About Miriam
Miriam Reeves is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and a Licensed Independent Social Worker-Clinical Practice (LISW-CP) practicing in North Carolina with 13 years of clinical experience. She works primarily with adults facing stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, anger, depression, relationship strain, parenting concerns, and trauma and abuse. Miriam also supports people coping with career changes, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.
Her background includes a decade working in an outpatient setting serving people with substance use and co-occurring mental health concerns. That experience shapes how she responds to complex problems and relapse risk. It also informs practical strategies for managing cravings, setbacks, and daily stressors.
Miriam draws on several evidence-based approaches in straightforward ways. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice what matters to them and take small committed steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try concrete behavior changes. Attachment-Based ideas inform work on relationship patterns and how past experiences shape current connections.
Sessions focus on clear, usable skills and self-reflection. Miriam talks through coping strategies, communication techniques, and steps for managing mood and addictive behaviors. She aims to help people build awareness and pick a few realistic changes to try between sessions.
People often come for help with family problems, parenting pressure, or lingering hurts from earlier relationships. Miriam works with those issues by combining skills training and reflective conversation, helping clients make steady, practical progress.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small committed steps toward them. It helps with worry, low mood, and motivation by building actions that align with what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and problem behaviors. Attachment-Based Therapy examines how early relationship patterns influence current connections and helps people notice and change recurring interaction styles.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Miriam will talk with clients about goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped in the past. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust the plan as things progress.
The therapist's biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also make it possible to practice skills in real-life routines. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and attachment-focused work to an online setting so clients learn coping tools and communication strategies that fit everyday life.
