Our greatest growth happens during our toughest times, and you may be enduring such a time – whether in your relationship, or as an individual. You may be struggling in your relationship – you may be having trouble communicating, talking over each other, arguing, and saying hurtful things. You may feel disconnected and lonely. You may be struggling with intimacy, longing for that spark that once existed but is nowhere to be found. You may feel like you’re not seen, heard or valued in your relationship. You may be struggling to work through a betrayal – you may want to get to the other side, but you just don’t know the way.

It's so hard to be you isn't it? Being in a relationship and not feeling heard. Your needs not getting met. You're questioning if you should stay or leave. You've tried communicating in every way you can think of or not communicating and letting things "slide", but nothing changes. The frustration and resentment just builds. Before you make the decision to leave or decide to just sweep it under the rug and continue to be in pain, let me work with both of you.

I look forward to helping you explore the dynamics of your relationships. We can identify long-term interpersonal patterns that may interfere with your happiness, and devise strategies for meaningful changes in your life. Using a trauma-informed cognitive-relational approach, I can help you understand how earlier events and experiences have shaped your view of yourself, others, and the world. We will work on identifying and altering the patterns that may get in the way of sustaining satisfying, healthy relationships. Alternative lifestyles welcome.

I take a personal, relatable approach to working with all of my clients. I sincerely care about helping my clients gain clarity and insight while progressing towards developing the skills necessary to independently problem solve in the future. I do feel that we sometimes need to look backwards and work through past issues in order to lay a better foundation for the present. I will always seek to speak the truth with grace, even though it may be difficult to hear, in order to ensure that my clients have the information they need to make the best decisions for their situation.

Do you feel stuck? Growth begins when one is willing to take the first step. I help clients feeling stress in relationships due to infidelity, betrayal, boundary issues, narcissistic abuse and manipulation. I also work with clients recovering from substance abuse and/or struggling to manage anger, anxiety, depression, work stress and life transitions. I meet clients where they are and partner with them to face their problems and move forward. I use a trauma informed relational style, CBT, DBT and other therapeutic approaches to empower individuals to realize their greatest potential to overcome challenges and get unstuck.

Therapy provides a space for you to connect and trust yourself to get to those answers.

Dr. John K. Miller is a former full professor of therapy in the US and China and is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in the US. He has been in clinical practice for the past 30 years, specializing in individual, couples and family therapy. His philosophy and approach to treatment considers the context in which problems occur and the relationships between the people involved. With this in mind, he will occasionally ask for family and significant others to participate in treatment (only with your consent).

The pain of splitting up or staying together in misery is obvious. Most couples have a shared history, worthy of making every effort to stay together and figure things out. Couples with children have an extra incentive to stay together. The financial and emotional costs of divorce can be devastating. Our model of tailored treatment provides greater opportunity for success for relationships in crisis. While sometimes effective, traditional marriage counseling and couple's therapy consists of hour-long therapy sessions once per week. We find this approach severely limiting and even potentially harmful for relationships in severe distress.

You feel more like roommates than lovers. You're wondering, "What’s happened to us?" Everything gets swept under the rug with no resolution. It's a vicious cycle. You feel sad, confused, anxious, alone or even depressed. The relationship is in crisis, and you feel stuck. We can help! Our team of trusted therapists are ready to take your call. We create a confidential, safe space for our clients. Call or email TODAY to set up your complimentary consultation.
