Getting to know Michael Miller

While working with me, you will likely find that change flows naturally when you have professional support and effective tools. My 18 years of social work experience and psychodynamic psychotherapy training at NYU will guide your journey in healing and teach you how to cultivate satisfying relationships with yourself, partners, peers, and family members. My approach My mission is to hold space for my clients to diminish old patterns that create unnecessary suffering and foster awareness that builds an intentional, healthy self-concept. I strive to assist my clients with identifying and negotiating their own needs through assertive behaviors and non-violent communication. We examine unskillful habits of mind to let go of the past, accept lack of control over future outcomes, and promote happiness in the present. I hope that my clients will begin to relate to significant others with compassion and kindness that allows smoother collaboration on solutions as an alliance. My focus My ideal individual clients have difficult life transitions and need support in self-growth. Many of my clients struggle with codependency and grapple with narcissistic abuse from toxic partners. These clients seek coping skills for painful thoughts and emotions, and desire to stop putting the needs of others before themselves. I also have a strong niche working with clients who have experienced a history of trauma from disturbing events that cause pathogenic memories to sabotage current social functioning. These clients may even be in duress due to ongoing traumatic stress in the now and express frustration with the limits of traditional talk therapy treatment. My ideal couples desire to enhance communication and solve perpetual problems that seem to cycle endlessly in patterns of defeat. These clients may need to repair trust after infidelity or negotiate conflict after complex events. Most often, some obstacles have compromised the friendship, intimacy, and cohabitation blending.
