Mark Miller

Mark Miller is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on helping people facing eating and food-related concerns alongside stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles. He listens without judgment and works at each person’s pace to build practical skills and clearer thinking. Mark aims to help people feel more able to handle daily pressures and move toward goals that matter to them.

He brings 18 years of experience across many settings. His background includes community mental health, substance abuse treatment, HIV medicine, reproductive health, managed care, and private practice. Much of his clinical work has been with gay and queer men, and he has led groups for people living with HIV. He is based in Pennsylvania.

Mark uses approaches that center the person and their story. He draws on client-centered methods to follow what a person brings to sessions, and narrative work to help reframe difficult experiences. He also uses mindfulness tools to steady attention and psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat over time.

He completed a Bachelor of Arts in Communications at Temple University in 1989 and a Master of Education in Counseling Psychology at Temple University in 2000. He became a Licensed Professional Counselor in 2005 and continues to bring years of practical clinical experience to his work.

Outside of therapy, Mark is an artist and a film photographer who works mainly in black and white. His artistic practice informs his attention to detail and patience in sessions, and he aims to create a calm, thoughtful space for people to talk through challenges.

How Mark's Approaches Fit Online

Client-centered therapy focuses on following each person's concerns and goals. In online sessions this means the conversation stays grounded in what the client brings, and the therapist adapts pacing and interventions to match their needs. Narrative therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and helps rewrite those stories in ways that reduce shame and increase agency. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention practices that can reduce anxiety and increase awareness of eating patterns and emotional triggers.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and is worked out together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try different ways of working, and adjust methods based on what feels most helpful. This is a collaborative search rather than a fixed prescription.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow people to meet during a lunch break or between errands. It can also allow shorter check-ins when needed or sessions that focus on practices like guided mindfulness exercises without requiring extra travel.
