Additionally, I am a licensed clinical social worker and possess qualifications as a clinical social work supervisor.

FREE consultations! Are you feeling stuck in negative thoughts, intense emotions, or behavioral patterns that don't serve your best interest? I believe the process of change through therapy should not only involve self-understanding and insight into the past, but beyond that it should also focus on helping clients to learn skills for present-time challenges. Therefore my approach helps clients to develop specific skills for thinking and acting in constructive ways. I am a proponent of therapist actively collaborating with a client to help him/her find ways to manage life better.

I believe that the quality of our mind shapes the quality of our life. You can regain the freedom to choose how you feel and respond to challenges and difficulties while nurturing richer and happier relationships. My experience and training revolve around four major areas: anxiety, depression, trauma, and cancer. I know how to address your psychological distress with empathy and support, harnessing your strengths to master new coping skills. I view therapy as a collaborative effort and continually seek out feedback as to how treatment is progressing.

Therapy gives us an opportunity to look at the problem areas in our lives in a safe and non-judgmental environment so that we can find ways to make the changes we desire. As a licensed professional counselor with years of experience working with individuals, couples and families, Dr. Milson helps manage the feelings associated with life's struggles; recognize, understand, and change self-defeating patterns; heal past pain; discover and foster inner strength; and learn new ways to cope that allow a person to live authentically.

My ideal client is one whom truly desires to heal. The work they see us putting into their therapy and healing as a team within session, is the same work they want and challenge themselves in implementing outside of the therapy setting. I work my best with adolescents, and love when parents have the ability to respect their child’s treatment boundaries but are involved enough to be receptive to their child’s needs. Ultimately however, it does not matter the client’s age or issue, as long as they are as committed to their growth as I am. That is ideal.

When seeking professional therapy services, you owe it to yourself to make an informed decision. At Stone Creek Psychotherapy, I assist individuals, couples, and families in creating strategies for positive change. While I've completed advanced training in various therapeutic techniques, I know that no single approach works every time for everyone. I provide experiences where together we can understand the issues at hand and what is needed in your specific situation for change to occur. In addition to discussion and exploration of issues contributing to your struggles, we may use assessments and interest surveys to increase understanding and awareness.
