Megan Miller, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Megan!

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I have been practicing as a therapist for over ten years in the Los Angeles area. Before becoming a therapist, I worked in Early Childhood Education for ten years.

My focus

I have worked with individuals of all different ages, ranging from infancy to late adulthood, with all different backgrounds and experiencing a range of symptoms.

My approach

I take a client-centered approach to the support I provide and value all of an individual's life experiences that have brought them to where they currently are.

My communication style

I believe it is important to provide a calm, empathetic space for individuals to feel safe and comfortable sharing about themselves. I am an active listener and use restating as a tool to make sure I have heard what the client wants to communicate and express in sessions.

My journey to mental healthcare

As I became more interested in trauma and its effects, I pursued training in Marriage and Family Therapy. Looking through an attachment-based lens, I believe it is important to acknowledge and consider how early life experiences and generational experiences impact an individual.

My goals for you

Exploring and setting goals is something that starts early in services; however, it can transform and be reassessed throughout services. I encourage clients to share and set goals that reflect what they would like to see take place during sessions and the change they would like to experience while attending therapy.

Our first session

During our first session, we will explore what led you to therapy and the goals that you have for therapy. This is also a time to explore past experiences with therapy and what was and wasn't supportive of you in the past. It is a time to start getting to know each other and build rapport.
