Hi, I’m Rachael Miller, a therapist with over 20 years of experience working with high achievers and perfectionists who’ve faced childhood trauma. If you feel stuck in a cycle of stress, pressure, and self-criticism, I’m here to help you break free from the past and create a life of balance, fulfillment, and authentic success. I use evidence-based techniques like EMDR, CBT, and trauma-focused therapy to guide you on a transformative journey of healing and growth. My approach is engaging and light-hearted, blending humor, encouragement, and straight talk to create a supportive and destigmatizing environment. I understand how trauma and stress can drive your success while also creating immense pressure. Together, we’ll process those experiences, balance your expectations, and redefine success on your terms. You’ll feel empowered to overcome obstacles and achieve lasting change, with me supporting you every step of the way. In addition to my therapeutic work, I serve as the Clinical Director of Chicago Counseling and the President-Elect of EMDRIA. My experience in organization management, international partnerships, and university teaching informs my holistic approach to mental health and leadership.
