About Miriam

Miriam Reeves is a licensed clinical social worker who uses practical, evidence-informed methods to help people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, and other life challenges.

Background and approach

With 13 years of clinical experience, she blends cognitive behavioral strategies with acceptance-based and attachment-informed ideas to support clients in building insight and new skills. Her credentials include LCSW and LISW-CP and she practices from North Carolina.

Reeves draws on several therapeutic traditions to tailor work to each person’s goals, addressing concerns such as depression, trauma and abuse, anger, intimacy-related issues, parenting struggles, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. She also attends to patterns rooted in family of origin, communication and trust, codependency, abandonment, and life transitions.

Miriam emphasizes helping clients develop practical coping tools while cultivating greater self-understanding and acceptance. Her approach aims to reduce obstacles that keep people from moving toward the life they want, with attention to both short-term relief and longer-term growth.

Miriam welcomes motivated people who are ready to explore thoughts, emotions, and behaviors and to practice new ways of responding to difficult situations.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Work

Many clients find Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helpful for identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing concrete behavioral changes; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and problem-solving around everyday stressors. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on clarifying values, increasing psychological flexibility, and learning to act in ways that align with what matters most despite difficult thoughts or feelings. Attachment-Based Therapy explores relational patterns and how early and current relationships shape behavior and emotional responses, which can be useful for intimacy, communication, and trust issues.

Choosing the right method is part of the therapeutic process and happens collaboratively. The therapist will work with each person to explore goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, adapting techniques from these approaches as the work unfolds so treatment remains focused and relevant.

Online sessions via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for scheduling and make it easier to continue care from different locations within the therapist's practice area. These formats support regular contact, allow for skill practice between sessions, and can make therapy more accessible for those balancing work, family, or other commitments.
