About Miriam

Miriam "Masha" Andreoni welcomes people who are ready to address stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, depression, relationship struggles, and other life challenges. She emphasizes individualized care rather than a one-size-fits-all model, aiming to understand each person's unique history, current concerns, and goals before shaping a plan together.

Background and approach

Masha frames therapy as a collaborative process that honors clients' experiences and practical needs while encouraging actionable steps toward change. As a Florida-licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with ten years of professional experience, she combines evidence-informed methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, and motivational interviewing with a client-centered stance.

Her work spans a broad range of issues including grief, intimacy-related difficulties, eating and sleeping problems, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and process addictions, as well as related areas like codependency, communication problems, and life purpose. Masha brings warmth, respectful curiosity, and an occasionally light touch of humor to sessions while continuing ongoing professional development.

She offers services in English and practices from Florida, assisting clients who are ready to engage in focused, practical growth.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Many of Masha’s methods focus on present-focused, practical tools to ease symptoms and build skills. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, and problematic habits. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes values-based action and learning to accept difficult thoughts or feelings while still moving toward meaningful goals. Client-Centered Therapy places the person’s experience at the center of the work, offering empathetic listening and collaborative exploration so clients feel heard and guided rather than judged.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Masha works collaboratively with clients to determine which combination of strategies best fits their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting methods over time as progress and circumstances evolve.

Online therapy with Masha is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, giving clients flexibility to work in ways that fit their schedules and comfort levels. These formats can make regular engagement easier for people juggling work, family, or health concerns, and they support ongoing access to evidence-informed interventions from a licensed professional based in Florida.
