Rick Miller, LPC — Therapist in Missouri

Hi there, I'm Rick!

I have a heart to serve others. I analyze problems and look for answers. I like to help those with low self-images and those in poor relationships resolve their inner conflicts and find answers and peace.

My focus

I like to help those who have trouble finding their value and dealing with challenges. I know that change can be hard, but it can also be permanent and satisfying. Some clients take time to clarify in their own minds where they want to be.

My approach

My approach to therapy is insight-oriented, helping to find answers and how to improve things. People need to feel valued and understood. Sometimes, they need the courage to change.

My communication style

It is satisfying to develop a relationship of trust with your counselor. It makes therapy something to look forward to and to grow during. I help you find words or ask about possible issues. Some clients know exactly what they want to say. Some struggle.

My journey to mental healthcare

I got into therapy looking for answers to a bad childhood. My view of God changed to a patient one who gets involved in the nitty-gritty of life. I now see the value humans have to God and the capacity to change.

My goals for you

I find clients usually have an idea of the main goal, but may benefit from having it stated. Clients usually are comfortable and satisfied when their goals are complete, and have an inner peace when ready to discharge.

Our first session

I will gather information that helps me get to know you in the first session. After that, I will encourage you to lead us in grasping issues you want to heal from or change.
