About Miriam
Miriam Berry is a psychotherapist who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship struggles. She also supports those dealing with codependency, grief, self-esteem and issues around intimacy. Miriam aims to make the first step into therapy as straightforward as possible, and she offers a calm, respectful space to talk through concerns.
She works in a psychodynamic way, which means sessions often look at how early experiences shape present patterns. Miriam will help you notice repeated behaviour in relationships and everyday life. Once these patterns are clearer, you can choose whether to keep them or try something different.
Miriam has four years' experience and is a registered member of the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. That registration is part of how she describes her professional standing.
She has a particular interest in LGBTQ concerns, neurodiversity including autism and Asperger syndrome, and parent-adult child relationships. Miriam also supports people facing chronic illness, fertility and end-of-life challenges, and anyone coping with major life changes.
Her style is collaborative and conversational. Sessions focus on understanding patterns, making sense of feelings, and finding manageable steps forward. Miriam encourages clients to raise practical goals, and she will work with you to set a pace that feels right.
How psychodynamic ideas work in online therapy
Psychodynamic Therapy looks at how early relationships and experiences shape current feelings and behaviour. In online sessions this often involves talking about repeated patterns in relationships and how they affect daily life. The aim is to bring those patterns into awareness so people can make different choices.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your concerns, goals and preferences, and will suggest ways of working that suit you. This is a collaborative process and can change as therapy progresses.
Confirm the session formats available before booking, as the biography does not list specific online or in-person options. Many people find online sessions help them fit therapy into busy days, reduce travel time and make it easier to maintain continuity between appointments. If you need a shorter check-in or a quieter setting, a variety of arrangements can often be discussed to suit everyday life.
