About Miriam
Miriam Berry is a counsellor and psychotherapist with four years' experience and a registered member of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy). She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, eating and intimacy-related issues, and those exploring life purpose after a change. She also lists LGBT concerns, relationship and family matters, and help with self-esteem and coping with life changes.
She describes her approach as psychodynamic. That means she looks at how early experiences shape current behaviour and relationships. Miriam asks about patterns that repeat and helps people notice the thoughts and feelings that drive those patterns.
Sessions are conversational and focused on what matters now, with attention to how the past still influences choices today. She aims to develop a strong working relationship and to help people consider whether existing patterns still serve them. Decisions about change are made together, not imposed.
Her areas of interest include LGBTQ issues, neurodiversity, loss, and parent-adult child relationships. She also works with additional concerns such as attachment difficulties, chronic illness and pain, codependency, fertility and end-of-life related matters.
Miriam is based in the United Kingdom and offers work in English. She is a qualified, insured psychotherapist/counsellor and holds BACP membership. To begin, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session so they can talk through needs and fit.
Psychodynamic work and remote sessions
Psychodynamic therapy focuses on how past experiences shape reactions today. It involves talking about patterns in relationships and repeated behaviours, then making sense of why those patterns continue. This approach can help with anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties and questions about life purpose.Miriam describes her work as looking at early experiences and current relationships. That means the therapist and client explore feelings and habits together and decide what to keep or change. Choosing an approach happens collaboratively, based on the person’s needs, goals and preferences.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online options before booking. Many people find online work useful because it can fit around work, reduce travel, and allow shorter check-ins when time is limited. A clear agreement about how sessions will run is part of the first meeting, and the therapist will help match the method of meeting to practical life factors.
