About Miriam
Miriam "Masha" Andreoni is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps parents and adults navigate stressful life moments. She writes plainly and listens closely to learn where each person is starting from. Her approach aims to reduce overwhelm so people can make steady changes that fit their daily lives.
Masha brings ten years of clinical experience and a long history of lived experience to sessions. She does not use a single method for everyone.
Background and approach
Instead she combines practical strategies with open conversation to address the problems that come up together. In sessions she often focuses on anxiety, stress, addictions, trauma and grief. She also supports people dealing with relationship struggles, parenting strain, sleep and eating problems, and career or life-purpose questions.
Masha pays attention to how symptoms interact, for example how sleep loss can affect mood and relationships. Her work draws on tools from acceptance and commitment approaches, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and client-centered methods. She helps people name what matters, try small behavior changes, and notice what works.
The aim is practical progress rather than labels. Masha practices in Florida as an LCSW. She brings a straightforward, warm style and a sense of humor when appropriate.
Sessions are geared toward realistic steps you can use between meetings, and toward building a plan that fits your life and responsibilities.

How different approaches are used online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values while still noticing difficult thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve sleep. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental conversation where the person leads the pace and the therapist follows to support insight and self-directed change.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Masha will talk with you about your goals and try methods that match your needs and preferences. Together you can adjust the tools and pace so therapy fits your life and feels useful rather than rigid.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face work and exercises, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can fit quick check-ins or moments when typing feels easier. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and varying routines.
