can be used between sessions. She supports people who are working through life changes, career stress, and difficult endings.
Miriam often works with issues tied to attachment, codependency, communication problems, commitment concerns, and caregiver stress. Her background includes a decade working in outpatient addiction services, where she supported people with substance use and co-occurring mental health challenges.
She encourages a collaborative process where clients and therapist shape the plan together. New clients begin by answering a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on the therapist's availability.
How these approaches guide online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice their values and take committed steps toward them, even when difficult thoughts or feelings appear. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, grief, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and aims to strengthen emotional connection and trust, which can help with intimacy, codependency, and communication problems. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down unhelpful thoughts and behaviors into manageable parts and teaches practical strategies to change them, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and anger.Finding the right approach is a shared process. Miriam works with clients to try methods that match their goals and preferences. She adjusts tools and exercises based on what is and isn’t helping, so clients have an active role in choosing the path forward.

In practice, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use techniques and worksheets during a regular day, practice new skills between sessions, and keep momentum when schedules change.
