About William
William "Peter" Miller is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with three years of clinical experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, anger, relationship and family concerns, grief, trauma and abuse, issues around intimacy, and codependency-related patterns. He also supports people dealing with parenting challenges, ADHD, sleep and eating problems, and career or life-change stresses.
Peter uses a straightforward, conversational approach in sessions. He treats people as experts on their own lives and offers practical feedback. He leans on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centered principles, helping clients notice patterns, try new actions, and reflect on what matters to them.
In practice he draws from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and mindfulness techniques when they fit a person's goals. That can mean learning concrete skills for managing strong emotions, practicing focused attention, or building tolerance for distress. He blends those tools with open discussion about values and daily choices.
Peter has experience working with parents, adoption and foster care situations, and people in addiction treatment. He spends time learning a client’s story and the small obstacles that keep them stuck. Sessions focus on clear steps people can use between meetings and on tracking what helps.
People who want a direct, skills-oriented counselor often choose to work with him. He asks practical questions, reflects what he hears, and suggests experiments clients can try. If you want to explore boundaries, people-pleasing, or patterns tied to someone else’s substance use, he can help you map out next steps.
How sessions work
How his therapeutic methods translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so clients can name their goals and priorities. Online sessions can still use this approach by keeping conversations focused and using check-ins to track what matters most.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, then tests practical changes. Online work often includes brief homework, worksheets, and real-time problem solving to try alternative responses between sessions.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. These skills can be taught in short practice segments and repeated during online meetings so clients get hands-on experience.
Finding the best approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each client to decide which methods fit their goals and day-to-day life. That choice can shift as progress is made or challenges change.
Confirm the session formats available before booking, since the biography does not list them. Many people find online meetings help fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, or make it easier to keep regular appointments without extra travel. The focus stays on what skills and steps will move things forward in everyday life.
