About Miriam

Miriam Gorgboyee is a licensed clinical mental health counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger, and addiction. She speaks plainly and meets clients where they are. She encourages small steps and practical changes rather than overwhelming goals.

With 11 years of experience, Miriam focuses on clear, goal-oriented work. She uses methods that teach skills for everyday life. Sessions are shaped around what each person needs, not a one-size-fits-all plan.

Her style is respectful and compassionate. She listens first and then offers strategies that fit daily routines. Many clients are looking for tools to handle strong feelings, cope with loss, or get through major life changes, and she tailors conversations to those needs.

Miriam draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to teach ways of living in line with personal values even when emotions are hard to manage. Motivational Interviewing is used when people want support with making behavior changes, such as reducing addictive patterns.

She also brings elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy for learning emotion regulation and stress tolerance skills when feelings feel overwhelming. Miriam pays attention to co-morbidity, helping people manage overlapping concerns like anxiety with substance use or grief with depression. The work is collaborative - she helps set realistic steps and adjusts them as progress is made.

How evidence-based methods translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without letting them stop what matters most. It focuses on values and small actions that move life forward despite hard emotions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches clear skills to spot unhelpful thinking and change behaviors that keep problems going. Both approaches are practical and goal oriented, useful for anxiety, anger, depression, and coping with life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and daily life. That choice can shift as progress is made, so clients and the therapist review what helps and adjust plans together.

Session formats were not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit care into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, or offering sessions that work around work and family schedules. It also makes it possible to keep continuity of care when circumstances change. Licensed professionals tailor the approach and scheduling to match each client's needs and practical constraints.
