About Miriam
Miriam "Masha" Andreoni is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida. She focuses on helping people who are stressed, anxious, coping with addiction, or facing big life changes. Masha speaks plainly and meets people where they are in the moment.
Masha uses a flexible, person-centered approach rather than a single method for everyone. She listens for the concerns that matter most and discusses practical steps people can use right away.
Background and approach
Sessions often include tools to manage worry, rebuild routines, and improve relationships. She brings ten years of professional experience to her practice and draws on many years of personal life experience as well. That background informs how she notices patterns, understands stubborn problems, and offers realistic next steps that fit daily life.
Masha works with a wide range of issues including trauma and abuse, grief, mood concerns like depression and bipolar, addiction and process addictions, sleep and eating concerns, and challenges around intimacy and communication. She also supports people facing career transitions, parenting strain, and multicultural or first responder related stress.
Her approach combines Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and client-centered techniques. In sessions she helps people identify values, try small experiments, and build habits that reduce symptoms over time. She aims for a warm, respectful style with straightforward guidance and a bit of humor when it fits.
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Masha frequently uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice painful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. ACT can be useful for anxiety, avoidance, and life transitions by focusing on meaningful goals rather than trying to eliminate difficult feelings.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and replace them with practical, testable strategies. CBT often helps with anxiety, insomnia, and mood problems by teaching specific skills and behavioral experiments.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Masha collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, preferences, and daily life. She adapts techniques over time so sessions stay relevant and useful.
Online therapy offers flexibility across several formats. Video calls let people meet face to face for deeper conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions are a good fit when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging support brief check-ins, coping prompts, or step-by-step homework between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, family, or other commitments.
