About Sara Miller
Sara Miller is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who brings five years of experience in the mental health field. She has been licensed since May 2025 and combines experience from work with adolescents and adults to support people through a range of challenges.
Prior to joining Betterhelp, she provided individual and group therapy for teenagers in school and juvenile justice settings, and she has three years of experience working with adults in community mental health programs. That varied background informs her ability to adapt interventions to different ages and circumstances while keeping a collaborative focus.
Sara concentrates on issues such as stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, self-esteem, and depression. Her broader clinical focus includes areas like abandonment, adoption and foster care, aging and geriatric concerns, antisocial personality, attachment issues, autism and Asperger Syndrome, body image, co-morbidity, codependency, communication problems, control issues, dependent personality, dissociation, divorce and separation, and domestic violence.
Her practice is strengths-based and integrates techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), narrative therapy, mindfulness, and solution-focused therapy. Sara works collaboratively with clients to address negative thought patterns, heal from traumatic experiences, improve communication, and support practical steps toward better day-to-day functioning. She is committed to helping people reclaim resilience and move closer to the version of themselves they aspire to be.
