Isaac Miller, MSW, LCSW (Clinical Director)
Professional Background
I have had the privilege of working in mental health-related fields for over 9 years. Prior to pursuing my Master's Degree in Social Work, I worked within the Chicago shelter system with families experiencing homelessness. I completed my clinical education at Loyola University - Chicago. As part of this education, I worked within the Cook County Jail providing psychological assessments and mental health support for incarcerated persons experiencing severe mental illness. This was followed by a placement at a local community center providing support in their domestic violence victim’s assistance program. After completing my education, I worked at social service agencies helping those with disabilities living within nursing facilities. Subsequently, I began working as a clinical therapist at a Chicago-based private practice. Inspired by my work as a therapist, I founded Framework Therapy Group with the desire to improve access to professional and practical mental health treatment. In my spare time, I have volunteered my expertise at crisis intervention agencies and youth mentoring programs.
Approach & Areas of Expertise
I use practical, evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help patients accomplish their specific goals. Achieving goals, no matter how small, is a great way to track your own progress. Each individual is unique, so there is no one-size-fits-all method for therapy. Therapy can be challenging but simultaneously extremely rewarding.
I have extensive experience working with:
- Anxiety Disorders
- Depression Disorders
- Panic Attacks & Panic Disorder
- Borderline Personality Disorder
- Bipolar (I/II) Disorder
- Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
- Suicidal Behavior
- Self-Harming Behavior
- Divorce & Relationship Issues
- Gender & Sexuality-Related Matters
- Cult-Related Issues
- Grief
