Getting to know Asher Miller

Asher Miller is an ANCC Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner licensed provider specializing in medication management and supportive psychotherapy. He spent a decade on the front lines as an Intensive Care Nurse in Southern California. His ICU experience illustrated the glaring imbalance between medical and psychiatric care, and how mental health is often underserved or ignored in the full continuum of health. This imbalance in care influenced Asher to obtain his Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner certificate while receiving his Master’s in Nursing from Charles Drew University of Medicine and Science. With a sense of warmth, Asher offers empathetic and evidence-based practices in diagnosing and treating many mental health conditions for individuals across the lifespan. He is committed to empowering his patients through education to assist them in making the best decisions regarding their care. His specialties include, but are not limited to, Mood Disorders, Anxiety Disorders, Depression, and Attention-Deficit Disorders.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I strive to create a safe space where open dialogue and collaboration is encouraged. The initial virtual consultation provides me to opportunity meet you, understand your concerns and goals, and form a therapeutic alliance. This is followed with a comprehensive assessment to diagnose any potential psychiatric condition. This includes discussions of past medical history, current symptoms, past or current medications or treatments, and your treatment objectives. Based on this assessment, I develop your individualized treatment plan that may include psychiatric medications, supportive psychotherapy, and other holistic practices to support your unique needs. As our sessions continue, we will collaboratively evaluate progress and adjust as needed. I’m committed to empowering each patient through education and collaboration to assist them in making the best decisions regarding their wellness goals.

    I had no session, had to call his office, (phone wasn't working), called multiple m times, due lack of concern contacted ZocDoc. If individual has no respect, care, consideration of your time, this provider I highly recommend to stay away. ZocDoc was concerned and tried to reach out to Provider. Service give from ZocDoc Customer Service, was 5 start. Unfortunately, provider can careless. Good luck

    Asher took me for a last minute appointment on a holiday weekend, which I appreciated! He reached out beforehand to make sure I filled out all the proper intake paperwork and showed up on time. Asher was really attentive and had great bedside manner. I felt that he was really listening to me and cared about my needs as a patient. He took the time to go over specifics about the mechanism of the prescriptions I am taking and to review my regimen with me. I would recommend him to anyone!

    Mr. Miller sent a welcome email with links to all the necessary paperwork, saw me and immediately assisted me with my healthcare needs, and, by the way, all of this within a mere 24 hr period. He's a clear and effective communicator in person and via email which is an added bonus.

    Asher has an excellent bedside manner and listens and offers feedback at the right moments so that I really feel like I get a lot out of our sessions. He has really helped me work through my anxiety and PTSD. I have noticed how it has positively impacted my life and relationships. I could not recommend him more highly.
    Incredibly personable and easy going professional whom makes you feel like a friend instead of a client; It's easy to be open with him. He is patient, a good listener, doesn't interject bias into your particular circumstances, and most importantly, works with you to formulate a uniquely tailored treatment plan. I highly recommend him to anyone reading this, well worth the time.
    He is a wonderful provider. I’ve never had a psychiatrist take the time to talk and understand me during intake as much as he did. He took the time to evaluate me from a psychological stand point and then move onto medication management. You can tell he is passionate about what he does and cares about his patients. He typically reaches out to you a few hours before your appointment via email. Would recommend!

He’s on top of refilling my prescriptions and is open to working with my insurance to make sure I can afford my meds. He’s easy to talk to and has helped me feel stronger with coping skills and meds.
