Phillip Jerdon, LMFT

Phillip Jerdon, LMFT

Psychotherapist
GA
Hi there, I'm Phillip! Hello! I'm Phillip Jerdon, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a Master’s degree in Counseling and Marriage and Family Therapy from Abilene Christian University. My specialty is helping people heal from trauma in a gentle, effective, and efficient way. My approach The first session will involve getting to know you better, understanding what brings you to therapy, and clarifying your goals. This includes exploring your history, symptoms, and more. I employ methods that help delete the old pain associated with traumatic memories. My focus I specialize in helping those who suffer the effects of trauma, which can include symptoms such as hypervigilance, nightmares, anxiety, depression, panic attacks, and more. I’m also experienced in effectively treating dissociative disorders and a wide range of emotional issues. My communication style I’m down to earth, empathic, and genuinely care about my clients’ healing. My style is laid back yet gently direct. I put my clients first and use a variety of tools to help them achieve their goals. My journey to mental healthcare Since my early 20s, I’ve had a strong desire to help others. I believe that with proper treatment, people can heal from trauma and live happy, fulfilled, productive lives. The methods I’ve been trained in are highly effective, gentle, and efficient, and it’s very gratifying to see clients achieve major improvement in a relatively short time. Many clients experience remarkable symptom relief after just one session and are often amazed by this. It’s heartbreaking how many people suffer needlessly from trauma and emotional issues, and it thrills me to see them heal and reach results they once thought impossible. My goals for you In the first session, I’ll ask you directly what you want to accomplish and how your life would be different without these problems. Sometimes I follow up with a Goals Worksheet to help further define and clarify your objectives.
