Hi, I'm Annie Miller!
I’m a licensed therapist with over 15 years of experience and owner of DC Metro Therapy.
I’m also someone who deeply understands your unique challenges. Whether you are dealing with chronic pain, insomnia, anxiety, or trauma, I can help.
I have personally navigated the complexities of these experiences and learned from them.
I am passionate about helping others overcome similar problems through chronic pain therapy (EAET and PRT), insomnia treatment, EMDR, mindfulness, and talk therapy, to help you make real progress. I’ve also studied neuroplasticity, and I include brain-based strategies in each of my sessions to support your well-being.
When the mind-body connection is used in combination with therapies grounded in research it is possible to treat chronic symptoms and help you discover effective tools to support you on a path to healing.
My Journey
Insomnia, chronic pain, anxiety, and trauma all have one common root cause–
Your brain
I learned this firsthand by dealing with symptoms myself and healing them.
There was a time when I found myself grappling with various symptoms that felt overwhelming to manage. I felt unheard and invalidated by the people meant to help.
I often wondered if there was hope for improvement, if things could truly get better…
Since then, I’ve gained knowledge about neuroscience and how we can rewire our brain and nervous system to improve physical and mental symptoms.
My background and experience, along with my path to overcoming symptoms, have led me to where I am today.
If you’re struggling with any of these issues, I’m glad you’re here. You can heal your chronic symptoms if you have the knowledge and tools, and the right therapist– even if therapy hasn’t helped in the past.
I am a native of the DC Metro Area and I live in Bethesda with my husband, daughter, and 2 rescue pups. I enjoy hiking with my dogs, playing tennis, and watching documentaries.
