About Dana
Dana Miller is a licensed marriage and family therapist with over a decade of experience supporting people who feel overwhelmed by stress and anxiety. She focuses on helping those dealing with relationship strain, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. Her style is calm and direct, aimed at helping people feel steadier and more able to cope with daily life.
Dana uses practical talk and clear steps rather than jargon.
Background and approach
She listens first, then suggests small strategies to try between sessions. Those might include skill practice, tracking patterns, or short exercises to reduce intense emotions. Sessions are collaborative.
Dana works with each person to shape a plan that fits their goals and daily life. She adjusts approaches as progress or needs change, keeping work focused and manageable. <brWith 13 years of clinical work and a Georgia LMFT credential, Dana draws on established methods to support change.
She mixes approaches to match the concern - for example, using thought-focused work for worry and emotion skills for intense reactions. People who come to Dana often want straightforward tools and steady support. She aims to help clients build more confidence, improve communication, and reduce the hold of anxious thoughts.
The first step is a short matching process and a scheduled session to begin practical work together.
Approaches and online options that fit your life
Dana commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change thinking patterns that fuel anxiety and low mood. CBT focuses on identifying thoughts that lead to distress and testing small behavior changes to see what helps.She also uses dialectical behavior therapy skills to manage intense emotions and improve coping. DBT offers concrete techniques for handling strong reactions, tolerating distress, and improving communication with others.
Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. Dana will talk with you about your goals, try strategies, and adapt the plan based on what works. The choice of methods comes from your needs and preferences rather than a fixed formula.
Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let you work face to face from wherever you are, phone sessions can fit a break during the day or require less bandwidth, and messaging or live chat support brief check-ins and skill coaching between sessions. These options aim to make consistent care easier to schedule and use while keeping work focused on your goals.
