How Miriam Uses Practical Therapies Online
Miriam uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try different actions. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, panic, and mood-related problems because it links thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers specific exercises to change them.She also applies solution-focused therapy to identify small, realistic steps people can take right away. This approach centers on what is working now and builds on strengths to reach short-term goals. When trauma is part of the picture, Miriam uses trauma-focused techniques to address how past events affect current functioning and to develop safety and coping strategies.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Miriam discusses the options with each person and adjusts methods based on needs, goals, and preferences. Clients and the therapist collaborate on which techniques to try and when to shift direction.
