Miriam Reeves, LCSW, LISW-CP

Miriam Reeves is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who brings 13 years of psychotherapy experience to her practice. She combines practical, down-to-earth conversation with tools that help people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, depression, and anger. Miriam speaks plainly and focuses on helping people move forward one step at a time.

Before moving into online work she spent a decade in outpatient care supporting people with substance use and co-occurring mental health concerns. That background shaped how she works today - she values clear goals, steady skill building, and realistic steps you can use between sessions. Miriam blends techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Attachment-Based approaches when appropriate.

In sessions she helps people understand patterns that get in the way of their goals. She emphasizes self-awareness, practical coping skills, and learning new ways to relate to difficult thoughts and feelings. She also addresses intimacy-related concerns, parenting strain, career stress, compassion fatigue, and challenges tied to family of origin or relationship patterns.

Miriam holds the credential of Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, and Licensed Independent Social Worker with Clinical Practice, LISW-CP. She works with clients in North Carolina and offers services in English. She does not take international clients.

If someone is looking for straightforward, skills-focused support with addictions or emotional struggles, she helps people clarify what matters and build small, steady changes that add up.

How her approaches shape online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people clarify their values and take action toward them even when difficult thoughts or feelings appear. It is useful for anxiety, depression, addiction, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, behaviors, and feelings, and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and anger. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships affect current patterns and helps people build healthier ways of relating to others and themselves.

Miriam treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That conversation shapes session focus, pacing, and homework that feels doable for daily life.

Session format options are not specified in the profile, so confirm current session choices before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow short check-ins when a longer in-person visit is difficult. It also allows steady, ongoing work on skills between sessions so people can practice new ways of coping in their everyday routines.
