History

Miller is founder of Wilbur Hot Springs Health Maintenance Organization providing healing, prevention, and health maintenance.[5]

Miller’s approaches to healing have been the subject of national television news reports (including segments on the news programs of Tom Brokaw, Dan Rather, David Brinkley and Phil Donahue), print media (Time (magazine) , Newsweek, and U.S. News & World Report), two film documentaries, and the book Gestalting Addiction.[6] He co-authored a weekly news column in the San Francisco Chronicle, while co-hosting a weekly syndicated radio program.

Radio Program

In addition to continuing his professional work in psychology, Miller currently hosts a weekly, live, call-in, radio program, "Mind Body Health & Politics,"[7] on his website MindBodyHealthpolitics.org. The program formerly aired on NPR affiliate KZYX & Z radio[8] in Mendocino County. In November 2020, Dr. Miller re-launched the program as a live, internet radio broadcast, with his guest, 4-term California Governor Jerry Brown.

Psychedelic Medicine

In 2017, Inner Traditions published Psychedelic Medicine[9] an edited compilation ofMiller's most popular radio interviews on the medicinal uses of psychedelics. The interviewees include Rick Doblin, Stanislav Grof, James Fadiman, Julie Holland, and Dennis McKenna, with each chapter dedicated to a particular substance (i.e., LSD, MDMA, Psilocybin, and Ayahuasca). The final chapter compares this approach to the traditional approach of psychiatric medication, based on the work of investigative journalist Robert Whitaker – author of Anatomy of an Epidemic.
