Ryan McMillian, MDiv, LMFT, serves as Director of Student Counseling at Princeton Theological Seminary, where his approach to counseling and leadership is rooted in a simple conviction: Crisis shouldn’t have to introduce people to care. His seven years as a hospital and hospice chaplain shaped his belief that care should be part of everyday life, not reserved for moments of crisis.
As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Ryan created God Built Love, a faith- and research-based couples workshop, with a book forthcoming.
Ryan is an AAMFT Approved Supervisor and former adjunct faculty member at Thomas Jefferson University, where he taught Foundations of Counseling to graduate students. Beyond the Seminary, Ryan speaks to church leaders and corporate audiences, including Fortune 500 organizations. His signature talk, Making Room When Your Hands Are Full, challenges the idea that the answer to carrying too much is simply learning to carry it better. He is a husband and father of three.
