Intro

Welcome — I’m Jeff Miller.

I’m a calm, steady presence in emotionally complex moments, helping people feel safe, understood, and supported as they navigate behavioral health needs. 

I work in behavioral health support and patient advocacy, helping people feel grounded, respected, and cared for during some of the most difficult moments in their lives. My approach is rooted in calm communication, intuitive listening, and steady presence — qualities that help individuals and families navigate distress with clarity, dignity, and connection.

At Park Nicollet Health Services, I support both simple and highly complex behavioral health needs. Whether I’m assisting at the front line or responding to urgent calls in the Behavioral Health Call Center, I bring a regulated, compassionate presence that helps people feel safe enough to take their next step.

Advocacy is more than my role.
It’s who I am.

What I Do

I support individuals and families through emotionally complex moments, providing steady communication, patient-centered guidance, and connection to the right behavioral health resources. Whether I’m working at the front line or in the Behavioral Health Call Center, my focus is simple: help people feel safe, respected, and supported.

My role includes:

• Helping patients navigate uncertainty and understand next steps

• Offering calm, trauma-informed communication in moments of distress

• Referring individuals to clinical teams when intake or assessment is needed

• Supporting nurses, providers, and care teams with clear, timely coordination

• Ensuring patients and families receive compassionate direction during difficult experiences

Above all, I strive to create a grounding experience where people feel valued and understood.

My Approach

My approach is rooted in presence, empathy, and clarity. I slow things down, listen fully, and meet people with patience and respect — helping them feel stable enough to speak, breathe, and find their footing.

I rely on calm communication, grounded judgment, and a trauma-informed mindset to:

• reduce anxiety

• de-escalate heightened emotions

• support people through overwhelming moments

• guide conversations toward stability and next steps

Consistency is at the heart of my work. Every person deserves to feel supported, understood, and treated with dignity — especially during vulnerable moments.

🌟 Core Values

Compassion

I lead with empathy and genuine care, meeting each person with understanding, patience, and respect. I believe that compassion creates the safety people need to open up and feel supported.

Presence

I stay grounded and fully attentive, offering calm, steady communication that helps others regulate, feel heard, and move toward clarity — especially during stressful or uncertain moments.

Integrity

I show up consistently and honestly in all interactions, guided by fairness, ethics, and doing what is right. Integrity is the foundation of trust, especially in behavioral health.

Dignity

Every person deserves to feel valued. I work to ensure that individuals and families experience respect, autonomy, and a sense of being cared for as whole people, not problems to solve.

Clarity

I believe communication should be simple, direct, and supportive. Clear guidance helps reduce fear, confusion, and overwhelm — allowing patients to understand their next steps with confidence.

Advocacy

I stand with patients and families to ensure they are respected, informed, and connected to the right resources. Advocacy isn’t an added skill — it’s who I am.
