Dana Miller, LMFT

Dana Miller is a licensed marriage and family therapist who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, trauma and self-esteem concerns. She works with adults who are trying to feel steadier, communicate better, or regain motivation and confidence. Her style is direct and compassionate, with an emphasis on practical steps you can use between sessions.

With 13 years of experience, she adapts therapy to each person’s needs instead of using a one-size-fits-all plan. Sessions focus on clear goals and small changes that add up over time. She combines strategies to manage strong emotions, rethink unhelpful thoughts, and build healthier daily habits.

Dana uses tools drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to help people handle distress and change patterns that cause pain. She also brings mindfulness and solution-focused techniques into conversations to sharpen awareness and set achievable goals.

She describes therapy as a collaborative process. Clients can expect straightforward conversation, specific skills to practice, and regular review of progress. Dana aims to make therapy practical and relevant to everyday life.

Her work includes supports related to adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, aging and geriatric issues, blended family concerns, and cancer-related strains. Dana is licensed in Georgia as an LMFT and provides services in English.

How Dana's Approaches Work Online

Dialectical behavior therapy helps people learn skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships. It teaches concrete tools for distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and clearer communication, which can be practiced between sessions.

Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress by breaking problems into manageable steps and building new coping habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Dana will collaborate with each person to choose techniques that match goals and daily life. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan based on what is working and what feels realistic.

Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, since the profile does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people practice skills in the environments where they live and work, then review how those efforts went during the next meeting.
