Hello!

I'm Rhiannon Stone-Miller, MA LPCC and I'm a licensed professional counselor and art therapist providing mental health counseling for clients in Colorado. My passion is utilizing creative processes such as art, mindfulness and body awareness to support adults in navigating anxiety, grief and relationships.

I am honored to walk alongside you on your journey to deeper self-awareness, empowerment, and trust. I believe that healing begins with an empathic relationship and co-creating a safe therapeutic space. From this common ground, we can then explore your inner landscape to identify unhealthy relational patterns, locate your needs, and ultimately develop self-trust.

My Approach to Therapy:

As a contemplative art therapist, I emphasize creative expression, experiential process, and spirituality as a means of self-discovery. I believe in the healing power of empathic relationships and co-creating a safe therapeutic space. I am social justice-oriented, incorporating a keen awareness of cultural humility and trauma sensitivity.

In session, I will help you to identify unhealthy relational patterns, locate your needs, and develop trust in yourself. We will explore tools of self-awareness, such as art processes, tracking bodily sensations, and mindfulness that meet you exactly where you are. Through this, you can heal and experience a more authentic, fulfilling life.

My Ideal Client:

Are you seeking a deeper connection to yourself, in your relationships, or to your community as a whole? Is it difficult to locate your needs and desires because you are lost in a sea of thoughts? I most enjoy working with folks in this space who are eager to deepen self-awareness, explore creativity, and cultivate self-trust.

Even if you are unsure where to begin, feel overwhelmed, or find it difficult to trust yourself, I am here to support you in identifying the root of these limiting thought patterns by tending to your emotional landscape, reconnecting with yourself, and cultivating an embodied sense of inner knowing.

The Concerns I Specialize in Treating:

Counseling for Anxiety

Anxiety transitions from normal worry and stress to a disorder when it becomes persistent and pervasive in your life. While occasional nervousness and stress are common, an anxiety disorder can significantly disrupt daily functioning and overall well-being. Seeking help can be beneficial regardless of whether your anxiety meets the criteria for a disorder. The goal for our work together is to alleviate your overwhelming feelings of worry and stress, reduce physical symptoms such as racing heartbeats and breathlessness, improve sleep, and increase a sense of calm and peace in your life We will identify your anxiety symptoms and and work understanding the triggers—whether they are situations, people, or places—that exacerbate anxiety, paving the way for effective anxiety relief strategies.

Counseling for Spirituality

Although the word “spirituality” can make us think of images like meditation bells and prayer beads or religious symbols such as a cross or a bible, spirituality is a deeply personal journey that doesn't prescribe a specific appearance or practice. Holistic spiritual counseling can help guide you in discovering and embracing your core values, irrespective of outward forms or rituals and embark on a journey of self-discovery and resilience. Exploring your spirituality can be a safe space to heal from religious or spiritual trauma and reconnect with inner peace. Whether you're facing spiritual abuse or seeking to deepen your spiritual practice, I provide a supportive environment for healing and growth.

Counseling for Grief and Loss

Grief is a profound response to loss, encompassing not only the departure of a loved one but also other significant life changes or disruptions. Grief manifests in various ways—physically, emotionally, cognitively, behaviorally, and socially. You may experience changes in appetite, sleep disturbances, or increased emotional turmoil such as shock, guilt, or loneliness. Whether you're navigating your own loss or supporting someone through theirs, grief counseling can provide invaluable support and guidance during this challenging time. We'll focus on addressing, understanding, and processing intense emotions that may arise. Throughout the process, we honor and commemorate your loss.

Counseling for Relationship Issues

Managing relationships can be challenging, whether it's with a partner, family members, friends, or colleagues. While occasional conflicts and tensions are normal, seeking support can be beneficial in addressing issues, regardless. Let’s work towards improving communication, resolving conflicts, and fostering healthier relationship dynamics. My goal is to help you understand the complexities of relationships with greater empathy and resilience. By identifying patterns, triggers, and underlying emotions that affect your relationships, we can develop effective strategies to promote harmony and connection in your interactions.

Counseling for Life Transitions

Change, whether expected or unexpected, can disrupt our sense of identity and purpose, and navigating life transitions can often leave us feeling overwhelmed and uncertain. If you're struggling with a major life transition and feeling unsure about the next steps, therapy can offer invaluable support. Together, we'll work towards understanding the impact of your transition, setting achievable goals, and empowering you to move forward with resilience and purpose. Through compassionate counseling, we'll explore your strengths and values, develop practical coping strategies, and foster a deeper understanding of yourself to navigate this period of change successfully. By addressing the emotional challenges and uncertainties that arise during transitions, we can pave the way for personal growth and a renewed sense of direction in your life journey.

My Story:

I became an Art Therapist in Colorado because I have always loved supporting others and believe in the healing power of the creative process. As a young adult, I found myself enveloped by anxious thoughts, disconnected from my body, and stuck in unhealthy relational patterns. After setting a final boundary in a harmful romantic relationship, I found my way to therapy and began emotional healing. I also began to reconnect to my creative process, which helped me rediscover my identity and strengthened my capacity to trust myself.

I followed the thread of healing to graduate school to pursue my Master’s in Counseling. During my time in graduate school, I cultivated the art of slowness and discovered deeper embodiment which supported me in integrating my own emotional healing. I then had the opportunity to work at a community clinic where I supported clients from diverse backgrounds in exploring their emotional landscapes and witnessed the transformational power of art therapy firsthand.
