Rachel Miller
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT
Couples often get stuck in patterns shaped by power dynamics, communication habits, or unspoken expectations. I work with partners to explore these dynamics, improve understanding and emotional connection, and develop practical skills for conflict resolution, communication, and fair division of labor. My approach emphasizes accountability, mutual growth, and building a partnership that reflects both partners’ needs and values.
