About Miriam

Miriam Perrin is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor with 16 years of clinical experience who focuses on helping people regain balance when life feels overwhelming.

Background and approach

She aims to build a trusting therapeutic relationship that encourages clients to bring their authentic selves to sessions, and she draws on practical skills training to address anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship struggles, and addictive behaviors. Miriam also works with concerns such as stress, parenting challenges, bipolar mood issues, anger, self-esteem, and career-related distress.

Her practice emphasizes evidence-informed interventions, including cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused strategies, alongside trauma-focused approaches for those processing past harm. Miriam blends coping-skill development, motivational interviewing, and psychoeducation to create a collaborative plan tailored to each person’s needs.

With a direct yet compassionate manner, she supports clients working through attachment and abandonment worries, codependency, body image and identity questions, panic symptoms, and feelings of isolation. Clients seeking a practical, relationship-centered therapist in Florida can expect focused sessions that aim to clarify goals, teach tools for day-to-day functioning, and explore deeper patterns that affect well-being.

Approaches for Online Growth and Healing



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful patterns of thought and behavior so clients can reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression and build more effective coping strategies. Solution-Focused Therapy centers on small, practical steps and measurable goals to help people move toward the changes they want to see in their lives. Trauma-Focused Therapy provides targeted support for processing traumatic experiences and developing skills to manage trauma-related reactions in daily life.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey and is best determined collaboratively. The therapist works with each person to understand their needs, preferences, and goals and will adapt methods over time so the plan matches what is most helpful for the client.

Online sessions offer flexibility in how care is delivered, with options for video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to access consistent support around work and family schedules, and they allow therapists to introduce structured exercises, homework, and symptom tracking in ways that fit a client’s lifestyle.
