Jessica Miller
MSW, LCSWJessica Miller MSW, LCSW
She/Her/HersEducation
Masters of Clinical Social Work - University of St Thomas
Clinical Approach
I provide individual therapy to children, adolescents and adults, with a strong emphasis on trauma-informed care. My work centers on helping clients heal from trauma, attachment wounds, and distressing life experiences that impact emotional well-being, relationships, and self-worth.
I integrate evidence-based and experiential approaches, including Brainspotting, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), DBT skills, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and trauma-focused interventions. Brainspotting allows us to access and process trauma stored in the body and nervous system, often reaching deeper healing than talk therapy alone.
My therapeutic approach is person-centered and collaborative, grounded in empathy, nonjudgmental acceptance, and emotional safety. I work with clients to identify and shift unhelpful patterns of thinking, behavior, and emotional responses, supporting lasting change and increased self-understanding. My goal is not only symptom relief, but helping individuals build resilience, develop effective coping strategies, and move toward long-term stability and maintenance.
Outside of work, I enjoy being outdoors, spending time with my family, practicing hot yoga, exercising, traveling, cooking, watching my kids play sports, snowboarding, and playing sand volleyball.

I believe in creating an environment where people are able to express themselves fully.

I tailor the therapeutic experience for each individual, utilizing trauma-informed approaches from Psychodynamic Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Narrative, Motivational Interviewing, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques. I place a strong emphasis on building on the strengths and resources an individual already has to assist them in navigating life's stressors and mental health conditions.
