Miriam Werquin, LCSW

Miriam Werquin is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Louisiana with five years of master’s-level professional experience. She brings focused support to people facing stress and anxiety, helping with motivation, self-esteem and confidence, as well as depression and trauma. Miriam also assists clients who are navigating life-stage transitions and the practical and emotional changes those moments can bring.

Her work centers on creating an open, nonjudgmental environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared and explored. Miriam recognizes that taking the first step toward a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage, and she aims to provide steady support throughout that process. She listens closely to each person's story and partners with them to identify goals and practical steps forward.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that align with their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and motivation challenges by shifting attention toward meaningful goals rather than fighting uncomfortable internal experiences.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental relationship in which the therapist offers empathy and reflective listening. This approach supports self-exploration, building confidence, and working through life-stage transitions by making space for the client’s perspective.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and adjust unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors that contribute to depression and anxiety. Practical strategies from CBT can provide structure and skills for coping with everyday stressors.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Miriam works collaboratively with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and to tailor interventions accordingly. Licensed professionals and therapists often blend methods to best support a client's situation.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, maintain continuity during transitions, and receive consistent support from a licensed professional regardless of location within the therapist's service area.
