Ventura, CA - Accepting clients in CA
Healing begins when you are honest with yourself about what’s not working. But getting raw and real can be difficult with people who know you– or think they do. Their view of you, expectations and agendas influence what you feel safe to share. This is where the magic of therapy comes in: it offers a space for an honest conversation between you and another human being–one where you can finally get real.
We all need to feel felt—to be seen and understood. We yearn for a safe space where we can speak openly about what we’ve experienced and embrace all parts of ourselves. This kind of authentic connection helps us make sense of why we think, feel, and act the way we do–and to discover who we are beneath the stories and defenses. This is the key to real, lasting change.
I bring 30+ years experience guiding people on their path. My approach is collaborative, although clients often say they are grateful to have a therapist who can be direct in service of their growth.
A former yoga teacher and massage therapist, I focus on embodied healing. I’m also a published author and professional editor—and yes, I’ve been to Burning Man (several times).
I have worked with all sorts of people—from Silicon Valley CEOs to moms who lost custody of their kids to addiction. I work with artists, athletes, dancers, writers, and hold a special place in my heart for geeks and those who’ve lost capacity after an accident or injury. I weave bio-hacking principles into therapy for those who want optimal vitality.
It is possible to transform emotional pain into a deep sense of being at home in your own skin. There is a calm, wise essence within you that knows the way to healing. Let’s explore this together.

Greetings. I’m David Joel Miller, licensed in California as a Marriage and Family Therapist and a Professional Clinical Counselor. Before entering private practice, I worked as a substance abuse counselor and for my local County Behavioral Health. I specialize in helping clients navigate life’s transitions and overcome depression, anxiety, and substance use disorders.
After working as a substance abuse counselor and then a marriage and family therapist, I also completed the requirements for licensure as a professional clinical Counselor. I am also a certified life coach. I think of myself as an indoor mountain climber. I don’t like getting out in the cold and rain, but I do like taking on new challenges. I read a great deal and have learned a lot, but I continue to learn more things each day. Like most people my age, I have the frustrations of coping with technology. But one of my interns taught me how to answer texts, and now my younger family friends are teaching me how to use iPads and streaming videos. I hope that these experiences give me some insight into how things are changing and how some things don’t change at all. I’d like to accompany you as you try to work through your life challenges.

Oceanside, CA - Accepting clients in CA
My work focuses on targeting ineffective behaviors, habits, and beliefs around anxiety and depression. I believe in taking a collaborative approach to helping clients reach their goals. My approach to therapy varies based on the needs of each client I work with. I most frequently use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy as both modalities help me and the client build a shared understanding of their reality, and allow us to work together to chart a path forward.

Ontario, CA - Accepting clients in CA
Welcome, you made the first step in seeking help. Requesting for help has never been easy. We are often consumed and overwhelmed, with our daily activities that we forget the most important person to care for, which is ourselves. As a Licensed Marriage Family Therapist, my goal for Therapy is to make each client feel safe and provide a professional and supportive environment. Our Mental Health is so important and often ignored. As humans, we desire to be heard and understood and struggle to express this need. My background consists of working with Behavioral Problems, Crises, Couples, Families, and Individuals.
