About Mark

Mark Miele is an LPC based in Alabama who brings ten years of clinical experience to work with people facing a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, addictions, anger, bipolar disorder, depression, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, self-esteem and career challenges, and compassion fatigue.

Background and approach

He also addresses additional focus areas such as personality and mood disorders, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, panic attacks, phobias, dissociation, and issues related to domestic violence and substance use. He frames therapy around the conviction that each person is the expert on their own life and already possesses strengths that can support change.

His style emphasizes collaboration and empowerment, helping clients identify practical skills and perspectives that foster coping and growth. Mark blends cognitive-behavioral techniques with client-centered principles, dialectical behavior strategies, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing to tailor a plan that fits individual goals.

Mark accepts clients who prefer online care within the United States and conducts sessions in English. He supports beginning steps toward healthier routines and clearer thinking while offering steady guidance through difficult transitions and chronic challenges.

Using evidence-informed approaches in online care

Mark integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy into online work to address thoughts, emotions, and behaviors with concrete tools. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety, low mood, and problematic coping. DBT contributes skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness to help manage intense feelings and improve relationships.

He also draws on client-centered principles that prioritize the client's perspective, fostering a respectful, nonjudgmental space where goals and preferences guide the process. Selecting the right mix of approaches is collaborative; the therapist partners with clients to explore what feels most useful and adjusts methods based on progress and changing needs.

Online formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging offer flexibility for people balancing work, family, and other commitments. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, practice skills between sessions, and access support from different locations within Alabama and elsewhere in the United States with a licensed professional.
