About Dana
Dana Miller is a licensed marriage and family therapist with 13 years of experience. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression.
Background and approach
Her style is straightforward and compassionate, aimed at making the first steps feel manageable for someone who is worried or overwhelmed. She uses approaches that focus on practical changes and skills.
Sessions are tailored to each person, with tools drawn from cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, and solution-focused strategies. This means conversations often include clear steps to try between meetings and ways to notice what is working.
Dana values respect and sensitivity in the room. She listens for what matters most to each person, and adjusts pacing and language so goals feel realistic.
Her goal is to create a place where people can talk through difficult feelings and start small, steady changes. Over the years she has helped people facing a wide range of life challenges, including abandonment issues, blended family stress, caregiver strain, cancer-related concerns, divorce and separation, and patterns like codependency and control issues.
She also supports concerns tied to aging and adoption or foster care history. Sessions are offered from Georgia and conducted in English.
Dana uses a collaborative approach so you can shape the focus and pace. Taking the first step starts with a short intake and a match to make sure the work feels right for you.
Approaches and online options that fit your life
Dana commonly draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness therapy in online work. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce stress and anxiety. Mindfulness therapy teaches ways to notice thoughts and feelings without getting swept away, which can help with mood and stress regulation.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Dana works with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and day-to-day needs. This selection is collaborative and can change as progress is made or priorities shift.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide options that match different routines. Video calls let you use visual cues and longer talk sessions. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging can be useful for shorter check-ins, quick skill reminders, or when a written format feels more comfortable. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into workdays, family schedules, or other commitments.
