You're carrying more than you have to

Who I Work With:

Thoughts that go through your head:

I'm broken. I'm weak.

I am a failure.

I'm beyond help.

What is wrong with me?

You're amazed that one little thing sends you over the edge when you used to be able to handle anything. You don't understand why you feel so fragile.

Here's the good news: DEEP HEALING IS POSSIBLE.

You don't have to feel this way. You can feel safe, peaceful, secure and like you again. Recovering from trauma and painful experiences is a three step process:

01.

Putting the pieces together

At the start your suffering doesn't make sense. You think things like 'I shouldn't feel this way' and 'I'm over-sensitive'. Yet, I've never worked with a client whose symptoms didn't make sense once we got enough information. We piece together your history and build an understanding of why you're feeling so bad.

02.

Identifying how your past experiences impact your beliefs

Trauma becomes trauma by changing what we believe about ourselves and the world. For example, "I'm not safe" is a core belief that comes from overwhelming experiences with danger. "I'm not good enough" is a false belief that comes from repeated experiences with shame.

03.

Processing the events that are fueling your symptoms

With the powerful tools of EMDR, ART, and IFS (more info about them below) we move through the painful emotions to find resolution and acceptance. When the past feels like the past, you no longer feel its pain in the present.

Hi, I'm Alec

I'm Alec Miller, a Clinical Mental Health Counselor (CMHC) based in Millcreek, Utah. I specialize in treating PTSD and complex trauma in adults, using EMDR, IFS, and ART — three of the most effective, evidence-based approaches available for trauma recovery.

My style is direct and hopeful. I won't have you talk in circles about your pain for years. We'll work with your nervous system, not just your thoughts, so healing actually sticks.
