About Miriam

Miriam "Masha" Andreoni is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with 10 years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, anger, relationship and family concerns, and related issues like grief, sleep problems, and parenting. Sessions are offered in English and Miriam draws on a range of practical approaches to help people manage difficult emotions and life transitions.

Masha emphasizes that no single method fits everyone. She looks at how different problems often come together - for example, how insomnia, anxiety, and relationship strain can appear alongside trauma or substance use. Her goal is to understand where a person is coming from and what they want to change, then work toward clear, solution-focused steps.

Her work often includes strategies from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness practices, client-centered conversation, and motivational interviewing. She uses these tools to help people notice patterns, try new behaviors, and build coping skills for anger, cravings, or stress. Practical exercises and short-term goals are common parts of sessions.

Masha has experience with military-related concerns, substance use, and complex trauma, and she brings life experience and humor when appropriate. She avoids quick labels and instead focuses on concrete problems and small changes that make daily life easier. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

To begin, a person completes a brief matching questionnaire and then schedules a first session. The process is meant to match needs and preferences with a therapist and start with a clear plan for what to work on.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Miriam often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. ACT helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and then choose actions that align with their values instead of reacting automatically. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying practical behavior changes to reduce stress, anger, or anxiety.

She also uses mindfulness techniques to help people recognize bodily and emotional cues that precede an outburst or a craving. These practices are simple skills you can try between sessions to reduce reactivity and improve sleep, concentration, and mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, preferences, and daily life. That might mean trying ACT exercises one week and CBT skill practice the next, then adjusting based on what helps.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, since this profile does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit short check-ins into a busy day, avoid travel time, and practice skills in the settings where problems happen. Talk with the therapist after the matching questionnaire to plan session length, pacing, and practical steps that fit everyday routines.
