About Mark
Mark Miele is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Alabama with 10 years of clinical experience. He works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, anger, bipolar disorder, depression, grief, relationship and family concerns, and related issues. Sessions focus on practical steps people can use day to day.
He frames the client as the expert in their own life and uses that perspective to guide sessions. Conversations tend to be direct and goal-focused. He draws on strategies from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to help people notice patterns and try different responses.
Mark also uses client-centered methods and mindfulness techniques to increase awareness of thoughts, emotions, and bodily signals. Motivational interviewing is part of his approach when someone is weighing change or struggling with substance use. These tools are combined to suit a person’s goals rather than as fixed rules.
Sessions look at concrete problems like snapping at loved ones, building resentment, or struggling with anger at work. He helps people identify triggers, test new coping skills, and practice them between meetings. Progress is tracked in simple, measurable ways so people can see what is working.
His background includes ten years working with mood disorders, trauma-related concerns, and addictions. He offers direct, practical support that focuses on skills and behavior. People who want clear steps and steady feedback will find this approach straightforward and accessible.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Mark commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy in session. CBT helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and test new behaviors. It is useful for anger tied to rumination, anxiety, or work stress. DBT teaches concrete skills for managing strong emotions, improving distress tolerance, and repairing difficult interactions with others.He also brings client-centered listening and brief mindfulness practices into sessions. Client-centered work means the therapist follows the person’s priorities and reflects what matters most to them. Mindfulness practice helps ground attention so someone can notice early signs of irritation and try a different response.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process. He will work together with each person to choose approaches that match their goals, background, and how they prefer to work. That collaborative decision-making continues as progress is reviewed and skills are adjusted.
Confirm current session formats before booking so you know what is offered. Online options can make it easier to fit therapy around work, allow a shorter check-in when time is limited, or avoid travel time. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and skills practice to remote sessions so people can apply them in everyday settings.
