“I am more vulnerable than I thought, but stronger than I imagined.” - Tedeschi & Calhoun
Through establishing a safe, transparent and compassion-based therapeutic relationship, Philip believes we all can achieve meaningful self-worth and healthy relationships with others and the world around us.
Though he employs certain therapy modalities in his work, his client-centered approach ensures Philip is never formulaic. He believes every individual follows their own path toward healing. To that end, Philip works to keep the therapeutic experience eclectic; drawing on a combination of techniques related to Insight-Oriented Therapy, Relational Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, and Post Traumatic Growth.
In his practice, Philip focuses on many of the following topics:
Self-Image
Personal Discovery and Identity Development
Trauma (including intergenerational trauma or historical trauma)
Couples Therapy
Relationship Issues
Depression
Anxiety
Addiction
Intimate Partner Violence
Human Trafficking
Parenting
Life Transitions or Life Dissatisfaction
Grief and Loss
