About me
I do not believe in a "one size fits all" kind of approach. While uncomfortable feelings might be a commonality (especially in today's world,) I believe we are all individuals who learn, experience, and react to situations differently. One thing I know for sure, if everything was going "great" chances are you would not be reading this bio right now. BRAVO to you for taking this monumental step and investing in yourself!!!
Hi, I'm Masha Andreoni, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 10+ years of professional experience and 47 years of lived experience. A majority of my work experience has been spent working with Veterans and Active Duty Reservists focusing on post deployment issues, substance abuse, and military sexual trauma. Today, I work with individuals/groups/families within a multitude of populations.
Most importantly, I do not believe that individuals fit snuggly into a particular mental health "box." For example, if diagnosed with PTSD... there is a good chance that anxiety, depression, insomnia, relationship difficulties, work-related issues (etc.) may be present. If struggling with addictions...anxiety, depression insomnia, relationship difficulties, work-related issues (etc.) may be present...you get it. My focus/goal is to understand where you are coming from, what you hope to achieve, avoid making any particular judgements/labels, and work together as we embrace this journey of solution focused change and betterment.
While I can take the time to tell you how my approach is warm, motivating, understanding, open....in the end, this is for you to decide. I can however assure you that regardless of diplomas achieved, I never stopped pursuing education in this ever-changing field/world. I am here to be of service. With me comes my personality, knowledge, humor (when appropriate,) and respect! Truly looking forward to working with you.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Miriam "Masha" Andreoni. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.
Masha is amazing, she really helps me feel heard while at the same time helping me see different perspectives. I can tell she really cares and genuinely just wants to help me
Masha is great! She listens to our concerns, stays neutral when giving us ways to navigate through our issues. She is compassionate and a joy to work with.
Miriam has been amazing help with my partner and I. We are learning new techniques every time we meet. She is helping us so much and we are happy we connected with her through regain.
What is the best therapists I’ve ever had. Very responsive to my needs and she’s very accommodating with her schedule.
I really enjoy the therapy with Masha and I'm feeling more open and comfortable to therapy.
She is easy going and sticks to real facts, listens, and shoots me straight. Plus a good and safe personality.
She is so knowledgeable! She is all about the mission not the time for sure. I also like it when she can relate or share a personal story. And if not I guarantee she will make sure you are understood and not feel alone or stupid. Thank you Masha, you sure did have your hands full with us!
She doesn’t give off therapist vibes but like friend vibes with a vast amount of relationship knowledge and active listening skills and it’s very appreciated
You’ve been awesome! We look forward to continuing our counseling with you.
I’ve only had 3 sessions so far with Miriam but I am very happy with my experience so far. She seems to be very caring, attentive and understanding of what’s being said and the experiences behind the issues. I look forward to getting everything figured out in time with her help.
