About Myriam

Myriam Nunez, LCSW, helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and big life changes. She offers a calm presence and practical support for those who feel overwhelmed or stuck. Many people seek her help for caregiver stress, communication problems, or the emotional weight of guilt and forgiveness.

Myriam draws on eight years of social work experience in California. She focuses on building an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can speak freely about their thoughts and feelings. Sessions tend to center on clear goals and small, achievable steps that feel useful between meetings.

In sessions she listens closely and helps people name what matters most to them. She uses straightforward tools to manage anxiety and to find ways forward after loss. She also supports people navigating pregnancy, childbirth, and women's issues, helping them sort priorities and cope with change.

Myriam helps clients work through motivation challenges and strengthens self-esteem with concrete strategies. She pays attention to communication patterns and offers ways to practice new approaches. Her style is steady and practical, with room for patience as change happens.

Signing up begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling based on availability. Myriam notes that Kaiser Permanente members cannot be accepted through this platform.

Evidence-based techniques and how they work online

Myriam uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and emotional processing. One common approach she uses helps people learn concrete tools to manage anxiety and stress through breath work, grounding, and step-by-step behavioral changes to reduce overwhelm. This kind of work is useful when symptoms interfere with daily routines or sleep.

Another approach focuses on grief and loss by creating space to name difficult feelings and gradually build routines that support healing. This involves checking what matters most to the client and testing small changes that can ease day-to-day coping. These methods are aimed at improving functioning and mood through repeated, manageable efforts.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and life demands and will adjust techniques as needed. That means trying methods and refining them together until they fit the client’s needs.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because formats are not listed in the biography. Ask about the available online session options when you schedule. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins on hectic days, or letting someone use video or phone options depending on comfort and bandwidth.
