About
I view mental health care as a partnership built on trust, empathy, and understanding. As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with experience across inpatient, outpatient, telehealth, and community-based settings, my approach is centered on meeting each person where they are, recognizing their strengths, and providing compassionate, personalized treatment that supports healing, resilience, and improved quality of life.
I am a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with a Doctor of Nursing Practice (D.N.P.) and extensive experience providing psychiatric care across inpatient, outpatient, telehealth, and community-based settings. I work with adolescents, adults, and older adults experiencing challenges such as depression, anxiety, trauma-related concerns, ADHD, mood disorders, psychotic disorders, and other mental health conditions. I partner with clients seeking greater stability, improved functioning, and a personalized treatment approach to support their mental health goals.
My approach integrates evidence-based treatment, medication management, CBT, supportive psychotherapy, motivational interviewing, and individualized care planning. I work across inpatient, outpatient, telehealth, and community-based settings to promote improved mental health outcomes.
My goal is to provide a supportive, compassionate space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered throughout your journey. I believe in partnering with each client to develop a personalized treatment plan that promotes healing, stability, and growth. If you are ready to take the next step toward improved wellness, I welcome working with you.

As one who has experienced my own traumas, losses and other "bumps in the road" life throws at us, I can identify with others in distress and try to align with them in finding their personal path to healing and empowerment.
My name is Jeff Miller, and I have been in the mental health field for over 30 years. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and a Master's degree in Social Work. My experience is varied—beginning in Cuyahoga County investigating allegations of abuse and neglect with extensive Juvenile Court involvement, then expanding to children and teens in foster care, residential treatment, and adoption settings. I have also worked with adults managing chronic or acute mental health conditions and dual diagnoses. I am open to working with most concerns, though depression and anxiety—often rooted in trauma and loss—are what I most typically address.
Building a therapeutic relationship and aligning with clients to find their “path” to healing is at the heart of my work. I help normalize certain feelings, and approach each person without judgment. I am honest and respectful of what a client can manage at any point in the process. Trust is developed and earned over time, and I fully understand that.
I look forward to meeting you and will always start from where you are. Our journey together will hopefully bring new understandings and positive life changes.

I am a LPCC-S and I got my masters degree in clinical mental health counseling at Kent State University. I primarily use narrative therapy, reality therapy/choice theory, EMDR, and ERP. I can see ages 10 years old and up and will be doing telehealth counseling only. I believe the client knows themselves more than I will ever know them and am here to help them with what I learned in school to reach their goals.
I believe we all have a story where what happened to us connects to other things that happen to us. Through mapping out your story, we can find peace in your life.
We all must choose between what is right and what is easy.

Child therapy, also known as counseling for kids, helps young individuals better understand and manage the challenges that affect their mental health. Common challenges amongst kids include behavioral issues, trauma, bullying, depression, and anxiety. All ages of children can attend and benefit from child therapy at Thriveworks .
Child therapy works by using multiple techniques tailored to fit the child’s needs based on their age group, their challenges, and the severity of their challenges. It might involve play therapy for younger kids or cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, art therapy, and others for varying ages. In any case, Thriveworks child therapists in , OH have the expertise and experience to help kids at their level.
Child therapy is a type of therapy meant for clients within a specific age group, while play therapy is an approach to therapy that helps children with self-expression and stress relief, among others. Play therapy is a technique that is often used in child therapy to help children express what’s running through their minds when they do not have the words to express their thoughts and emotions. It can get children to express what’s wrong, what might be causing unwanted behaviors, or what they might need in a way that is accessible to them so that therapists can then work to treat the issue.
It’s not always obvious when a child should see a therapist for their behavior, though in the midst of challenges like divorce, loss, bullying, and other mental health conditions, it’s often a good idea to seek it out. Common behaviors that can indicate a need for child therapy include separation anxiety, bedwetting (at inappropriate ages), and agitation/excessive irritability — especially if it reaches a point of physical violence.
Cognitive behavioral therapy at Thriveworks in , OH is one of the best types of therapy for children. However, it can be administered in child therapy sessions in a variety of ways that are more accessible to young minds, such as play therapy.
Child therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The length of child therapy depends on your child’s needs as well as the goals that you and their therapist might have for them. Generally, child therapy sessions will last for several months.
At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay. We also offer self-pay options for those out-of-network or without insurance. Self-pay rates for talk therapy range from $160 to $240 for intake sessions and $135 to $195 for follow-ups, depending on your state. For psychiatry services, self-pay intake sessions are $255–$375, with follow-ups ranging from $175–$300, also varying by state. More information on current self-pay costs is available on our pricing page.
In July of 2020, Taylor Swift released a new album called “Folklore” that sent everybody into a tizzy. Fans call this album a portal of nostalgia, and one song in particular transports listeners back to their childhood: “Seven.” In “Seven,” Swift details memories from her childhood, like drinking sweet tea, pretending to be a pirate, and visiting her friend’s supposed haunted house.
The lyrics as well as the tune of the song have a way of making you feel like you’re young again—and your own childhood memories come flooding back. The majority of these memories are probably fond memories, from playing with friends to running free in the backyard. But you might also be reminded of the trouble that you got into with your parents; or the bullies that picked on you at school; or your first breakup. The point is that childhood isn’t all fond memories and whimsical feelings. Childhood is also rife with challenges, as this is a crucial stage of learning and developing—and these challenges have shaped us into who we are today.
Please picture me in the trees. I hit my peak at seven, feet in the swing over the creek. I was too scared to jump in, but I was high in the sky with Pennsylvania under me. Are there still beautiful things?” –Taylor Swift

swing over the creek. I was too scared to jump in, but I was high in

–Taylor Swift
Swift’s song takes us back and reminds us of the importance of a happy, healthy childhood. The truth is that sometimes kids and teens face really difficult and unfortunate challenges that they must learn to overcome. The good news is that they don’t have to learn to overcome these challenges on their own. Child therapists specialize in helping these young individuals navigate this crucial stage of life, confronting the problems that they encounter along the way. If you think your child could benefit from talking to a therapist, you’re in the right place. Thriveworks Ohio Counseling has child therapy appointments available and you can schedule an appointment now.
Child therapy is a form of counseling that is catered to help children, adolescents, and teens. These age groups don’t yet have the emotional and mental capacity to properly handle many of the challenges that might come their way, from traumatic experiences to divorcing parents or other major life changes. Fortunately, therapists can step in and contribute to the betterment of these young individuals. Now, child therapy might be necessary if a child is…
In all of these situations, a child therapist can prove helpful. However, these are not the only instances in which your child might benefit from a therapist’s help. A child therapist can function as your child’s outlet each week; they’re there to listen and talk to your child about any difficult feelings he or she might be experiencing. Often, children would prefer not to talk to their parents about how they’re feeling. However, they are open to talking to a third party who they aren’t ashamed to vent to or too scared to talk to.
Counseling for kids, or child therapy, equips children with essential tools for growing well through life. These tools help them work through current and future issues, better manage stress, and navigate the wide range of challenges that frequent this stage of life. Now, the ins and outs of therapy do change on a case by case basis. Why? Because your child’s therapist doesn’t design their plan for treatment until they get to know your child, including your child’s…
These components will help your child’s therapist make a well-informed plan for treatment for your child moving forward. If you choose to pair your child with a therapist at Thriveworks Ohio Counseling, know that they are in good hands.
Child therapy at Thriveworks Ohio Counseling is here and available now. Our providers function entirely online, which means that your child will talk to their counselor via the phone or video. We’ve found that children and teens can find just as much success in virtual counseling, and we hope that you consider giving it a try.
