Getting to know Miriam Pappas-Nemez

Make life what you want it to be. I am here to empower and support clients to live their best lives. Please join me, and we can work to find a new way together. I hold a Master's degree in Counseling Psychology from Holy Family University and am a Licensed Clinical Counselor in New Jersey. I accept insurance and private pay in New Jersey, and private pay only in Pennsylvania. I also accept Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts insurance; MA clients must be seen virtually and reside within Massachusetts. Scheduled clients will receive an email from HEADWAY and must complete the requested billing documentation at least three days before the appointment.

What should a new client know about working with you?

New clients should know that therapy is about them. There needs to be a good fit; you should feel heard and supported. You can also be very transparent about your needs with your therapist. I will be sensitive to your needs and challenge you to be the best version of yourself. I always meet my clients where they are and without judgment. I use homework assignments to help us reach stated goals while using solution-focused and person-centered therapies. I am a clinically trained therapist, meaning I will use the best treatment modalities that are best suited for each client.

I have been in therapy for close to 20 years. I’ve had about 5 therapist, including Miriam. She is absolutely the best therapist I’ve ever had. She is compassionate, kind, empathetic, caring and supportive. I immediately felt so comfortable speaking with her in the first 5 minutes of my first session. I don’t feel embarrassed to hold anything back. I feel I could/can tell her anything about my life or the thoughts in my head. She will not judge me at all. She is amazing at her job. She has gotten me to push some boundaries for the better. She truly does care about each of her clients. You would not be just a number to her. She will help you get through your battles doing it yourself, while routing you on. Due to our professional relationship, we cannot be friends. However, if I was not a client of hers, I could absolutely see myself having her as a trusted friend in my life. I would highly recommend her as your therapist, but only if you are looking for the best. She is top notch. A+++
She’s a great listener. She’s not there to tell you what your problem is. She’s there to help you figure out on your own what the problem is and them help you with tools to resolve it. Her first concern is your overall well-being.
Miriam was excellent. She did a great job of working with me, and was always direct, professional and focused on the issue at hand. I would highly recommend.
I worked with Miriam as my therapist for about a year. I have grown so much as a person because she provided me with the support, confidence and tools to do so. I always looked forward to my sessions with Miriam because I knew I would always feel better and in a good head space after them. I have been able to get help with my depression and anxiety and learned new tools on how to treat myself better in the process because of Miriam. I would only recommend Miriam to anyone who needs a safe and supportive space to talk. It never felt like therapy but more like I was talking to a friend who really cared about what I was going through and I’m forever thankful for her for helping me get to where I am.
Very professional and caring. Help me a lot with expressing my thoughts in spanish too because I speak English as a second language.
