Miriam Reeves

Miriam Reeves is a licensed social worker with over 13 years of clinical experience. She holds LCSW and LISW-CP credentials and practices from North Carolina. Miriam helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, depression, and major life changes. Her approach is practical and person-centered. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and build clearer goals. Attachment-based ideas and client-centered listening guide how she responds to relationship and intimacy concerns. Miriam spent a decade working in an outpatient setting serving people with substance use and co-occurring mental health issues. That background shaped her work with addiction, trauma, and grief. She also supports those dealing with caregiver strain, compassion fatigue, and challenges around parenting and communication. Sessions focus on small, usable steps. Clients learn ways to manage anger, improve self-esteem, and reduce anxiety. Miriam helps people practice skills between visits so progress carries into everyday life. Her style blends structured tools and open conversation. She emphasizes self-awareness, clearer values, and realistic action plans. People looking to navigate a life transition or cope with chronic stress often find this combination helpful.

How her approaches translate to online work

Miriam uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. ACT supports work on anxiety, depression, and life transitions by focusing on action rather than perfect control.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and build new coping skills. CBT is useful for managing panic, low mood, and patterns that keep problems stuck. Attachment-based ideas inform how she looks at relationship patterns and intimacy issues, helping people notice how early bonds shape current reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Miriam will work collaboratively to choose methods that fit a person’s goals and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress is made. Clients often try a mix of skills work, values-focused exercises, and conversational sessions to see what helps most.

Session formats are not specified in the profile, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example, shorter check-ins can be scheduled during a lunch break, and sessions without video can reduce bandwidth needs. Discussing practical needs up front helps shape a plan that works with everyday routines.
