About Miriam
Miriam "Masha" Andreoni is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with 10 years of professional experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, self-esteem and depression. People who struggle with relationship patterns, codependency, grief, intimacy issues, or problems with sleep and eating will find her straightforward approach easy to follow.
Masha emphasizes that people do not fit neatly into diagnostic boxes. She notices that problems often come linked together - for example, addiction alongside anxiety or sleep trouble alongside relationship strain. Her focus is on learning where a person is now and what they want to change rather than assuming a single label explains everything.
In sessions she draws on clear, evidence-informed tools to help people notice their patterns and try small shifts. Techniques come from acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and client-centered methods. She uses these tools to help clients set practical goals and try new behaviors that make daily life more manageable.
Masha also brings experience working with military populations and with people facing substance-related issues and trauma. That background informs how she understands stress responses and relapse risk, and how she addresses feelings like guilt, shame, or anger that often come with those experiences.
Her style is direct and conversational. Sessions include reflection, skill practice, and problem-focused planning. Prospective clients should be ready to talk about what is working and what they want to change, and to try new ways of responding between sessions.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches work in online sessions
Miriam uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. ACT focuses on identifying values and taking small actions that align with what matters, which can help with commitment issues and codependent patterns.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thinking and to practice different ways of behaving. CBT is practical for anxiety, depression, and habits tied to addictions or sleep and eating problems. Client-centered methods create space for the person to lead the conversation while the therapist reflects what they say and helps find their own solutions.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Miriam will collaborate with each person to pick strategies that match their goals and preferences. She adjusts techniques over time based on what helps most and what feels doable in daily life.
