She seems very empathetic and unflappabble. I need both. She’s very soothing and kind, very comfortable and I get the impression that she knows what she’s doing!

Mariam is compassionate and warm, has been able to remind me of my strengths and share her insights and suggestions in a supportive way. Speaking with Mariam is like getting a much-needed hug.

I've only had a couple of sessions with Mariam so far but I felt comfortable with her instantly. She's already impressed me with the conversational way she engages; she masterfully asks questions that lead me to reframe or rethink whatever it is I'm stressing about. Mariam has been wonderful and I hope she's available and willing to be my therapist for a very long time.

Mariam is a great listener. Her response to the things that are shared with her are assessed/analyzed and given responses that are reasonable, doable, understandable and/or obtained. She helped me see things and put the right word/feeling to the things I was struggling with. Her compassion can truly be felt. I’d recommend her to a family/friend.

Mariam really does offer a safe, calm space and a compassionate listening ear for whatever you may be facing in your life. She is extremely empathetic and takes things at your pace. It is easy to feel comfortable and open up with Mariam. My sessions felt more like confiding in an old friend rather than speaking to a stranger. Thank you Mariam!

I decided to do better help because I have never done therapy and with everything going on in my life I felt it could help. I was paired up with Miriam and honestly have really enjoyed our therapy sessions. She has brought out a lot of things that I didn’t even think were contributing to my stress and have also been a great unbiased outlet for me. She is so sweet and makes me feel very comfortable.

Mariam really helped me through a rough 4 months. I was at my breaking point with my job and was having panic attacks frequently. It was effecting my personal life and my health and I didn’t know what to do I felt so stuck. She started working with me, giving me advice on setting work boundaries and helped me find the strength to look for a new job. She gave me the support I needed to help myself get into a better situation and I am very grateful for her. I would highly recommend her for anyone needing help through an issue!!

Mariam has the tools and wisdom that I lack. I'm thankful to work with such a person who does work I know I would never be able to stand up under. Again ,most thankful.
Written on Oct 27, 2021 after therapy with Mariam for 2 weeks on issues concerning family conflicts
I took an instant liking to Mariam Ross during our first session. I sought therapy for a multitude of reasons, and like so many aspects of life the multitude all orbit a fairly singular issue. Mariam has been a great source of insight as we have been working through topics, ideas, and plans. Mariam is also very adept at allowing the conversation to open up, which gives me the chance to explore my "mostly" related tangents and circle back to the task at hand. My time with Mariam is well spent, and I always look forward to our next session.

I've only just begun working with Mariam, but am happy so far. I talk a lot and she listens well. I'm sure this will adjust as our sessions move along and as needs change. Right now, being in a certain crisis mode, the order of things feels right.

Mariam has been incredibly helpful during a dark time for me. With the short time that I've known her, I already feel a little better and have the confidence that I made the right choice to reach out and ask for help. I was matched with a phenomenal therapist.

We are only a few sessions into our time together but Miriam has been a huge support. She offers empathy, and makes me feel that my thoughts and emotions are completely valid - while also helping me focus on my goals in therapy. There is no either/or, we move at my pace and she always has new suggesti
