About Miriam

Miriam Reeves is a licensed clinical social worker who brings 13 years of psychotherapy experience to her practice. She holds LCSW and LISW-CP credentials and offers a straightforward, compassionate approach for people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, depression, and codependency concerns.

She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Attachment-Based approaches, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and client-centered methods. Miriam helps people notice unhelpful patterns, learn practical skills, and make clear choices that match their values. Sessions focus on concrete steps and small changes that fit into daily life.

Her background includes a decade working in outpatient care for people with substance use and mental health challenges. That experience shaped a practical style that balances emotional work with skill building. Miriam also supports people dealing with relationship struggles, parenting stress, caregiver burnout, and issues tied to family of origin.

In sessions she prioritizes understanding each person’s history and current goals. She works collaboratively to identify barriers and test new ways of coping. The aim is increased self-awareness, better emotion regulation, and clearer paths to meaningful goals.

People who reach out can expect a steady, direct clinician who values insight and usable tools. Miriam encourages self-acceptance alongside growth so clients can make steady progress without harsh self-judgment.

How Miriam’s Approaches Translate to Online Therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most and take small, committed actions toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and trying new behaviors to change mood and functioning. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past relationships shape current patterns and helps people develop different ways of relating to themselves and others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through goals, personal preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. That collaboration guides which methods are emphasized and how sessions are paced.

Confirm the current session options before booking to know how sessions are delivered. Online therapy can help fit care into busy lives by reducing travel time and making it easier to attend during a lunch break or between errands. It also allows short check-ins when a full in-person visit would be hard to schedule. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT and CBT exercises to an online setting so clients keep practicing skills between sessions.
