Hi,
My name is Melissa Miller, and thank you for visiting my site. I look forward to meeting you and learning more about you and what has brought you here. Everyone has a story to tell that is theirs alone, and I look forward to learning more about yours.
I attended James Madison University, and then completed graduate school at Virginia Commonwealth University. I live in Hanover County, with my three teenagers, dog, and cat. I enjoy running, yoga, spending time with friends and family, and going to the beach. Connecting with people from different backgrounds and supporting them in reaching their goals is one of the reasons I became a therapist.

Personal Information
I have three children, from teen to young adulthood, as well as two furry family members. I enjoy so much of what Richmond has to offer, especially the river, the great restaurants, and being a quick drive to the beach and mountains. I am involved with a local non-profit, and I also work in as an emergency services clinician. I run, and practice yoga as much as possible.
Qualifications
I have an undergraduate degree from JMU, and obtained my Master of Social Work with a clinical concentration from VCU. I completed several internships providing community-based social work, as well as clinical work at Richmond Mental Health.
