Jody Miller, MFT

I’m an Addiction Psychologist in Bala Cynwyd, and having grown up in Philadelphia, the son of a psychiatrist and social worker (both a curse and blessing at times in my life but that’s a story for another place) and so I know a lot of therapists and counselors who treat addiction in Philadelphia. Addiction psychiatrists, psychologists and counselors can be odd birds and we get into the field often for personal reasons. In full disclosure, I was a cocaine addict and alcoholic and used whatever substances I could find. That was about 25 years ago. So I know it’s hard to find a solid addiction therapist. In addiction the field is replete with savvy marketers and conglomerate rehabs with little evidenced based backing and knowledge about the very real and wide range of addiction treatment that is available to individuals who need a non-​one-​size-​fits-​all approach to treatment. Jody Miller is a down to earth no nonsense therapist who can meet people where they’re at with drug or alcohol issues. She won’t take away your substance use if you’re not ready to give it up but she’ll challenge you which you are ready for or you wouldn’t be reading this Unilocal review. Whether you want to cut back your drug use or stop altogether she has a range of experience to help you. If you’re wanting to work on a drug or alcohol issue, relationship issue or garden variety depression (I hope that’s not making light of depression), Jody is easy to talk to and has vast experience and excellent training. Please tell her I said hello… Jeremy Frank PhD CADC, Clinical Psychologist and Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor, Philadelphia PA.

I’ve had a lot of experience with mental health professionals on a networking and personal level and Jody is one of the most reliable, professional, and helpful individuals I’ve encountered. Her ability to work with a variety of issues without making one feel broken or inferior is incredible. It’s not easy to admit you want/​need therapy, but Jody makes an otherwise scary and uncertain experience much more comfortable.
Therapy, of course, is all about one’s commitment and desire to make necessary changes, but I’m convinced that Jody has a very special skill in helping the normally abrasive and defensive individual realize that needing help isn’t a weakness, but a strength.
Jody’s genuine caring, yet professional approach to therapy/​counseling is remarkable and has made my personal and business relationships much more rewarding, healthy, and beneficial.
Thanks, Jody!

I was a patient of Jody’s for years. After looking for a therapist since my teens Jody was the only person that actually helped me. I now have the tools I need to strive in life. I would recommend her to anyone in need of counseling.
