Getting to know Dr. Anita Phillips

Hello, I'm Dr. Anita Phillips. I'm a Counseling Psychologist with over 20 years of experience. Throughout my career, I have worked extensively with people who are experiencing family stressors, depression, anxiety, social difficulties, and trauma.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I focus on helping clients recognize their strengths and build on what is already working in their lives. My goal is to support you in reaching your full potential using practical approaches. In our work together, I may use techniques from motivational interviewing to help you clarify goals and build motivation for change, mindfulness to increase awareness and manage stress, cognitive behavioral strategies to address unhelpful thought patterns, trauma-informed care to ensure you feel safe and understood, and person-centered therapy so you feel heard, respected, and supported throughout the process.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

When you work with me, you can expect a supportive and comfortable space where we can talk openly about what’s going on in your life. We’ll spend time understanding your concerns, identifying what might be getting in the way, and setting clear goals for what you’d like to change or improve. Together, we’ll decide on practical strategies to help you move forward. Sessions are flexible and shaped by your needs, preferences, and goals, so our work stays focused on what matters most to you.
