Female Therapists in High Falls, NY
I take a holistic approach to healing, focusing on Psychotherapy, Art Therapy and customized nutritional choices. In my 17 years of experience working with different types of children, couples and individuals diagnosed with mental illnesses, and severe trauma or just needing to speak about what they go through in their daily life, I realized that holistic treatments are often ignored. I believe that every part of us is connected and how we think, what we eat, our habits, patterns, family history all play a role in our mental health.

Accepting new clients in NY, CT, and MA for treatment of trauma, anxiety, and depression. If you have ever felt that the way others see you on the outside doesn't match how you feel inside, then you are not alone. Most of us are able to get through the day, but beneath a high functioning exterior, we may struggle with self doubt, anxiety, imposter syndrome, and unresolved issues from childhood that just won't relent. The need to keep these hidden is exhausting, stressful, and very lonely. I would like to use my training to help you feel more at ease with yourself and happier in your relationships.

I'm Dr. Meghan Jackson Miller, and after 20+ years in practice, I've learned that the best therapy happens when someone genuinely gets it. Not from a textbook, but from lived experience. My clients tell me that when we're together, they feel like my only patient - fully seen and fully heard with no judgment. I specialize in the struggles that don't always have neat solutions: chronic pain that doctors dismiss, grief that doesn't follow timelines, anxiety that makes sense given what you've been through and depression that's lasted so long you’ve forgotten what normal feels like.

The therapy I offer is client-centered and insight-oriented. I offer traditional talk therapy and creative arts therapy, as sometimes it’s easier to communicate without words.

Female Therapists
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or because they feel more comfortable with a therapist of their own gender due to shared life experiences or perspectives. Considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender may matter or improve their therapeutic experience. The most important consideration is that a client is able to build a trusting relationship with their therapist.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist. For women, this could be because they believe that they will be able to better connect with a woman, and that a female therapist will be able to relate to their specific challenges and personal issues. It may be particularly beneficial for women to see a female therapist, for example, for gender-specific issues, such as sexism in the workplace, relationship issues, and gender roles. The most important factor in therapy is the client-therapist connection, and a therapist's gender as well as many other factors may play an important role in this.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
