About Mark
Mark Miller is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 18 years of clinical experience. He works with adults on relationship strain, LGBT issues, anxiety, depression, trauma and other concerns that often affect life at home. He helps people at a steady pace, focusing on practical skills and clearer understanding rather than quick fixes.
He uses client-centered work to build on what already helps a person. He also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat across relationships. Narrative and mindfulness approaches appear in sessions to help people tell their story differently and manage strong emotions in the moment.
Mark trained in counseling and education at Temple University, completing a bachelor’s in Communications and a master’s in Education/Counseling Psychology. He earned his LPC credential in 2005 and has worked in community mental health, substance abuse treatment, HIV medicine, reproductive health, managed care and private practice.
He has considerable experience with gay and queer men and has led support groups for people living with HIV. More recently he has taken an interest in aging and midlife concerns for men, and in family of origin and family problem themes that resurface as people move through adult life.
Outside of therapy he practices film photography, mostly black and white, and brings a thoughtful, observant style to his clinical work.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online work
Mark often blends client-centered therapy with mindfulness and narrative work. Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's perspective and aims to strengthen existing coping skills while listening without judgment. Mindfulness practice supports managing strong emotions and stress with attention and breathing techniques. Narrative therapy helps people separate themselves from a problem by reworking the stories they tell about relationships and identity.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to decide which methods feel most useful. Goals, life demands, and personal preference guide how sessions are structured and which tools are prioritized.
Confirm the therapist's current session options before booking, since the biography does not list specific formats. Many people find online appointments make it easier to fit therapy into their week, offer quicker check-ins, and remove travel time. Others prefer different arrangements for shorter or longer conversations depending on what suits their daily schedule.
