Sherry Miller, M.S., LPC (OK, TX,WI), LCPC, (IL), LMHC (FL, MA), CSADC (IL), CSAC (WI), LADC (OK), M-CAP (FL), ICS (WI), BC-TMH. Hi there. My name is Sherry Miller. I have a Master of Science in Human Service Community Counseling from National Louis University at Chicago, IL. I pride myself in strict confidentiality; with a unique insight into my consumers. Because I have been in a program of Recovery from Alcohol, Drugs, and Codependency for the past 28 plus years I knows firsthand what it takes to find the truth of oneself and want assist you with your own unique and personal journey of self-awareness. I am dually licensed to treat mental health and substance abuse concerns. I am also licensed as an Independent Clinical Supervisor in the field of Addictions. My clinical interests include family dysfunction, addiction treatment, co-dependency, domestic violence, sexual abuse, and family, individual, or group counseling. I have over 28 years’ experience in the treatment of anger, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, behavioral issues, parent education, fearfulness, addiction issues, and co-occurring disorders. I am board certified to do telehealth (counseling over the internet) for clients that cannot make it to the office for their counseling appointment or prefer the comfort of having their counseling session in the privacy of their own home. I am experienced working with all ages, genders, and the LGBTQ community. In addition, I have experience working on a college campus with college age persons. In my free time you will find me spending time with my cats, and dogs, riding my horses, riding my bike or working out at the gym.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session we will get to know one another. I believe it is important to get a clear blue print of who/where you are and who you want to be/where you want to go. It is important that you get to know me as well, because together we are going to go on a journey that will change your life. You need to feel safe and secure with the therapist that is going to go on this life changing journey with you. If you decide to choose me, I will be greatly honored to travel with you on your road of recovery.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

Because I have been in my own recovery for the past 28 plus years, I know first hand what you are going through. And because I have done the work myself, I have the luxury of asking you to do the tough things that you need to do to become your best self with peace in your soul. "To Thine Own Self Be True".

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

CBT (Cognitive behavioral therapy) is a short-term talking therapy that involves finding new ways to approach challenges such as stress and fear. I have been using CBT in my practice for over 28 years. CBT helps persons think their way into change. CBT is useful in treating depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and other mental health conditions such as drug and alcohol addiction. I also implement motivational interviewing and strength based strategies along with CBT.
