About Miriam
Miriam Ellis is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in California with five years of professional experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, low self-esteem, and depression. Miriam also focuses on attachment issues, communication problems, panic attacks, social anxiety and phobia, and women's issues.
She keeps sessions straightforward and conversational. Miriam listens to immediate concerns and helps clients notice patterns that get in the way. Conversations typically focus on practical steps you can try between meetings and on building small skills that make social situations easier to manage.
Her approach favors evidence-based therapeutic techniques. Miriam explains tools in plain language and practices them with clients during sessions. She encourages short experiments to test what works in real life rather than long abstract discussion.
Miriam draws on five years of clinical work in California to inform her choices in session. She asks about a person’s day-to-day routines, relationships, and past experiences to shape a plan that fits real life. She also reviews progress regularly and adjusts as needed.
To begin, she asks people to complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. The service uses a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and fees vary with location. Confirm current session options before booking to make sure the format fits your needs.
How evidence-based techniques translate to online sessions
Many evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on practical skills and clear steps. Cognitive-based approaches help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts, which can reduce worry in social situations and panic symptoms. Behavioral strategies involve small, structured practices to gradually face feared situations and test what actually happens.These methods are taught in simple, repeatable ways during sessions. Miriam will work collaboratively with each person to choose approaches that match their goals, preferences, and daily life. She checks in often and adjusts the plan as needed so the strategies feel useful rather than academic.
Practical benefits of online work often include easier scheduling and the ability to fit sessions into busy days. Confirm the current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online appointments can make it simpler to keep regular check-ins, try brief coaching between in-person commitments, or practice skills in real-world moments without extra travel.
