Our therapists offer DBT / dialectical behavior therapy in Cleveland, OH

My name is Jeff Miller, and I have been in the mental health field for over 30 years. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and a Master's degree in Social Work. My experience is varied—beginning in Cuyahoga County investigating allegations of abuse and neglect with extensive Juvenile Court involvement, then expanding to children and teens in foster care, residential treatment, and adoption settings. I have also worked with adults managing chronic or acute mental health conditions and dual diagnoses. I am open to working with most concerns, though depression and anxiety—often rooted in trauma and loss—are what I most typically address.

Building a therapeutic relationship and aligning with clients to find their “path” to healing is at the heart of my work. I help normalize certain feelings, and approach each person without judgment. I am honest and respectful of what a client can manage at any point in the process. Trust is developed and earned over time, and I fully understand that.

I look forward to meeting you and will always start from where you are. Our journey together will hopefully bring new understandings and positive life changes.

I am a LPCC-S and I got my masters degree in clinical mental health counseling at Kent State University. I primarily use narrative therapy, reality therapy/choice theory, EMDR, and ERP. I can see ages 10 years old and up and will be doing telehealth counseling only. I believe the client knows themselves more than I will ever know them and am here to help them with what I learned in school to reach their goals.

I believe we all have a story where what happened to us connects to other things that happen to us. Through mapping out your story, we can find peace in your life.

We all must choose between what is right and what is easy.
