Meredith Milke, LMFT, LCMHC
**I am not taking new clients at this time.***
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist & Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor serving the Chapel Hill, Durham and surrounding areas. With 20 years of experience working with adolescents, adults & families, I have developed a therapeutic style to include a bio-psycho-social-spiritual approach. We will explore your relationships, environment, recent life events and stressors to gain perspective of how you are affected emotionally, physically and spiritually.
In our sessions, we will focus on how you handle stress, relational dynamics, self-esteem and your goals. As we build our therapeutic relationship, we will develop your coping skills, communication strategies and your ability to emotionally express yourself so that you can better communicate your wants and needs out in the world. It is vital to explore your exercise, nutrition, sleep and spiritual habits as part of your progress toward wellness. I am able to integrate my clinical and theological training in our work if that is something you desire.
I especially enjoy working with women & couples around these issues:
Anxiety & Stress
Self-esteem & personal growth
Career transition & goals
Depression
Family dynamics
Shame resilience
Distress tolerance
Relationship issues, Separation Coaching and/or Divorce Recovery
Spiritual development and/or processing religious doubts, questions & pain
Grief & Loss
Miscarriage & infertility; postpartum
EMDR – Trauma Processing
My training includes a Masters Degree in Counseling from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary. I worked for 6 years for a community mental health agency providing therapy to many clients with diverse needs. I have been in private practice for 10 years and will pull from a variety of approaches to tailor our work to your needs/goals. I have concentrated training in these models:
Emotionally Focused Couples & Individual Therapy Model
Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR Trauma Processing Therapy)
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)
Internal Family Systems
Satir Model
Prepare & Enrich Assessment tool for premarital counseling
