Miriam was extremely helpful, patient and understanding. I loved working with her. She had a very unique perspective on things and helped me realize things on my own. Highly recommend you work with Miriam if you’re looking to grow and improve your mental health and well being.

I'll be honest, I was always a bit wary about therapy, but Miriam changed all that. From the get-go, she made me feel like I was chatting with an old friend rather than speaking with a therapist

One of Miriam's greatest gifts is her knack for making you feel at ease. She knows how to ask the right questions. Opening up was never easy for me, but Miriam created a space where I always felt comfortable.

If you're looking for someone who combines professionalism with genuine care, look no further than Miriam.

Miriam puts a great deal of effort into planning her sessions which are very thought provoking. She has a very pleasant manner and is able to illicit thoughts and feelings from her participants.
She is very easy to engage with. I enjoyed her Olli class very much. She devised an interesting format.

Miriam is the leader of the Growing Wiser Group which meets at the Davie JCC. Its purpose is to reflect, educate ourselves and help us to live a better, happier more meaningful life. Miriam is outstanding and very dedicated to creating a safe, expressive and interesting environment. With discussions, videos, and creative tools she has helped so many who attend her weekly sessions. They are always relevant, interesting and helpful. The JCC is fortunate to have her facilitate this diverse and intelligent group…. Some who travel from a distance because it it so beneficial. I would not hesitate to refer Miriam to anyone also seeking private counseling. She goes out of her way and cares. She is also diligent with her follow up and desire to create effective sessions. Thank you Miriam!

Miriam helped me through one of my toughest times. I was a little skeptical about speaking to a therapist in the first place, but I thought Miriam did a really good job explaining the process and making me feel comfortable right from the start. I really felt the benefits of supporting my mental health immediately and Miriam helped me to work through issues and find a place of calm in the pandemic. She was a great listener and full of helpful advice. I found myself constantly saying “that’s a great idea”! I would recommend her to anyone!!

I have known Miriam MW for a number of years and I always felt that she had a special quality: understanding people's feelings and interpreting them therefore helping out with their insecurities. During those years, I realized that she is a competent, commendable professional.
Later on I joined a group of middle aged women who under Miriam's leadership were debating intelligent situations, ingenious thoughts, and how we felt at the stage in life when children no longer needed us. The group thrived for many years through Miriam's smart, interesting topics highlighting our interests and our intellect while promoting bonding between us. I am grateful to Miriam for her contributions to our group of clever, curious, highly educated women for her inspiration, her understanding, and her help in finding a life of triumphs and satisfaction during the third stage in our journey. .

I had the pleasure to meet Miriam MW with the Growing Wiser Group for two years.
We would meet on Wednesdays. It was a group of vibrant, curious women interested to live life to their fullest.
Miriam is a pro...She created an atmosphere of fun and safety where we could be as much personal as we felt comfortable.
Activities, videos and power points integrated our conversations.
It was also a grapevine of information about doctors, dentists , cultural and social events in Miami....
I am very grateful to Miriam for the skills and the reflections she helped me map out and to the ladies that crossed my path.
Thank you.

Testimonial from Dr Edelstein, MD
It’s a distinct honor and privilege to write a note about Miriam.
I’ve known her for a few years mostly as a teacher and as a facilitator in several topics, such as resilience, grief, and as a personal and unknown to her and indirectly as my advisor. She has also conducted several workshops that were either in person or zoom.
She is an amazing psychologist, life coach, friendly and very good at all the above-mentioned tasks. She can wear many different hats and all of them very effectively and with full command of the audience. I will follow her wherever she goes. Her advice is GOLD. Best wishes to this amazing professional and continues success.
