Scott Mills, LPC

Scott Mills is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia who supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles. He works with individuals coping with trauma, addictions, and issues around self-worth. He has five years of clinical experience and focuses on practical steps people can use day to day.

He aims to make sessions collaborative and straightforward. Conversations often center on what is happening now and what changes feel realistic. Scott helps clients identify patterns, set small goals, and try new ways of handling difficult moments.

Scott draws on methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, and mindfulness practices. He uses these tools to help process past hurts, reduce overwhelming feelings, and build coping skills. Sessions include teaching skills, practicing new responses, and reviewing progress together.

He pays particular attention to people who have served in the military or worked as first responders, and to those feeling isolated or dealing with shame and guilt. Scott also supports people navigating career stress, intimacy concerns, and identity issues related to LGBT experiences.

His approach is direct but compassionate. He works at the client’s pace and focuses on clear, manageable steps that fit daily life. To begin, readers should use the site's Start Therapy flow to match and schedule with him.

How these approaches work in online care

Scott uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. CBT sessions often involve setting clear goals, homework between meetings, and step-by-step skill practice to reduce anxiety or manage mood.

He also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing to process traumatic memories and reduce their intensity. EMDR combines focused memory work with guided bilateral stimulation and can help people feel less triggered by past events.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, past experiences, and what feels comfortable. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as needed.

Confirm the session formats available before booking so you know how meetings will be held. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins during a work break or between activities. It can also let people choose meetings that best match their energy level, such as shorter check-ins or full-length sessions.
