About Dana

Dana Miller is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Georgia with 13 years of experience. She works with adults who are managing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. She also focuses on issues like abandonment, adoption and foster care histories, caregiver stress, codependency, and feelings of emptiness.

Dana keeps conversations straightforward and practical. She uses methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, mindfulness, and solution-focused work to help people notice patterns and try small, manageable changes. Sessions emphasize clarity about next steps rather than long theoretical talks.

In-session she helps people identify automatic thoughts, practice skills for emotional regulation, and try brief experiments that test what does and doesn’t help. Mindfulness techniques are offered to support attention and reduce reactivity. Solution-focused strategies are used to set short-term goals and track small wins.

Dana adapts the pace to each person. She works with people who are facing relationship crossroads, recovering from past abuse, coping with chronic stress, or rebuilding confidence after major life events. Sessions aim to make feelings more understandable and to create practical ways to act differently.

Her approach is direct and respectful. She invites clear feedback so therapy stays relevant to real life. To begin, follow the steps to view online therapy options and schedule a first session.

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test different thoughts and behaviors to reduce distress. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress by breaking problems into small, manageable steps.

DBT, or Dialectical Behavior Therapy, emphasizes skills for regulating intense emotions, tolerating distress, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. It can be useful when strong reactions or relationship conflict get in the way of daily life.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose approaches that fit their goals and preferences, and adjusts methods as progress is made.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online session options before booking. Many people find online sessions helpful because they can schedule therapy around work or caregiving, avoid travel time, and fit shorter check-ins into a busy day. Discuss available formats when you complete the initial questionnaire so sessions can be arranged to fit everyday life.
