Admittedly, life can be difficult, but after 34 years in the mental health profession I can say with certainty that hope remains an option. We struggle, we fall, we get stuck or lost and wonder if it ever gets better-the short answer is YES.

I am an experienced clinical social worker specializing in women's health, maternal health, postpartum anxiety and depression, professional stress, depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction, self-image, and eating disorders.
I recognize that navigating stressors in our current times is more challenging than ever before. Increasing professional, work, family, and other external pressures make it more and more difficult to navigate daily routines and responsibilities. Recognizing past stressors and issues and how they are impacting/limiting us can be an important aspect of therapy that I strive to help people with. Learning tools and skills to help navigate stressors is also essential in therapy to help people feel their happiest and healthiest. Feeling less stressed and less overwhelmed; feeling better about oneself; and feeling happier and less anxious!

I work with men and women who have primarily experienced sexual trauma.
My name is Rhonda Miller. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the states of Georgia and Alabama. I work with people who have experienced trauma. However, the counseling approaches that I use are helpful with many people who are recovering from a divorce or who keep entering/ending relationships that don't work. During the Initial Intake and Interview, I ask clients these questions - What do you want to work on? How will you know that you have met your goals? What will be different about you when you meet your goals?

I believe each woman has her own answers & inner wisdom.
I help women who've left painful or abusive relationships let go of shame & self-doubt so they can heal, find their voice and grow in self-confidence. I know what it's like to feel compelled to sacrifice boundaries & self-identity to adapt to unhealthy relationships or family dynamics. I can help you learn the skills and tools needed to leave behind the never-ending cycle of rock bottom and get out of 'survival mode'. Recognizing manipulation becomes easier when you understand the tactics used to side-step your boundaries. I will guide you in reconnecting to your self-trust so you can attract the relationships you deserve.

I offer a warm and safe environment where we can address sensitive topics at a comfortable pace. I believe the client is the expert of their own life and we will work collaboratively to address your goals toward change.

Female Therapists
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
