Getting to know Miriam Yael Wielgus

Miriam Yael Wielgus is a licensed social worker currently working under the supervision of a licensed practitioner. Their current employer is Beacon at Sea Counseling. I graduated from the University of Maryland School of Social Work in 2019 with a Master's in Social Work, focusing on Clinical Behavioral Health. I have worked with children, teens, and adults in various settings and life circumstances. My areas of expertise include anxiety, depression, PTSD, life transitions, self-esteem, ADHD, and family dynamics. I aim to provide tailored care for each of my clients, creating a comfortable environment for engagement, learning, and working toward personal goals.

What should a new client know about working with you?

In sessions, I strive to highlight, enhance, and build upon your strengths. Together, we can uncover and discover new skills to learn or fine tune, and help you achieve the equilibrium you are seeking. My approach to therapy is client-focused and includes CBT, DBT-informed care, trauma-informed care, motivational interviewing, and mindfulness.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

A typical session is built around and focused on you - what do you want to gain out of this session? How can we work together to take steps towards those goals? And always checking in with you on your comfortability level throughout the session and adjusting as needed.
