About Miriam
Miriam Berry is a psychotherapist based in the United Kingdom who helps people manage stress, anxiety and depression. She also supports people facing relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, eating issues and challenges linked to LGBT identity. Miriam aims to make the first steps into therapy calm and straightforward for anyone feeling unsure or anxious about starting.
Miriam works in a psychodynamic way. That means she pays attention to how past experiences shape current patterns in relationships and self‑view.
Background and approach
In sessions she talks with clients about recurring feelings and behaviours and helps them spot where those patterns began. Her style is warm and collaborative. She sees the relationship between counsellor and client as central to progress.
Miriam invites open conversation about goals and keeps sessions focused on what matters most to the person in front of her. She has four years of clinical experience and is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Miriam is a qualified, insured psychotherapist and brings that practical background into each meeting.
Therapy with Miriam usually involves looking at day‑to‑day difficulties alongside deeper personal history. Clients can expect clear discussion about patterns, straightforward language, and practical steps to try between sessions. The aim is to help people notice choices they can make and build more satisfying ways of relating to themselves and others.

Approaches Miriam lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
In sessions she pays attention to repeated emotional reactions and helps make connections between past events and present difficulties. That can make it easier to choose different ways of relating to others and to oneself.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Miriam treats therapy as a collaboration and will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. Together they will decide if psychodynamic work fits or whether to adapt the approach as therapy progresses.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text‑based messaging. Video calls suit longer conversations and face‑to‑face rapport. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a lunch break. Live chat and messaging are useful for shorter check‑ins, written reflection or when typing feels easier than speaking.
These online options aim to make therapy more flexible and accessible, so people can find a way of working that fits their life and needs.
